7 Charlotte Square - After Dark

About 7 Charlotte Square - After Dark

Discover the dark history of the house and Edinburgh in the 18th and early 19th century where bodysnatchers and beheadings, hauntings and hangings are just the beginning.

Uncover the house's chilling links to infamous murderers, cunning thieves, and notorious traitors as we delve into its dark history. Explore the unsettling ties between the house and figures like Deacon Brodie, the infamous Burke and Hare, and even the exhumed skull of Robert Burns.

This spine-tingling event is perfect for those brave enough to delve into Edinburgh's gruesome Georgian past.

Please arrive anytime between 6pm and 7:30pm. Event concludes at 8:30pm
