Absolutely fascinating two hours exploring Greyfriars Burial Ground with #Edinburgh’s best versed Tour Guide, Robin Mitchell aka Adam Lyal (deceased). From poltergeists to Harry Potter and so much hidden history, what a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. Fun too. Contact Cadies & Witchery Tours.

Always good to catch up with Robin Mitchell.

Fair is foul, and foul is fair. A new addition to our skull collection from the Scottish play. Available from our wee shop at 84 West Bow (Victoria Street) #Edinburgh

My week in four photos!

Fabulous photo of the Castlehill #Edinburgh from the early 1900s. Nice looking lantern outside what is now The Witchery Restaurant and if you look closely you can see the cannonball in the wall of Cannonball House. A little quieter in those days...

Just flown in. Two new figurines known as 'Little Souls'. On the left is 'Twinkle' and on the right is 'Beam'. These witch figurines are only available from our wee shop at 84 West Bow (Victoria Street) #Edinburgh

Find out more on our small group Greyfriars Cemetery Tour #Edinburgh (90 minutes). We have availability on Sunday 15th December at 2pm. This fascinating walking tour must be booked in advance. Limited spaces. witcherytours.com/booking

This is an amazing 90 minutes for locals and tourists alike. Did it recently and Robin Mitchell is a brilliantly entertaining storyteller and guide.

This is well worth doing

Concluding our 3-part 40th anniversary retrospective. witcherytours.com/blog/2024/12/1…

Nice to see the Tartan Viking on Hogmanay.

It's the anniversary of William Burke's execution (28th January 1828). In a black box on the counter of our shop in Edinburgh's West Bow rests a gory relic. This original artefact is a small calling-card case made out of the skin of the notorious "bodysnatcher" William Burke.

Do you ever tell someone a funny story and their response is ... silence? An anecdote going down like a lead balloon often initiates the phrase, "You had to be there". This blog may have to end with those words but you'll need to be the judge of that. witcherytours.com/blog/2025/03/1…

Another busy day at The Cadies & Witchery Tours in West Bow (Victoria Street) #Edinburgh

The Mad Monk of the Cowgate back on his skateboard.
