The Old Spedling Castle´s Ghost´s Dance is a dance where the 'standing' bottom man or top lady takes the part of the ghost to enter the dance. Thus, it is somehow a dance for 3 couples and a ghost in a 4 couple longwise set.

It was first tried at a dance workshop in 2000 led by Jim Rae at the Kuckucksnest (=cuckoo's nest) in Schl&uuml;chtern, Germany. After a few more changes it was then published in his "A Dancing Tour Volume 2" in 2004.

The recording of the tune by Green Ginger named "<<http://my.strathspey.org/dd/recording/4971/|The Old Spedling Castle's Ghost's Dance>>" (also mentioned by Jim Rae in "A Dancing Tour Volume 2") is only four times through. Thus, this recording might not be well suitable, if one wants to perform the dance the full eight times through in one go.

Although the name of the dance has "Spedling" (with a G) the notes refer to "Spedlins Tower" (without a G).
