Tour Description

Delve into the murky depths of Edinburgh’s most unsettling past. This Halloween tour is strictly adults-only, exploring sinister misdeeds and their terrible consequences.

On this after-dark tour your expert Mercat guide will take you through some of the lesser-known closes and wynds of Edinburgh’s Old Town. Bloody plots. Treason. Torture. No story is off-limits – you’ll hear it all.

Deep into the haunted vaults

Forget the plastic pomp of the average Halloween. The haunted Blair Street Underground Vaults are truly scary: your guide in full costume, the candles casting a weak pool of light in the gloom. Watch for unexpected tales in the shadows and listen carefully to the stories of outrageous misdoings from the city’s troubled past.



It is recommended that you book this tour in advance..
