A special tour at Newhailes House and Gardens in Musselburgh recounts stories of hauntings reported by residents and visitors over the centuries. The guide leads attendees through rooms describing intelligent, residual, and poltergeist activity. You will experience this atmospheric house and its reputation for ghostly encounters during the walk.
Newhailes was home to the influential (and occasionally infamous) Dalrymple family for nearly 300 years. Over the centuries, residents, staff, volunteers and visitors have experienced and reported things that they couldn’t quite explain. Whistling in the corridors, ghostly music, footsteps in empty rooms and shadowy figures have ensured that Newhailes House has earned a reputation for being haunted. Join us for this special tour of Newhailes and experience this atmospheric house for yourself. Your guide will lead you through the rooms, recounting stories of intelligent, residual and even poltergeist hauntings. Who knows, you may have your own story to share by the end of the tour... Additional Dates: 20 November 2026, 04 December 2026
