It was here that Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, the beloved Queen mother, spent her childhood. This place is associated with many mystical stories and legends. The castle is home to several violent ghosts. Perhaps the worst thing is the Bearded Count (Lord Glamis, who lived here in the XV century). He was a cruel and merciless man. Once he decided to play cards on Sunday, but none of the servants and guests of the castle did not support his idea - because gambling on Sunday is a sin. But the count exclaimed: "Yes, I am not afraid to play a game of cards with the devil himself!"The next day a strange stranger came to the castle. He was the devil who had doomed the Bearded Count to eternal torment. Another Ghost of castle Glamis - the so-called White Lady. In 1532, the mistress of the castle lady Janet Douglas was accused of witchcraft and burned alive at the stake. Since then, the silhouette of the White Lady, engulfed in flames, regularly appears above the towers of the castle.
