    Wow! This is truly so eerie, yet beautiful at the same time! The green path and trees are stunning as you make your way to the old chapel. Amazing it is dating back to the 400s, wow. The chapel is so picturesque, and does give you the vibe of being watched. Such an old graveyard there too. The music you paired this footage with is perfect! The old stones with the inscriptions are incredible, wow. Amazing how old they are. I can see why you felt uneasy, and the raven sounds would certainly add to the eerie paranormal presence. Fantastic video as always!

    Loved seeing this beautiful chapel and graveyard, Paul. Looks so lovely and peaceful. But the stories and music did bring about a sense of unease. Haunted, I don't know, but you did a masterful job of making it seem so. Loved it Paul!

      Hi Dave n Kathy, this place was about as hermit friendly as you could get. When the birds started I did have that uneasy feeling. There are stories of it being haunted and I'm glad I only found out after the fact. Anyway I thought it would be a good one for around Halloween time. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you very much for watching. Have a great weekend 🙂👍Paul

    Hi Paul,
    Wow ravens/crows' sounds at the opening suggest the mood of the film...Halloween?
    Your voiceover's sounds, pace, tone, and music are superb to this presentation.
    Is those red brick building original? or restored. Amazing to see your visit 1:27 no wonder why you felt you have been watched.
    Fantastic filming 4:05 I can clearly see the carvings
    Great effect, zooming our the camera. wow
    Now I feel I have been watch in my living room....
    Another crafty video. Thank YOU.
    So sorry I didn't know you had premiere and I just found out you had one.

    • @TheHikingHermit
      @TheHikingHermit  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Ms Kayak, those ravens/crow noises were actually recorded while there! The place did creep me out a bit and I tried to narrate it as such. The building is completely original and from the late 1800s. There used to be another church and/or monastery there and hence the finding of the old stones. Did you see the face? Thank you so much for watching. Have a great weekend 👍🙂 Paul

    Oo Paul that did look a bit scary with what you told us . The Christian history here is so old and the chapel is in a beautiful location and you had lovely weather, it would definitely have been scarier on a dull day 😃 Fabulous to see some of the oldest memorials in Scotland. Gorgeous but very lonely looking, I don't think I would have been brave enough to go even with Alf and out kids but it was really good to see it through your video. 👍~ Anna

    Exploring this old chapel and graveyard is like stepping into a beautifully eerie world. The history here is fascinating, and I must say, the haunting undertone in your narration and music added an extra layer of spookiness to this hermit-friendly environment. Your video captured the essence of the place so well, especially the carvings. I also couldn't help but feel the same eerie sensation of being watched, and I wasn't even there in person! 🕵‍♂ The hermit vibe suits this location perfectly. Thanks for another intriguing adventure, Paul. 🌲👻

    • @TheHikingHermit
      @TheHikingHermit  ปีที่แล้ว

      This sure was an eerie place especially when those ravens/crows started making themselves heard. This place is pretty ancient in terms of a place of worship and burial grounds so who knows what lurks there. I didn't hang around too much longer after that even tho it was somewhat hermit friendly. I'm glad you enjoyed the tour and the history. I thought a good one for around Halloween. Thanks for watching. Have a great day 👍🙂Paul

    My family holiday was at Sandhead caravan park in the summer of 1981 and we visited this place in the evening. I was 16 at the time and it has always stuck in my memory. It was very peaceful and tranquil and it was a nice summer evening; in fact, just like your video here. But as the sun slowly set and the sky became tinged with red, and some colder wind came in from the sea, the atmosphere changed. Crows or ravens coming back to roost for the night. After a while here, you get a sense that you have "overstayed your welcome". My dad looked around and then said "Ok...let's get back to the car now". Later in the week, an old lady at the village pub said we should not go there and should not go back. It's a strange place. Yes, a lot of people report a sense of being watched. One of the stones reads in Latin: ‘Here lie the holy and chief priests, Ides, Viventius and Mavorius’ so it seems these 'high priests' were buried around here a very long time ago. Another stone apparantly alludes to the Book of Revelations, which of course is a scary part of the Bible. One of the inscriptions INITIUM ET FINIS, translates to "The beginning and the end".

    • @TheHikingHermit
      @TheHikingHermit  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That is an interesting story and I did actually feel uneasy after a time there. I thought it was the crows/ravens making their noise. I was glad I read the haunted stories after the fact or I may have not contained the urge to run. I certainly shall be in no hurry to return I have to admit. Thank you for the story and cementing the idea that I shall not make a return visit.

      @@TheHikingHermit You should return:) Did you notice that some of the gravestones have skulls and crossbones on them? This was common on grave stones from the 18-19th century as a reminder of mortality. These symbols were part of a concept called "Memento Mori," which translates into "Remember that you will die." It was a reminder to the living visiting the graveyard that they too will die, and therefore you should live the best life that you can while you still can. In your video at around 2.06, the inscription on that grave reads:"Long days and nights he bore great pain, physicians tried but all in vain, then God in his wisdom thought it best, to end his pain and give him rest". I always remembered that and it unsettled me at the time. Whoever it was, they had already been in the ground for 140-160 years before I visited on that June night in 1981. It's either that grave or the one next to it, or one along that row. It may be weathered away now but if anyone visits they can look out for it. It is probably still readable.

      @@sdm7372 I was a little unnerved on my visit. I have to admit I didn't look at the grave stones in detail but it seems I may have been missing out. Also I noticed on my video but didn't see it at the time what looks like a face and a hand on the grave stone at around 1:50 It's a spooky place that's for sure

      @@TheHikingHermit Yikes--what is that on the gravestone at 1.50?! Saw it on your other vid as well. It looks like some demonic face and hand. That was definitely not there in 1981. I can say that for a fact. Maybe it is weathering or some joker painted it. Either way it is seriously creepy.

    Well it does look a very atmospheric place Paul. Amazing history. Memorials from the 400’s. That’s crazy!!
    The ravens and crows made it even more atmospheric
    Put it this way, I wouldn’t want to walk up that path at dusk 😨😨😃😃

      Hi Dave, I'm not sure I would want to return at dusk either. It was spooky enough in broad daylight when the birds started. It sure is an ancient place of worship. I thought a good one for around Halloween. Thank you very much for taking time to watch. Have a great weekend 🙂👍Paul

    i was out pretending to have friends, and missed the premier. so to make up for it, you're getting 2 watches from me. one on the tv in front of me, and one on my computer so i can comment. :D this might have to be my new strategy but will probably make my comments even longer and babbley! 🤣 it's almost too bad you had such perfect blue skies for this spooky destination. your angles really set a mood though with the music. and your description of feeling watched creeped me out. 👀hope you have a great weekend paul! 🛴❤

      Hi Anne, I'm sure you have friends. Probably more than a hermit 😂 It was quite a creepy place to be. I guess the video is something a bit different from me but thought apt around Halloween. Tho the place genuinely did creep me out. I thought it was the ravens but since read on the Internet that it's haunted. Did you see the face? Thank you so much for the double helping of watch. Have a great weekend 🙂👍Paul

    I always wonder how scared you would feel if you don't hear about the place being scary before you go. Without the sound, I'd just say it looks like a beautiful old little chapel. But then again, I am not a huge fan of ghosts and such.
