This gory, graphic and spine-chilling Edinburgh ghost tour, takes you on a dark and eerie journey through Old Town’s sinister wynds and closes before descending into the haunted Blair Street Underground Vaults.

Hear of tales not fit for the glare of daylight — or for those under the age of 18. Descend into the sights, smells and sounds of auld Edinburgh. Perhaps most chilling of all is that these twisted tales of history at its worst are all true.

Your ghost tour begins above ground at the Mercat Cross, before making your way through the city’s narrow cobblestone streets where murders, misdeeds and mischief took place. You’ll learn about bloody plots that led to treason and torture, as well as secret lives that led to horrific deaths and tormented souls.

Pay attention to the shadows around you. Do you hear the creaking of the gallows, the shuffle of a foot, the ghostly echoes of a child's haunting song?

Is it your imagination, or did it just get a little colder? There’s an unsettling feel to our Blair Street Underground Vaults, like sinking into real history: the scent of leather, the flicker of a candle, the echo of a drip — or a footstep.
