Discover some beautiful murals, learn about the oldest surviving music hall in the UK, and end your evening at a famous Glasgow pub, where whisky is far from the only spirit you may encounter.

What makes Glasgow Ghouls, Ghosts and Gruesome Tales Tour a unique experience ?

The current church was built in 1824, and was converted to a theatre in the 1980s. The peaceful graveyard to its side was the site of one of the strangest graverobbing cases in Scottish history, that of Mrs Janet McAllister and her missing bones

Another converted church, this time from 1523. Hear about what ghosts you might encounter while treading its boards, and why you shouldn’t spend too long alone in the back two rows of the auditorium…

A unique part of Glasgow’s architecture since the 1600s. Witches were held in cells in the clocktower, and dozens of people met their end by hanging in front of the beautiful tower.

The site of the former University of Glasgow annex where a doctor may have inspired the first science fiction story ever written, and where the dead sometimes don’t stay that way…

A beautiful pre-Victorian hospital, where a famous name in medical history made a frightening discovery, and where some patients never checked out, even after they passed away…

Glasgow’s oldest building holds some very strange secrets in its walls, and especially in its crypt. The beautiful but spooky graveyard in particular has some stories to unearth…

A jewel in Glasgow’s crown. This nineteenth century cemetery was the setting for some spooky encounters, haunted statues, and even a real-life bloodsucker!

Apparently the most haunted hotel in Scotland. Discover why you should ask for a room below the top floor, just in case…

Though this pub is very open about having no ghosts, they certainly have spirits. Finish here for a wee pint to calm the nerves.
