About Ghost Stories by Candlelight
Join a selection of storytellers for a night of ghost stories in the Underground of the Banshee Labyrinth. The room you're in dates back nearly 250 years and has its own horrifying past - which we'll touch upon tonight! Witches, warlocks, ghosts, ghouls, and phantoms all here in one place. You'll be able to cosy up with the spookiest stories, hear about the most diabolical characters, and listen with bated breath as the ghostly past of the city is laid out. Tales of Terror from Edinburgh's past featuring local ghost guides and performers.
