Haunted Trails: Ghostly encounters and mysterious stories from the West Highland Way 

I find it a mystery that this channel doesn't have more subscribers! It's truly wonderful.

In 1990 my mate told me of an experience he had a couple of years earlier. He and three friends of his Dad's went to spend a weekend at a Bothy that they had helped restore. This Bothy is about a 2 - 3 hour walk off the West Highland Way passed Tyndrum. They had arrived and were unpacking their gear for a comfy weekend stay. He was standing in the living room area on his own when he heard someone clumping with heavy boots down the stairs which he thought was one of his dad's friends. The staircase is walled so you can't see until they are at the bottom and entering the living room. The footsteps reached the bottom and that's when he noticed looking out the window his dad's friends were all down by the Loch edge setting up fishing gear. He bolted out the living room in a flash. Now he told me about this experience the night before we were heading up for a weekend, I was cacking myself but it was a good weekend and a beautiful spot very tranquil. He now lives in South Africa and still talks about the experience to this day. I've been in the Drovers Inn many times, it truly is steeped in History.

My daughter, after listening to this video, stated, "Its worth listening to him just to hear his Scottish accent alone".

Beautiful scenery and stories well told. Makes me want to be there.

I would love to experience the magnificent old forests. There are spirits wherever you go, but Scotland certainly can claim the most vivid. Thank you for this wonderful journal!

That was so beautifully told, I felt like I was there. The history of Scotland is just incredible. The loyalty and spirit of the people past and present is keenly expressed in your stories. I arrive in Edinburgh next Tuesday. Unfortunately with chronic sciatica still, yet I won't be beaten. I may not be able to hike, but I can drive, and visit as many of these amazing places as possible. The Drovers Inn sounds like a must. Many, many thanks for this amazing, beautiful video and the hard work you put into it. A joy as always. Blessing to you and your family E.E.

Have stayed in The Haunted Room, room 6, at the Drovers on three occasions in last ten years. Never encountered anything paranormal although it has an eerie feel but great night's sleep each time! Love the Drovers!

Eerie Edinburgh videos never disappoint. Beautiful graphics and photography, enthralling tales and excellent narration. Thank you.

Marvellous Scotland.

Thank you, Mr. Eerie! Not only do you bring Scotland into my home, but I think you restored some of the brain cells I lost from listening to an appalling podcast earlier in the day.

Another gentle journey through a magnificent landscape with the memories of those who came before but will always remain. ✨️

Fantastic episode. So professional, and beautifully narrated.

Another episode of lovely photos and poetic tale-telling. Thank you.

You are a wonderful story tellar and I love your stories thank you so much. Please keep telling stories.

I didn't know that other lochs had a monster. Fascinating

Another cracking video..wonderful scenery and edited so well. Could listen to you for hours 😁

This video starts off like a movie-and the story telling is next level-definitely subscribing. ❤

The drowning pond and the snowed in village in the forest, the atmosphere was so spooky and sad too. Amazing channel 👍

Thank you. Personally speaking, this has to be your best yet, not only for the collected stories, but by the surpassing camerawork and the glorious landscape. A visual and imaginative treat; a real delight. Loved it.

Wonderful scenery, narration and stories. I thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you!

As always, a wonderful tale by an amazing storyteller. Thank you. 💙 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙

Omg what a stunning video eerie!!

Wonderful narration with spectacular film! Well done?

So magical

I absolutely love these videos. So well researched and with a narration that flows like poetry. Great work!

Thank you for another amazing video! So many spooky places in Scotland!❤

Beautiful narration and pictures. Increases my considerable pride in my Scottish heritage. Thank you.

The woodland areas with spooky trees, foggy trails,are the most amazing n creepy lookin and adventurous. Scotland, Ireland and Edinburg are the scariest places.. nice video

Wonderful video! Very evocative of times long ago!

Loved this video of the Highland scenery and ghost stories. This just makes me want to hike it even more now. The Highlands have always been on my bucket list.

Love the stories thank you .

What a geographically diverse country, Scotland is! Each unique area is stunning in its own way! Thanks so much for the work you put into this channel. I sincerely hope your channel continues to grow. Cheers from Canada!

Yet another amazing compilation of wondrous spooky tales from EE! Thank you so much for making my work a pleasure with your narration in the background!

This channel is one of the best so well done the narrator voice is wonderful , listening is a joy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you for a wonderful exploration of the west Highland way. I walked the route with a friend back in the late 80's and the experience was every bit as wonderful as your stunning photography. We had no ghostly encounters [fortunately] but we were startled by the boldness of a mouse in the bothy featured at the start of the film. It showed none of the timidity expected of a mouse, and was clearly well-used to human company, and accepted a small portion of our spartan fare before returning to a tiny hole in the fireplace! Thank you for sharing.

Lovely video , love the ghost stories , thankyou

A remarkable tour! So many such vids forget about the landscape and the hosts just natter on into the camera, so you have to look around them for the scenery. You narrations are always clearly written and perfect in tone.

I was intrigued by Buchanan Castle. My mother's side of the family figures in to the Clan Buchanan. Overall, another scintillating presentation. I love this channel❣󠁧󠁢󠁳

Again amazing work my friend! Informative and brilliantly put together

I don't know how to politely describe how good this channel is, but the phrase contains two hairy spherical items proudly swinging between my dogs hind legs! Another amazing video, thank you for all your hard work! I am going to have to walk the West Highland Way, it looks awesome!

I so love this channel ❤

That was beautiful from the picturesque scenery to the ghostly tales. Please do more like this. 👍 Thanks 😊

These old tales must not be forgotten. Thanks for keeping the lore alive :)

What fantastic video, so interesting!

I always enjoy your videos but, this one in particular was very good.

I've lived in a 1 bedroom apartment in a 1790 school house in Concord NH, USA. Been here for over 30 years. Yes, there are spirits here, but they are curious and friendly. I can relate to your video. Thank you. Great work.

Your voice is so perfect for these narratives. A pleasure to listen to. So lovely to have no hype & click bait. A refreshing change on YT! I hope your channel grows & grows.👍🏼

Beautiful scenery, left me begging for more, can’t wait to visit thank you.

I love your informative stories of Scotland and its mystical history!Please keep them up!!Thank you!!

I really enjoyed these stories! My heart broke for those who lost their lives to starvation and accidents! The Scottish lands are so beautiful, yet so unforgiving if you're caught in its powerful nature and weather. I visited scotland twice in my lifetime and I passed Glencoe on my way back to Invereness when touring the area on my motorbike. It was a beautiful sunny day and the landscape was truly breath taking. I was going to head further in to Glencoe, riding around the Loch Leven and back towards the A82 when I got this horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach. It was so bad that I had to pull over and catch my breath. Some locals come over to see if I was ok and I explained my sudden stomach ache. The waited with me until it passed but it was not shifting. I took some ibprofens and water. After an hour, my stomach ache was still there and worse. I was also feeling anxious and cold. I asked the locals how to get back to the A82 without going around the loch and they were so lovely, they showed me the way as the gentlemen's wife needed to head to Fort William anyway. I followed them to Fort William and stopped with them there for a break. My stomach had gone and the lady said I had colour back in my cheeks. I felt warmer and no longer feeling like something bad was goibg to happen. It was so strange, I cannot to this day explain the strange feeling. I was so thankful to the couple! I bought them a box of chocolates and a bottke of wine at a petrol station as a thank you. They did not have to do that for me but they were so kind. Still to this day I cannot think why I had that horrible stomach ache in my lower gut and the feeling of anxiety creep in. Never had those feelings before, ever! I often wonder if my body was sensing that something bad would happen to me if I continued around that loch and reacted to whatever was going on to keep me safe? Thanks for sharing this! I've subscribed as I love your storytelling. ❤

Another really interesting video. I would love to walk the West Highland Way. I do love Loch Lomond, and I have previously stopped at the Drover's Inn.

Hi love these stories ,not only are they educational ,but are entertaining too ,thanks for sharing ,

Beautiful country ! I hope to visit someday. ❤

Love this video. So interesting.

❤ I've learned more about Scottish history, locations and tales on your channel than I have anywhere else.

A great video which I enjoyed very much. Thank you!

I'll listen to this again, as a soothing bedtime story. Thank you kind sir.

So interesting thank you for doing this, Scotland is a beautiful place love Kim from Nottingham down in England xx

This was incredibly soothing and spoopy.

Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 is such an amazing fantastic and very beautiful country too I for one would love to visit Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Many many thanks again much appreciated

Top notch storytelling and visuals (as usual) loved this one. 🎒 🥾 🌲

Enjoyed this one, as always; have visited several of the places mentioned, but apart from the Drovers, never knew about the spooky associations. I've yet to stay overnight at the Drovers but have stopped off on a couple of occasions to eat-- they do great food and don't skimp on the portions as well, (at least that was the case the last time I was there), all served up by braw big laddies in kilts!🤩🤣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I enjoyed this video so much, gives me quite a wanderlust, together with some goosebumps. What a combo! Greetings from Prague

Always get excited to see a new video - amazing historian,you tell a tale so well 💯❤️

Incredible. Best one yet. Thank you

Absolutely 1st Class. Subbed.

Such a wonderful video! Thank you!

My grandma was from Scotland..how I wish I could visit this beautiful country... But following your story and walking the trail was magical.... Thankyou

An excellent collection of stories and legends! It is beautifully filmed and marvelously narrated. The artwork, too, is superb. Please keep more like this coming! So much is hidden to us today.

I love road trips, and the opportunity to see places I'd never get to see otherwise. Many place names are familiar, from the road trip I and my friends took many years ago.

Ive watched this 4 times and each time i learn something new and special xxxxx

Just wonderful thank you🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

Good morning hope you’re doing well. Have a great day from Sunny Northern Nevada.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This was an amazing journey! Absolutely beautiful country side! I hope to visit someday!❤

Great video 👍

I’ve walked the West Hyndland Way seen parts of Scotland I would never have seen, you brought it back to me we have a beautiful country full of great history

Adore your channel great content, great voice, great narration. In a word great!!! My mother was Scottish and we all had to do the annual pilgrimage ( that's what i named them) to Scotland. I've been to every place you talk about, wished i saw your channel then it would have made my visits so much more meaningful. Thank you for bringing back memories x

Brilliant video I visited the Highlands 20 years ago..beautiful place, full of history. Looking forward to returning

I could listen to anything you narrate for hours on end.

Been to the Drover's Inn a few times and stayed in Room 6 a couple of times. My brother and I are amateur ghost hunters, I go with him as 'stuff' happens to him. It didn't disappoint. Another great video, keep them coming. 😍👏👍

I love how the elk are all looking at the drone taking the video.

Bless the algorythm, instant subscribe. This is great.

Hello friend! I just caught you! How are you doing? I have been very busy but get your post late. Today tho...lol have a great week

Although I've never been in Scotland, I hope someday to visit. Such a beautiful country.

My Military Police unit did a month training tour stationed at Cultybraggan just outside of Comrie back in the early 90's. We operated a security check point for a TOC site, scrambled communications basically. Believe it was a training camp at that time, I remember exchanging one of my uniforms for a students uniform back then. Very comfy uniforms too, soft like a pair of pajama's! Still have it hanging in a closet here. I also remember going a few rounds with a poltergeist in a Quonset hut near the main gate one morning. Darn thing kept knocking over my mini-keg, wouldn't let me sleep. When I went outside to look about and see if it was just another soldier playing a prank on me, nobody was around and then I heard a god awful crying sound like a baby coming from a rolling hillside just across from the main gate. I think the civilians posted at the main gate were Paul and Sarah? Both very kind and friendly people. I asked Paul if there were any keyboards around that I could play, he said come back after lunch. He ended up taking me to what I thought was the Comrie town hall, he had a key. It had an old out of tune piano off to the left side that made it sound like an old western Honkey Tonk piano and a small stage straight ahead. I played for about 3 hours and when I finished I was shocked by a grand round of applause from about 12 people young and older who snuck in as quiet as ninja's and listened patiently. I'm so happy they enjoyed it though, that's why I've loved playing since I was 12 years old. Also went to a nice pub in Comrie and played a few rounds of darts and got nice and ripe :-D Everyone was so down to earth, so friendly and kind, even the leather punks hanging around the head shop were super cool. I didn't want to leave, or fly back home lol. I also had the opportunity to meet Paul and Sarah's supervisor, who seemed like quite a military lifer type. Paul just said she was having a bad day and she was usually quite nice. She was also one of the military personnel that had sighted a UFO back then too. I wish I could've retired in a small home near Comrie, that would've been a dream come true.

Those places have such a haunting atmosphere. I felt as if I was back in that time. The stories are narrated so well. Great channel! Very informative and steeped in history.

Superbly narrated and produced. Thank you!

Just found this channel its amazing have to share this out there, narrator makes it i so interesting aswell, well done 👍👍

I've never heard of the Loch Lomand monster. Nessie, Loch Ness monster I would say is the popular myth. Wonderful 👌👌👌🙏🙏❤❤

Wonderful film, I live in Kinlochleven and have walked parts of the WHW ✨️ I didn't know about the hauntings, that's a treat to hear 🎉 I've subscribed, so I'll not miss future films and can catch up with previous ones 😊

Ahhhhh! Smashing! ❤

Thank you so much. Absolutely phenomenal.

My Grandfather was from Dumfries I had two trips up to Scotland when I was very young. So young in fact I don’t remember but I’d love to go back for a holiday sometime. Really enjoy your uploads
