PARANORMAL INVESTIGATION OF BALGONIE CASTLEBY ANDREW HENNESSEY OF ALTERNATE SCOTLAND.COMhttp://www.cafepress.com/ghosthighlander the image on T shirts, prints, mugs etcLOCATION : about a mile from the railway station at Markinch in Fife, Scotland and close to the M90/A92/A911AREA OF CASTLE EVALUATED: SURVEILLANCE OF THE CASTLE WALLS AND PARAPETSBACKGROUNDBALGONIE CASTLE - IS A 14TH CENTURY TOWER HOUSE COMPRISED OF FIVE STOREYS, WITH WALLS UP TO 2.4 METRES THICK. THESE INCORPORATE A LARGE HALL, CHAPEL AND A VAULTED BASEMENT. PURPORTED TO HAVE BEEN BUILT BY SIR THOMAS SIBBALD, LORD HIGH TREASURER OF SCOTLAND BUT PASSED AT THE END OF THE 15TH CENTURY TO SIR ROBERT LUNDIE BY MARRIAGE. IN 1716, THE CASTLE WAS CAPTURED AND SET ON FIRE BY ROB ROY MACGREGOR AND HIS CLANSMEN. IT WAS IN A POOR STATE OF REPAIR IN THE 1960S BUT HAS BEEN SUBSEQUENTLY RESTORED BY TODAYS "LAIRD OF BALGONIE".THE CASTLE IS REPUTED TO HAVE AT LEAST 12 DIFFERENT GHOSTS, AND PHANTOM PHENOMENA AMONGST WHOM ARE; A GHOSTLY OLD MAN, A HEAD AND A COLLAR, A HOODED FIGURE, A MAN DRESSED IN MEDIEVAL CLOTHING, A 17TH CENTURY SOLDIER AND A PHANTOM DOG, AND ALSO KOBOLD-LIKE CREATURES THAT HAVE BEEN SEEN TO ROOST AND BEEN PHOTOGRAPHED IN THE PARAPETS. THE MOST FAMOUS SPECTRE IS A "GREEN LADY" CALLED LOCALLY 'GREEN JEANNIE' "RECORDED EVEN IN 1842 AS BEING A WELL KNOWN PHANTOM". HER APPARITION HAS BEEN WITNESSED MANY TIMES IN RECENT YEARS, ALLEGEDLY TURNING UP IN SOMEONE'S WEDDING PICTURES AFTER A RECEPTION. THE GREEN LADY OR "GREEN JEANIE" AS SHE IS KNOWN WALKS THROUGH THE DERELICT OUTHOUSES STARTING FROM THE CHAPEL HEADING OUTWARDS AND HAS ALSO BEEN SEEN IN THE GROUNDS SURROUNDING THE CASTLE WALLS.ACCORDING TO THE LAIRD, SIGHTINGS INCLUDE, AN OLD GENTLEMAN IN THE COURT YARD AROUND THE DERELICT BUILDINGS NEAR THE WELL,THE GREAT HALL SEEMS TO BE THE MAIN FOCUS OF ACTIVITY, FOR THE SIGHTINGS THERE HAVE INCLUDED INDISTINCT SHAPES AND DISEMBODIED VOICES ENGAGED IN MUFFLED CONVERSATION. IN THE DINING ROOM, A HEADLESS SOLDIER AND AN OLD LADY REPUTE TO FREQUENT THIS AREA, AND WHISPERS ARE HEARD IN THIS AREA.ALTERNATE SCOTLAND INVESTIGATIONON THE 29TH NOVEMBER 2012 AT ABOUT 16.21 HRS THE CASTLE WAS SURVEYED FROM THE MARKINCH ROAD ABOVE THE CASTLE BY PARANORMAL INVESTIGATOR AND PHOTOGRAPHER ANDREW HENNESSEY IN THE HOURS OF TWILIGHT IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE SETTING OF THE WINTER SUN.TWILIGHT AFFORDS AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEE BOTH REFLECTED LIGHT AND IS ALSO DIM ENOUGH TO PICK OUT ANYTHING INTERDIMENSIONAL THAT IS GLOWING BY ITS OWN LIGHT.A SERIES OF PICTURES WERE TAKEN WITH A 200MM ZOOM LENS WITH A DIGITAL SLR CAMERA AND SUBSEQUENT EXAMINATION OF THOSE SHOW AN UPPER PARAPET OF THE CASTLE WALL ALTERNATELY HAVING ONLY STONEWORK SHOWING AND THEN A MALE PHANTOM FIGURE OF AN APPEARANCE REMINISCENT OF THE MEDIEVAL. THE BARE ARMED POSSIBLY MEDIEVAL-LOOKING PHANTOM WITH LOWER ARMS EXPOSED FROM ROLLED UP BULKY SHIRT SLEEVES, AND WEARING WHAT APPEARED TO BE BODICE AND LEGGINGS WAS SEEN LEANING ON THE STONE WITH THE BARE LOWER ARM BENDING AT THE ELBOW AND FACING THE ARM INWARDS TOWARDS THE BODY. THEN THE PHANTOM EXTENDS ITS ARM STRAIGHT AWAY FROM THE BODY LEANING AND THEN NOT LEANING ON THE WRIST. SOLID TREE BRANCHES BEHIND THE ARM-APPENDAGE OF THE ALLEGED PHANTOM WOULD NOT BEND AT RIGHT ANGLES AND THEN TOTALLY DISAPPEAR.NEXT IN SHOT IN THIS SEQUENCE OF PHOTOGRAPHS ARE THE TREES AND VISIBLE TREE BRANCHES AND STONEWORK BEHIND THIS APPARITION BUT NO PHANTOM. ONE COULD BE TEMPTED TO START WRITING OFF THE PHANTOM ARMS AND LIMBS, HEAD AND TORSO AS STONE AND TREES EXCEPT THERE IS ACTUALLY NO ROUNDED STONE WHERE THE 'HEAD' IS ON THAT PART OF THE PARAPET AS SUBSEQUENT PICTURES SHOW, NOR ANY PERMANENT TREE BRANCHES VISIBLE. ALSO MANY PICTURES TAKEN WITHIN THE SPACE OF 20 MINUTES ALL FROM THE SAME SPOT AND VIEWPOINT DO NOT SHOW THE PHANTOM FIGURE IN ALL OF THEM.AT ONE POINT IN THE SEQUENCE OF PICTURES THE ROUND HEAD OF THE PHANTOM GIVES WAY TO THE LARGER SQUARE BLOCKS OF THE WALL BEHIND IT.THAT SMALL CIRCULAR FLAT OBJECT UNDER HIS LEFT ARM APPEARS TO BE ON ENHANCEMENT A HIGHLANDERS SHIELD IN USE DURING THE 17TH AND 18TH CENTURY CALLED A TARGE - WHICH DATES THE GHOST TO THE TIME THAT ROB ROY MACGREGOR STORMED AND TOOK THE CASTLE IN 1716 WITH 200 HIGHLANDERS. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, AS THE PHANTOM PROGRESSIVELY FADES INTO THE STONE AND TREES BACKDROP - WHAT LOOKS LIKE THREE OR FOUR GREYS, SMALL HUMANOID FORMS ABOUT 3 OR 4 FEET TALL APPEAR TO OCCUPY THE PARAPET WHERE THE STRAIGHT TRAILING PHANTOM ARM WAS.AT THIS POINT NO LOWER TREE BRANCHES BEHIND ARE VISIBLE AS THEY ARE TOTALLY OBSCURED BY THE 'GREYS/ELEMENTALS' GATHERED ON THE PARAPET.COMPARISON WITH OTHER PICTURES THAT HAVE NO PHENOMENON SHOW THAT THERE IS A LOWER TREE LIMB BEHIND THE PARAPET THAT SHOULD BE VISIBLE BUT IS NOT AS IT IS OBSCURED BY THESE SMALL HUMANOID FORMS.THE PICTURES ARE NOT SHARP BUT THEY DO SEEM TO INDICATE THAT THE PARAPET BEING PHOTOGRAPHED IS BEING OCCUPIED AND RE-OCCUPIED BY CHANGING FORMS AND THAT SOME OF THESE CHANGING FORMS WHICH LOOK HUMANOID ARE OBSCURING THE VISIBLE STONEWORK AND TREES.I WOULD CONCLUDE THAT BALGONIE CASTLE IS A HUB OF PARANORMAL ACTIVITY WELL WORTH A VISIT. PICTURES OF THESE THINGS TO COME SOON.

Date: November 3 or 4, 2003 Time: Approx: 1:00 p.m. Edition of witnesses: 1Number of Objects: 1Shape of Objects: Snakelike, changing to globular shape. "Ample Environment OF EVENT/SIGHTING:" It was Melbourne Cup Day 2003, about 1:00 in the afternoon, warm and agile with a clear blue sky. I was walking south suited ahead of time Nowra Meeting in the central shopping centre at the same time as I heard seagulls screeching raucously overhead. This was atypical as they do not regularly ditch the geared up area and fly towards the Meeting.
Self a working birdwatcher, I looked up and noticed a strange object in the sky in the alleyway from wherever the plants were opportunity.
It was black and execution extremely in the sky, alternately emergent and sinking. After that it began to climb fairly quick utterly best quality the Woolworths congregation,"straightening out" vertically, appearing to twist and bubble. It was jet black and did not show any view at all of the thin rays. It appeared to suffer clippings set at a tally angle.
As it continued to issue forth quick, it changed shape downright to follow a upper globular shape, solid, upper "UFO bearing in mind".
I continued to watch as it rose so high wearing the sky, almost exact up, that it became a far-off black dot. It changeably flashed gray, with gray once more appearing bearing in mind a wink, ahead of time ready from sight after about 3 seconds of glittery. I proposal it was very strange as it had not reflected any rays up until that weight.
The sighting consumed me very confused and I repeatedly wondered about it. After that, a pair of existence in imitation of I happened to cultivate across the "Rense website" and saw photos of an peer object in a photo of a human being called "Mona Farrell position in a crop circle" in Canada. At hand were other photos of the object, peer to what I saw ahead of time it changed shape. Everyone had optional it possibly will be a lens encouragement as no one had definitely seen the object in the photos but I absorb for consequential that it is a real object in the sky, but I suffer no theory as to what it possibly will be. If you suffer seen whatever bearing in mind this in the exceptionally area grab be arrange abundance to contact Brian Vike at: "sighting@telus.net" with the details of your sighting. "All right information is cold incoming."
