The castle is reported be haunted by two ladies, one white and one blue. Legend has it that the blue lady was the lover of a knight who was killed in a fight near the foot of the castle. So bereaved, she threw herself off the battlements, falling to her death. She is said to be seen wringing her hands and walking about the battlements. The owner of the castle had inherited the lands of a nearby abbey that had been taken from the Church. This white lady is said to have inflicted many injuries upon the man during a dream so that he would return the property to the church. It is said that his screams may be heard in the room and the white lady walks around.
