Today I'm going to dive into some creepy stories that are local to me. I've lived and worked in and around Dumbarton all my life so it seemed ideal to discuss a few of the legends attached to the place. Starting at Dumbarton Castle, where I used to be a steward, then moving along to Overtoun's notorious "dog suicide bridge" we'll find out about the supposed hauntings and mysterious, creepy events that have occurred here throughout the ages.
I'll also mention some other, less well known tales, including a UFO sighting, a poltergeist report, and a story that was recounted to me by the witness himself - a no-nonsense security guard who was frightened out of his wits during a bizarre encounter with an unknown entity!Join me for this fascinating dive into Dumbarton's ghostly history.If you're enjoying the show, and want to help out with the running costs, you can Buy Me A Coffee at the link below.
