Experience the eerie charm of Edinburgh’s Old Town on a spine tingling tour through moonlit graveyards and haunted underground vaults dating back to the 1700s. Your guide will lead you to Greyfriars Graveyard, a site steeped in folklore legends and myths. Here you will hear the story of Greyfriars Bobby, the loyal dog whose vigil over his master’s grave has become famous in novels and history books. As you wander among the gravestones, your guide will recount chilling tales of the past, including the lives of those buried beneath the ground and the dark history that surrounds the graveyard. The atmosphere of the Old Town combined with the moonlit setting creates a hauntingly memorable experience that will captivate and unsettle in equal measure.
The tour continues into the infamous South Bridge underground vaults, widely regarded as one of the scariest locations in the world. These vaults were once home to the destitute, criminals, prostitutes, witches, and even the notorious Hellfire Club. Visitors will hear stories of the evil that is said to linger within these walls, making the experience both thrilling and chilling. Stout footwear is recommended for navigating the uneven surfaces, and the tour is not suitable for children under twelve or those easily unsettled. This unforgettable journey through Edinburgh’s darkest corners promises a blend of history mystery and supernatural intrigue.
