Mercat Tours: Evening of Ghost and Ghouls

The night begins with a tour of the darker closes of Edinburgh, before journeying into the haunted Blair Street Underground Vaults. Finally, we retire to a candlelit cellar for a dram of whisky and an evening of storytelling.

Hear grisly tales of witchcraft, torture and restless spirits as you venture down medieval closes and descend into the haunted Blair Street Underground Vaults. Your cloaked guide leads you through the dimly lit caverns, filling the night with stories -- all of them true.

As night thickens, we gather in Megget’s cellar for a whisky -- or soft drink if you’re not fond of a dram. In the warmth of candlelight, your storyteller conjures more tales of Edinburgh’s ghoulish past, and the tortured souls that stalk the city’s streets.
