The account names both witnesses and gives a month and year, which is better than most pub ghost stories. Agnes McInnes had locked up and had been cleaning the toilets. When she came out she saw the man, went to the bar, came back, and found him gone. She reported to Cormack in the kitchen. He searched the pub and found nothing, and his dog, which normally went with him on his round, would not come.
The key detail is that McInnes was a small child when Walker died and had never met him, yet her description matched how he dressed. Later staff have described a presence in the lounge and movement at the edge of vision. The story comes from the About Aberdeen site. The pub's exact address is not given in it, so the map point is the city centre only.
