In Jan 1920, a “monster fungus” appeared on a wall in Fyvie Castle. Workmen removed the fungus and wall and found a woman’s skeleton. After, staff were plagued by noises and “a white ladye”. The castle’s laird had the bones dug up and placed back in the wall.

In 1898, the Dundee Courier reported a man’s skeleton was found inside a hayrick on the outskirts of Newport. As it was the previous year’s hayrick, it’s thought he fell asleep and was accidentally smothered by the others building the stack.
