New research has revealed the "most haunted" cities in Scotland based on factors such as reports of paranormal activity - and first place is neither Edinburgh or Glasgow.

According to the experts, Aberdeen is the most haunted city in both Scotland and the UK. The port city was found to have 233 memorials and 41.1 vacant properties per 10,000 people.

Alan Boswell Group found that the Granite City has had 20 reports or paranormal activity, or 0.11 per 10,000 people. The experts also state that Aberdeen has 118 homes that were built before 1918 for every 10,000 residents.

In terms of particular spooky buildings in Aberdeen, the 19th-century Norwood Hall Hotel has earned a reputation amongst locals and visitors alike for strange goings-on. According to legend, the ghosts of former owner James Ogston, his wife, and his mistress roam the hotel — in particular its dining room and main staircase.
