Overview

Get ready to dig up Glasgow's ghoulish history. Meet your guide, a local comedian who will take you on a deep dive into the city's dark and macabre side, and set out on your walking tour. Listen to tales of grave robbers, witch trials, and even a ghostly chimpanzee as you wander through Glasgow's streets and past haunted locations. See the Strathclyde University, Glasgow Cathedral, the Necropolis cemetery, and more. 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.

Itinerary

  • Ramshorn Graveyard

    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

    10 minutes

  • Tron Theatre

    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...

    10 minutes

  • Tolbooth Steeple

    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.

    10 minutes

  • University of Strathclyde

    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...

    10 minutes

  • Friends Of Glasgow Royal Infirmary Museum

    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...

    10 minutes

  • Glasgow Cathedral

    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...

    10 minutes

  • The Necropolis

    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!

    10 minutes

  • N/A

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

    10 minutes

  • N/A

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

A Fun Introduction to Glasgow

Published on May, 2025

Our guide, Mark, was engaging and funny, and even had the ability to remember everyone’s names! It was really impressive! The tour itself was the perfect length and interesting. Mark did a wonderful job explaining the myths and, when appropriate, the true history.

Strongly recommend

Published on May, 2025

Glasgow Ghosts

Published on Apr, 2025

My wife and I really enjoyed this tour. Our Tour Guide (Mark) was very interesting and told some great stories. Being in the Necropolis on dusk was quite eerie

Fun and factual

Published on Apr, 2025

Excellent. Stories told were interesting and Mark made it all very enjoyable. Great tales with added humour. Very impressive memory for names to make it personal too.
