Edinburgh ghosts and ghouls, vampires and cannibals, with Brian Pendreigh

Do you believe in ghosts? Some do, some don't.
Do you believe in witches and witchcraft? Maybe yes, maybe no.
 
But it is a fact that thousands of people were executed for witchcraft in Scotland, the vast majority of them women.

We are going to walk back in history to a time when everyone believed in ghosts and witches and believed in the Devil as a physical entity. 

"Brian was better than the best" Ravati Sukumar, August 2024.

"Brian is a great guide, with so much knowledge about local history!! It was great to spend my last night at Edinburgh with the company of the ghosts he talked about!" Ana Beatriz,  São Paulo, March 2025. 

Brian's tours have even featured on the This Morning programme on ITV.

We will visit my former workplace and I will tell you about the resident ghost and the spirits that can be found in the basement. 
We will visit Edinburgh's creepy old prison and the neighbouring burial grounds, where you will hear about grave robbers and vampirism.

We will look out over the city at night and hear of a couple in league with the Devil.

And you will hear how a visit to an Edinburgh cemetery inspired what is perhaps the most famous ghost story of all. 
We will finish at Holyrood Palace and the new Scottish Parliament building, with a tale of dark deeds involving cannibalism, a ghost, politicians and even one of my own ancestors. 

Maybe. 

I do this same route for other companies with guests all paying £20 up front. Here it is left to individuals to pay what they want at the end the tour. You pay exactly what you think it is worth.
