Tour of the Undead, Edinburgh Underground Ghost Tour

 

On this 75 minute evening walking tour scratch below the surface of Edinburgh’s stately thoroughfares and majestic monuments to discover the more bloody, brutal but always fascinating side of its history. Join one of our guides, dressed in period costume playing a real historical character, through the Old Town’s courts and back streets. Marvel at the Gothic glory of the haunted Greyfriars Kirkyard with its sinister tombs and cage-like graves. Descend into the underground vaults below South Bridge for the final part of the tour and see a section of built over eighteenth-century street. All the while your guide will tell you enthralling tales related to these sights involving bodysnatchers, witchfinders, murderers, cannibals and even… lawyers and politicians!
