A thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining walking tour. Ross was a great guide, giving a theatrical and informative view of some of the haunted history of Edinburgh with just the right amount of spookiness. He really should be on stage! Great value for money and I would highly recommend.

Best tour in Edinburgh hands down. We booked in with Ross after doing 2 tours with him previously I can genuinely say he both knows and loves the city and all of its gory history and truly loves telling it. The tour was just the right length at 1 hour 45 minutes even if I wished it would never end. For £18 a ticket I cannot believe how high quality the tour is there is so much attention to detail I will be booking again when I am back.

If you can, GO! Ross is so passionate about the history and every story he tells! This tour is the perfect mix of history, humor, and spooky! As a travel agent, I will recommend Ross and his tours to all my clients traveling to Edinburgh! As long as everyone in your group is mobile, this tour is perfect for all ages! Bonus: a visit to the goodest good boy in Greyfriars Cemetery!

A perfect spooky tour with lots of learning and lots of laughs! Pretty sure Ross is made for this gig - he's knowledgeable and theatrical and so much fun. This was part of my first visit to Edinburgh and I had a delightful time!

Not to be missed! Really enjoyed the experience, brought to life by Ross’ exuberant storytelling and sense of fun. Essentially an outdoor moving show for over an hour and a half, well worth the fee. My correct use of the apostrophe should assure you I know what I’m talking about🧐

Great tour! We had such a fun time! Really interesting history, with a great and immersive tour guide. Thanks so much.

Ross is a professional tour guide with a passion for terrifying tales of Edinburgh’s dark history. Here are some comments from his previous guests:

Ross is the GOAT! Fantastic experience, abundant in laughs, scares, and stories that stick with you. Ross was an absolutely phenomenal tour guide and absolutely deserves a statue on the Royal Mile. 11/10.

private tour, visited Nov 2025

Highly recommend this for a little something to do!! Especially if you are in to history and ghosts! Can’t recommend Ross the tour guide Highly enough. He was so entertaining and enthusiastic, he really made the night!

Entertained to see some great stories from Edinburgh’s past. Vault and Graveyard were excellent as was our guide Ross who introduced us to many ghosts

George S, visited Dec 2023

Really fun tour. Wasn’t scary but very historical with a really good host Ross. Would recommend a tour from him any day!

Andrew C, visited Dec 2023

Ross was a stellar guide – full of knowledge, humour and theatrics to bring the ghastly tales to life! Highly recommend.
