Dark Miles: Scotland's Most Haunted Road

Somewhere between Gretna and Annan lies a stretch of road that has terrified drivers for decades. Apparitions on the verge. A phantom woman in black. A spectral coach hurtling through the night. And, most chilling of all, a silent procession of pale, tattered figures crossing in the dark. In this episode, we dive into one of Scotland’s strangest and most persistent ghost stories: the hauntings of the A75. Drawing on real witness accounts from as far back as the 1950s and as recently as the 2000s, we explore what might lie behind the road’s reputation as a hotspot of uncanny encounters. Are these residual echoes of the past? Warnings? Or something else entirely?
