Free tour of Edinburgh's dark side: murderers, witches and ghosts.
Tour description
Do you dare to discover another side of Edinburgh? This city, known for its medieval charm and fascinating history, hides a dark and mysterious side.
The streets you walk through during the day become the setting for haunting legends and lost souls when night falls. On this tour, we'll take you into the city's most haunting stories, where ghosts not only haunt history... but seem to be waiting for you to discover them!
Notice to the brave… and the fearful:
If you love hearing the bloody, spooky and ghostly stories of a city, this tour is for you!
Get ready to hear some of Edinburgh's scariest tales, learn its most disturbing legends, and if you're gifted, you might even meet one of its ghosts (we can't guarantee it, but you never know).
However, if you prefer a quieter tour, without references to those dark, bloody and ghostly stories, we recommend our morning tours. Remember, although we will cover many points from the historical part, this is a thematic tour.
It is important for you to know that this tour is NOT dramatized nor does it go into hidden areas of the city such as Mary King's Close or the Southbridge vaults.
