In this Halloween exclusive, we bring you the most incredible ghost story you’ve never heard: The Haunting of Parliament Square. A story I believe rivals the most incredible ghost stories in the world.
Buried beneath the stones of this historic Edinburgh square lies a dark secret that terrified two flatmates in late 2006, eventually forcing the terrified women to flee the property.
The Haunting of Parliament Square was relayed to me by Anna, a conflict photographer, whose chilling experience was later corroborated by Ruth, a BBC journalist. Both seasoned professionals and not easily rattled, these women shared accounts of a terrifying presence in the heart of Edinburgh's Royal Mile—an encounter that has stayed with them ever since.
This isn’t just another ghost story; it’s a story where Edinburgh’s violent past collides with the supernatural in a way that defies belief. Prepare yourself for an encounter with the unknown that you won’t soon forget.
And don’t miss out! My new book, Ghostly Tales of the NC500, is now available on Amazon. Join me as I uncover the haunted histories along Scotland’s most iconic road trip route, packed with over 50 tales of restless spirits and eerie legends.
