The Ghost Hunt is Afoot!

An interactive, investigation-led evening inside one of Scotland’s most atmospheric historic houses — where every room holds a story.
This Summer Solstice weekend, Mostly Ghostly invites you to explore Broughton House after hours — returning for a second public paranormal investigation in this remarkable building.

Once home to artist and collector E. A. Hornel, Broughton House is rich in character and history, with a number of curious experiences reported. Staff have spoken of footsteps where none should be, subtle movements inside, and — more recently — a shutter found open despite being securely closed.

Over the course of the evening, guests will take part in small-group sessions using traditional ghost-hunting techniques — including dowsing rods, pendulums, mirror work, trigger objects, and basic audio recording — all grounded in carefully researched history and local folklore.

The evening will also include time to explore rooms linked to past accounts of unusual activity, the opportunity to view a shawl from the National Trust for Scotland’s collection, connected to the 1862 case of Mary Timney, and a short outdoor session in the garden, guided by the atmosphere of the Summer Solstice night.

With limited places available, this is a rare opportunity to experience Broughton House after hours and to explore its more unusual elements as the evening unfolds.

A good old-fashioned ghost hunt — in every sense.
