Whispers after Dark
Experience Edinburgh Castle in a whole new light…or lack of it.
As night falls, join an expert guide for a chilling journey through the castle’s shadowed passageways and ancient spaces, uncovering centuries of history, intrigue, and hidden stories.
This atmospheric Halloween tour reveals the darker side of Scotland’s most iconic fortress, where echoes of the past linger after dusk.
The tour takes place mostly outdoors and requires visitors to walk on steep and cobbled walkways and staircases. It also enters dark, enclosed spaces with uneven terrain.
Strictly for over 18s - enter if you dare.
