The Edinburgh Horror Festival is back and it's TENTH year.

The Edinburgh Horror Festival is one of the first of its kind in the UK- most horror festivals focus on one style of performance be it film or theatre, or possible one area of horror such as ghosts.

Our goal is to present a varied programme of performances in multiple disciplines and genres- from theatre to comedy, from magic to walking tours, from presenting authors to mediums to ghost hunters to scientists.

A variable bill providing an opportunity for all those in the arts and sciences and beyond to present their work to an audience.

We take every opportunity to ensure the details for Edinburgh Horror Festival are accurate, if any of the above information is incorrect we would appreciate if you could take a minute to suggest an edit.
