The Edinburgh Dungeon
Overview
From the same team that brought you The London Dungeon, the Edinburgh version brings together an amazing cast of actors, special effects, stages, scenes and rides in a truly unique walkthrough experience that is fun, scary and educational. Discover the lair of Sawney Bean and his cannibal family; grave-robbing and worse with Burke and Hare; and the cheerful tale of how 'Half-hangit Maggie' came back from her own hanging.
