Paranormal ambience

Published on Mar, 2025

Our host was very knowledgeable in the history of the places we visited. He told us about fascinating paranormal occurrences that took place there. The indoor tour area was little bigger than I expected and that means more to explore plus the restricted area of the graveyard was included in this tour. I enjoyed it, thanks.

Foggy night

Published on Mar, 2025

As a self-proclaimed skeptic of the supernatural, I have to admit that our tour guide, Beth, did a phenomenal job of making me question myself a few times and even raising my heartbeat on a couple of occasions. If you enjoy spooky experiences and learning about the city's history, I highly recommend this tour. The weather couldn’t have been more fitting—it felt like a paid actor, with the fog turning the cemetery into a scene straight out of a horror movie.

Informative about Edinburghs history although also a bit ‘tongue in cheek’ about the ghosts, friendly, engaging and fun

Ben was our guide, he made it fun and interactive when engaging with everyone at the start and then including each person - using their name, during the tour
