"Inverness offers a captivating blend of Highland charm and mystique, perfect to immerse yourself in Scotland's ghostly tales and supernatural folklore.
"There have been 12 paranormal sightings in Inverness, including at Eden Court Theatre, where multiple hauntings have supposedly occurred: an usher, who was alone at the time, reported feeling a strong tug on her shirt collar; technicians reported witnessing strange ghostly figures standing in the auditorium; and even a small child was seen standing in the wings during a performance.
"For the ultimate ghostly experience, consider the Inverness Ghost Walk tour."
Places in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth, Aberdeen, Stirling, Dundee and Dunfermline were also highlighted for anyone who wants to "embrace the Halloween spirit".
