The Ghosthunter
90 minute walking tour from £8.50
This late night walk starts at the Mercat Cross, once the site of public executions. You’ll hear much more about hangings, ghosts and ghouls on this spooky tour. If that is not enough there is even a stroll through the haunted valuts!
In days of old, Edinburgh folk gathered at the Mercat Cross to enjoy gruesome and bloody entertainment. Mercat Tours continues this age-old tradition with this terrifying late-night stroll.
Feast your ears on tales of the macabre told dramatically by our cloaked guide. Descend into haunted underground vaults. Walk through dark, narrow closes.
Why does the sinister spirit of a wicked warlock haunt the West Bow? Who is the mysterious and menacing ghost in Bell's Wynd? What house in the New Town was haunted by a malevolent evil spirit and perhaps still is.....
For the answer to these and other mysteries surrounding Edinburgh's dastardly past the Ghosthunter is a must!
Please note that children under 17 years of age are not permitted on this tour.
