Book now from £12.00

Are you visiting Edinburgh - a city steeped in history and culture? Interested in the darker shadowy past of Scotland's diverse and vibrant capital? If yes, you'll adore a tour of the haunted vaults deep in the city's underbelly.

A dark history of Edinburgh

Edinburgh is a city steeped in history. It's beautiful, quaint and traditional. But under this façade, Edinburgh holds dark secrets, which will be revealed on this underground Vaults tour.
You'll delve into Edinburgh's underworld, seeing the series of vaults under the South Bridge dating back to the 1700s. These vaults featured on Most Haunted Live as one of the scariest places on earth were home to notorious criminals and the poorest within society. Plenty of people died in the Vaults, so it's no wonder they're said to be rife with paranormal activity.

Ghosts Ghouls and Body Snatchers 

Hear about ghostly activity and maybe even experience some as you discover the most haunted part of Edinburgh. Learn about the Burke and Hare murders and the persecution of witches. Discover the dangerous to desperate characters who stalked the streets of Edinburgh in times gone by.
You will see the city from a new and gruesome angle when you visit the torture exhibition to hear about Edinburgh's darker past and how some of these items were used.
A way to explore Edinburgh's history and scare yourself silly- a tour of the haunted vaults is one spooky experience you won't want to miss!
