This creepy cross-stitch pattern entitled Dismal Castle really sets the tone with its dismal skies and Gothic undertones. The gray skies surrounding it add to its mystique. Notice, if you will, that nothing can be seen from its windows, but it has an air about it that says it's situated in the perfect place on Calton Hill. The castle is actually a famous one called the Governor's House, located in Edinburgh, Scotland, and is often mistaken for Edinburgh Castle. Because of its looks and the experiences of those who dared to enter it, this castle has made the list of "Haunted Castles in Scotland." Although this may be the case, it has a distinct look that some may find charming and beautiful, due to its Gothic architectural style if you like that sort of thing. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
