Ghostly Tales of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile Tour
Experience the echoes of history on accessible, open-air city streets
Step into a hauntingly picturesque tale of bygone days. Visualize an era where gallows were erected in the heart of the city, surrounded by a sea of onlookers. A hooded figure stands helpless, the noose tightened around their neck. Silence descends. The groan of a lever, the clatter of a trapdoor, the rope pulled taut... This daytime ghost tour immerses you in chilling accounts of the city's sinister history. Tales of the specters that lurk in the city's shadows — hardened criminals, cold-blooded murderers, and their unsuspecting victims — will be spun as you explore the very sites they once roamed... and for some, where they tragically departed. The journey begins at the Mercat Cross, a locale with a past tainted by both terror and revelry. Listen to the spine-tingling stories of the restless spirits that roam free in the city, while remaining safely above ground in Edinburgh’s Old Town.
