A Piece of Aliester Crowley's Scottish Lair For Sale
Filed under: Estates
It's not quite a haunted house but this plot of land at Boleskine Bay, on Loch Ness in Scotland carries a sinister past. It was once owned by the "Beast of Boleskine", occultist Aleister Crowley. Crowley, an author, mountaineer and practitioner of the black arts, owned the Boleskine Estate between 1899 and 1913. The estate was the focus for many of Crowley's occult activities and experiments. His house later became the home of guitar player Jimmy Page.
The Guardian quotes a real estate agent from Strutt and Parker which says that there has been interest in the 1.9-acre plot of land because of the Crowley connection. Crowley's home is owned by different people but this plot of land has been in the same family for 40 years. The land has 140 feet of the Loch Ness foreshore and planning permission for a three-bedroom log house. It is listed for £176,000.
