Meet Ghouls and Ghosts at the Mercat Cross.
EDINBURGH is a real Jekyll and Hyde city. It has long been a bustling capital in the daytime. However the old buildings and narrow closes take on a different, darker and more sinister character during the hours of night. Mercat Tours run four distinct tours of the more sombre side of Scotland’s capital city. This walks are not for the fainthearted.
There is the Ghosts and Ghouls Tour, which exhumes the city’s gruesome and often bloody past. It has a long history of murders, hangings, tortures and body-snatching, which has left the old town with a haunting legacy. Many ghostly apparitions now stalk these gloomy closes and BBC news once described as the most haunted place in Britain.
