What Can I Expect
Prepare for spookiness on the Edinburgh ghost walking tour! Spend two hours delving into some of the murkiest parts of the Scottish capital's history on these fascinating night time tours hosted by an expert guide.
Ghosts, ghouls, gruesome goings on, murders and more are the order of the day for these evening walking tours. You’ll be lifting the lid on the most heinous parts of Edinburgh’s history, hearing about some very colourful characters as you go.
Find out why fish wife Maggie Dickson’s fate earned her the nickname ‘Half Hangit Maggie’. Hear about the heinous murders committed by William Burke and William Hare and find out what they did with the bodies (eww!). Then discover the backstory of Thomas Weir, a soldier with some very odd fetishes and crimes that led to his execution.
As well as these criminals and murderers, you’ll find out all about the ghostly presence across the Scottish city. Did you know the famous castle is allegedly one of the most haunted places in the whole of Edinburgh? Listen carefully on a stormy night and you might hear the mysterious sound of the lone piper piping…
And if all that doesn’t send a shiver down your spine, we don’t know what will! Of course it’s meant to be scary, but it’ll be fun too, as you explore what went on in both the supernatural and criminal underbelly of Edinburgh in the 19th century and beyond.
