The Fire at Kilbirnie Place, 1757

The source is Wikipedia's article on Kilbirnie Place, which does not say what the 'supernatural forces' were supposed to be. The same article notes that carved Gothic lettering in the keep's fireplace reading 'Maria' may have been an 'apotropaic', or protective, device against the entry of evil spirits by the chimney. The fire is a fact, and the supernatural attribution is the belief recorded. The ruin of the old keep stands on the edge of Kilbirnie.
