About this Event

Step into the shadows this Halloween on our Edinburgh Witches Tour!

Get ready to discover the wicked history of Scotland… from the streets above to an underground vault. Join your bewitching guide on this spellbinding walking tour!


This Halloween, step into Scotland's rich and mysterious past as you explore Edinburgh's Old Town. Led by an engaging character guide, this tour blends history and storytelling for an unforgettable experience.


Uncover the stories of Scotland’s real-life witches, exploring their lives and the accusations they faced. We pay respectful homage to those wrongly accused of witchcraft, shedding light on the great injustices they suffered. You may even learn some facts about much-loved characters from Outlander and Harry Potter!


Adding to the intrigue, the final fifteen minutes of the tour will involve an exclusive visit to “The Lost Close” — this recently discovered underground site has been cloaked in mystery since the Great Fire of 1824. The ancient vault, where you will enjoy the remaining tales of the tour, dates back to 1742, offering a window into the past, and providing a fitting end to an immersive exploration of history and enchantment.


You will leave feeling entertained and inspired with a newfound perspective on Edinburgh's fascinating and sometimes dark past.


Don't miss The Edinburgh Witches Old Town Walking Tour and Underground Vault, an opportunity to delve into the city's fascinating past, honour those who suffered, and embrace the magic of discovery.


*Please note this is an outdoor walking tour so dress for the weather, my dears.

**PLEASE NOTE: The tour will NOT include the Underground Vault at The Lost Close between Monday the 6th of January - Friday the 31st of January 2025 due to extensive renovation work. The tour finishes at Greyfriars Kirkyard.*
