Description

On the southeastern shore of Loch Ness sits Boleskine House—a manor with a history as dark and mysterious as the legendary waters below it. Built in the 1760s on allegedly cursed ground, this house has been the site of occult rituals, unexplained deaths, celebrity obsession, and devastating fires that nearly erased it from existence.

In this comprehensive 90-minute investigation, we explore:

• The legend of the 13th-century church that burned with its entire congregation inside
• Colonel Archibald Fraser's act of political revenge in building the house
• Aleister Crowley's infamous 1899 attempt to summon demons—and his failure to properly banish them
• The tragic consequences for those who lived and worked at Boleskine during Crowley's tenure
• Major Edward Grant's 1960 suicide in Crowley's former ritual room
• Jimmy Page's fascination with Crowley and his 21-year ownership of the property
• Malcolm Dent's experiences as caretaker, including unexplained phenomena and ghostly encounters
• The mysterious 2015 fire that destroyed 60% of the house during Christmas shopping
• The suspected 2019 arson attack just days after new owners purchased the property
• The ongoing restoration by the Boleskine House Foundation and plans to open to the public

This is a fact-based investigation drawing from historical records, documented accounts, and verified sources. No speculation, no exaggeration—just the remarkable true story of one of Britain's most notorious properties.
