It's no coincidence that in Edinburgh you can take a course in Parapsychology. The Scottish capital is famously haunted and there have been countless sightings of ghosts and phantoms. Are you brave enough to take our ghost tour of Edinburgh?
Ghost Tour of Edinburgh
Wars, murders, witch burnings, and many other gruesome periods throughout Edinburgh's history have made it a notoriously haunted city.
This walking tour will begin at the William Chambers Monument and will take you away from the traditional routes through the city and into the dark corners which hide Edinburgh's most sinister secrets.
Throughout the walking tour, the guide will thrill you with macabre, twisted tales from days gone by. You'll learn about witches and ghosts from the city's past and find out which ones are still lurking around today.
While walking through the city, you'll be able to soak up every creepy nook and cranny of the city and search for signs of ghosts and ghouls in iconic places. The itinerary will take us to important historical sites such as Edinburgh Castle, Grey Friars Kirkyard, and the Old Tollbooth Prison. We'll also do fun games and quizzes throughout!
After a total of 2 hours, our tour of Edinburgh's mysteries and secrets will come to an end on Royal Mile at the beautiful St Giles Cathedral.
