Your experience
Uncover Edinburgh’s grisliest stories on an atmospheric evening ghost tour through the Old Town and underground vaults, ending with candlelit storytelling and a traditional Scottish drink.
Getting started
Meet your guide at the Mercat Cross in Edinburgh’s Old Town. After ticket checks and audio device distribution, set off through the city’s historic closes and alleyways as darkness begins to settle over the streets.
What to expect
Follow a cloaked Storyteller through the medieval heart of Edinburgh, where tales of witchcraft, torture, public executions, and restless spirits linger around every corner. Walk the same streets once crowded with rioting mobs before descending into the Blair Street Underground Vaults, where chilling true stories unfold in the city's most atmospheric underground setting. The evening concludes in the candlelit surroundings of Megget’s Cellar, where more haunting tales await over a local drink.
