    Ghosts at Aberdeen Bus Station and Depot - Captain Beaton Gordon Highlanders Ghost

    - Hauntings of the former Barracks and tram depot.



    In King Street, Aberdeen the First Grampian Bus Group have a depot and station. The building was originally an army barracks from the 1860's. In 1914 the building was transferred over to the Aberdeen Corporation Tramways and was temporarily transferred back to the military during the First World War.





    After the war parts of the building were used to house the families of the transport staff. Soon after the war strange occurrences have been reported. These include:


    Sightings of a soldier in khaki uniform with bandages around his head and hands.


    Glimpses of a soldier in uniform. These have been reported as wearing white spats, a kilt and a greatcoat.


    Drivers feeling cold drafts of air on their necks.


    Cold spots in parts of the building.


    Unexplained tapings on the windows.


    Lights being switching off and on of their own accord.


    It is thought that the ghost is the spirit of Captain Beaton, a Gordon Highlander Officer who hanged himself in the barracks just before a posting to France in the First World War.
