City of the Dead Haunted Graveyard Tour
This tour has sole access to the Covenanter's Prison, a locked section of Greyfriars Graveyard and lair of the infamous Mackenzie Poltergeist, the best supernatural case of all time - responsible for hundreds of 'attacks' on the tours.
Combining history, humour and horror, the walk ends inside the Covenanter’s Prison – a locked section of a 16th century walled cemetery. This is the lair of the ‘McKenzie Poltergeist’ – now the best-documented paranormal case in history.
As well as receiving massive national and international television and newspaper coverage, the McKenzie Poltergeist is the subject of an acclaimed book - The Ghost That Haunted Itself. Signed copies are available after the tour.
Since City of the Dead has the only access to the Prison, we have been able to record all of the ‘attacks’ on visitors there. So far there have been over 900 – including 180 people who have been knocked unconscious!
Our walks are written and researched by historical author and award winning novelist, J A Henderson – who has written books on the Underground City, The Mackenzie Poltergeist and Haunted Edinburgh. Our guides are a mixture of historians and professional entertainers, picked for their ability to improvise, entertain and make each tour unique and individual.
This is history brought to life through storytelling, rather than simply walking around and pointing out historical facts. As a result we have enjoyed years of rave media reviews. City of the Dead has been named “Britain’s Best Ghost Walk” by Scare.com, Yahoo! Travel and Virgin Media and is the only Scottish attraction to be short listed for the prestigious Screamie Awards (3 times!) and the Luxury Travel Awards. We also won Scare Tours ‘Best Ghost Tour’ award.
