Every place has a history. Every history leaves its mark. And sometimes, those marks become ghosts. Spirits from the Top Shelf is an immersive journey through the landscapes, history and folklore of some of the world's most intriguing haunted places. Each episode explores the geography and character of a location, meets the people who lived there, and only then encounters the ghost, because behind every haunting lies a story, and often the most compelling mystery is the human events that gave rise to the legend. The series begins in Scotland, inspired by Peter Underwood's A Gazetteer of Scottish Ghosts, found by host Colin on a childhood visit to Edinburgh Castle. Later seasons will travel to Ireland, England, Australia and beyond. Whether you believe in ghosts or simply enjoy a compelling story, pour yourself a wee dram, settle into your favourite chair, and join us.
