A popular belief is that bad luck will befall anyone who walks on the 13th step. Either way, the staircase is now sealed off for safety purposes.
Before her death, Julia requested to be buried at the entrance of the church so anyone who walked in would step over her grave.
Her grave is marked by a stone that is shaped like a Celtic cross with a hole in its center. Many people say that the Black Nun still haunts Bonamargy Friary to this day.
One day, a group of people visiting the site called out to Julia’s spirit, and they claimed that she answered back, “I was killed.”
Furthermore, locals have reported hearing strange noises when walking through the ruins or even spotting a lady dressed in black robes.
