The Haunting: Stirling, Scotland



First of all, Stirling is a beautiful place. The castle is lovely, and we had a great time there (Lucila and I danced with the ladies of the court and had lunch and I ate bambi and all that). People were really friendly, and we had nice chats with shopkeepers.

But.

The city also looked eerily mysterious that day (specially the graveyard, there was one tomb we couldn't photograph due to the weird energies at play)

If I ever write a mystery thriller, I will set it at Stirling during winter.

(notice most pictures of "daylight" -not night- of ours are between 10 am and 3pm. The sun starts to set 4pm, so our night photos are from there onwards) The following pictures were taken around 12pm/1pm )
