Wandering
Willie
is
a
wandering
musician
in
Sir
Walter
Scott’s
“Redgauntlet”
-
one
of
the
major
highlights
of
the
novel
is
"Wandering
Willie's
Tale",
a
ghost
story
with
the
climax
being
an
encounter
between
Willie's
grandfather,
Steenie
Steenson
and
the
ghost
of
his
landlord
Robert
Redgauntlet.
All
of
the
supernatural
events
have
rational
explanations which Willie mentions but vehemently denies.
