Hidden and Haunted Edinburgh Tour for Two
About this experience
If you love a good old fashioned scare, then this Hidden and Haunted Edinburgh Tour for Two ticks all the boxes. Packed with unsavoury characters and bone-chilling tales, this candlelit tour is the last of the night, and by far the most frightening.
Your cloaked guide will take you on a dark and atmospheric journey through the Old Town before descending into the Blair Street Underground Vaults, where the real scares begin. You’ll hear all about the plots and treasons that led to bloody torture, and the horrific conditions and deaths that typified the Vaults. As well as all the undesirable characters who once called the abandoned chambers home, you’ll learn of the tormented souls that haunt the underground walls to this day.
The Vaults are home to some of Edinburgh’s darkest history, so you never know what you might discover beneath the streets above!

“A fun little tour!”
Great opportunity to see the vaults and hear some fun anecdotes! Stephanie was a great guide - funny and very eccentric - and made for a memorable evening. We had the Friday night 10pm tour (would suggest the later tours). Would recommend to a friend!
