Ever wondered what lies beneath the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh? Join me as I recount my spine-tingling experiences in the haunted Edinburgh Vaults and reveal the chilling stories of ghostly encounters that still haunt the city today. Remember the time you were a teenager, exploring something terrifying with friends? That was me, on a ghost walk that left a lasting impression. You'll hear about mysterious bruises that appeared on a group of schoolgirls and a ghostly watchman who seems reluctant to leave his post.
But that's not all—the spectral legends of Edinburgh Castle await. Picture yourself at the historic castle, amidst tales of wrongful executions, royal corpses, and a ghostly bagpiper who vanished into thin air. From the notorious body snatchers Burke and Hare to the eerie presence of a manure-smelling ghost and a headless drummer, this episode is packed with stories that will make your skin crawl. I even share my personal spooky encounter with a ghostly cat and the fascinating history of the castle's pet cemetery. So, grab a cozy blanket, turn off the lights, and prepare for a thrilling exploration of Edinburgh's haunted history.
