Witches. Grave robbers. Murder. Plague. Ghosts. And the darker side of Stirling.
Back by popular demand!! 🎃
You know Stirling for its kings, queens, battles and castles. This Halloween, discover the Stirling you don't usually hear about.
From witch trials and deadly outbreaks of plague to grave robbing, unsolved murders and notorious local characters, this 1.5 hour walking tour uncovers the darker stories hidden among Stirling’s ancient streets and graveyards.
Explore the Holy Rude Cemetery, hear about the grave robbers who disturbed the dead, and uncover the stories behind Stirling’s witch trials, plague and death. And because this is Halloween, there are a few ghosts and legends along the way too, including the mysterious Green Lady. Some stories are firmly rooted in Stirling’s history, while others have become part of the folklore surrounding our ancient city. Do something different this Halloween!
