In November of 2022, Mark Wallbank from Haunted Auckland and Paranormal New Zealand travelled to Scotland to investigate Torwood House with Edinburgh-based paranormal team, Phantom Seekers Paranormal. Also joining us were members of Spirit Seekers and Whispering Souls.

Torwood Castle is a ruined 16th-century L-plan castle near the village of Torwood, in the Falkirk Council area of central Scotland. It was designated as a Category A listed building in 1979.

The roofless castle is three storeys tall and comprises a vaulted ground floor, a first floor and an attic. The short wing housed the staircase and has gables at its north and south ends. It had a cobbled courtyard enclosed by three ranges of buildings, although little remains of them. Two rooms of the north range were excavated in 1999, revealing a kitchen and a well room.
The estate was held originally by the Foresters of Garden, who were the foresters responsible for the nearby Royal Forest of Tor Wood from the second half of the 15th century until the mid-17th century.
Based on the date found on a carved stone panel found not far from the castle in 1918, the castle has been estimated as being built around 1566 for Sir Alexander Forrester. It passed to Clan Baillie in the early 16th century and then to George, 1st Lord Forrester in 1635.
The castle was purchased by Gordon Millar in 1957, who began to restore it, but he was only able to stabilise the stonework, before his death in 1998.

In September 2018, Mr Gary Grant, a local man and good friend of Gordon's, moved into the castle, in order to protect it from vandalism, as it was not secured.
Gary stays on the premises and continues with maintaining the castle as best as he can in honour of his friend.

Many thanks to Eileen Murray of Phantom Seekers Paranormal for organising this investigation for me. - Mark
