A long history of murder, torture, hangings and plague has left a haunting legacy on the city of Edinburgh. For those who dare not take our evening Ghost and Ghouls tour, our Ghostly Underground tour will take you on a journey around the eerie old buildings and dark narrow closes of the Old Town by day, where your cloaked guide will reveal the true stories and terrifying secrets of Edinburgh's gruesome past.

Descend into the Vaults beneath the South Bridge, and as you are led through candlelit passages into dark, gloomy chambers, your guide will tell you tales of those who once occupied these Vaults and perhaps still do…

This dramatic tour combines the finest story telling, the most gruesome and ghostly history and the best underground Vaults, resulting in an unforgettable experience.
