History

There are many reports of a spirit who is beleived to be Robert Scott. He was employed as the gamekeeper at the house for many years. It is reported that Scott was murdered by a poacher and his angry spirit still wanders the grounds today. His ghostly apparition is often seen walking down the Gothic staircase leading to the Castle. His presence is often reported by Psychic Mediums, all insisting his spirit is consumed with rage over his untimely and unjust killing. There are regularly reports of the sound of giggling children echoing through the long corridors and rooms of the family areas. There have also been sightings of children in Victorian dress drifting in and out of doorways and mischievously moving objects.
The dominating figure of what is beleived to be the blacksmith is a familiar sighting to many of the gamekeepers and gardening staff who maintain the vast castle grounds. Even the night security guards often report sounds of running footsteps and chattering voices, but can give no explanation due there being no living intruder.
Reports of cold spots and orbs are a very common phenomena in the Castle, it appears the Castle and surrounding grounds is a haven of psychic energy.
Projectiles have been thrown at many who have conducted seances and endeavour to communicate with the spirits. Perhaps the most violent and angry spirit is reported to be that of Robert Scott who is said to have slammed doors and hurled projectiles, and emit a foreboding presence.

EXCELLENT!! I am saying this since you said many have downloaded this image and it is widely used. Sort of your Excalibur, so Just an Idea.   What if you add a small variation like that Manse is growing out of the Ground and the roots are visible on the underneath,  yet the roots are inhabited by specter's and such, that can be seen in the stonework if people look closely enough at the image. Even add some pixel manipulation that makes some pop out if viewed thru a different filter even make some look like their eyes are following you with inverse shaders.  Again just an idea. Great Work.
