Are you brave enough to attend an unsettling night of ghosts in the Banshee Labyrinth - Scotland's Most Haunted Pub -  built into the legendary South Bridge Vaults.

Ghosts of the Banshee

About Ghosts of the Banshee

Experience a unique magic show drawing on the ghosts and undead nightmares that are said to haunt the room you sit in. A unique and original blend of mind reading, supernatural illusions, Ouija Boards, and ghosts stories- all told by candle light in the vaulted cinema of the Banshee Labyrinth - this show will skirt the edges of what is real and what is on the other side of the veil.

This show represents the latest incarnation of the frequently sold out "Paranormal Illusionist" show which began in 2019 and has toured the UK, including a sell out tour in 2022.

"...unique and original ...a clever and well-crafted show" - World Magic Review

"Prepare to be convinced about the thin veil that separates our world from the next" - The Wee Review

“★★★★★ If you want to see something truly amazing... this is the man to show you.“ – Bunbury Magazine
