Open Full Live DashboardAs the clock ticks past midnight here in Edinburgh, a hushed calm has settled over the cobbled streets, with only the occasional distant chime of a church bell or the soft murmur of late-night revelers leaving a cosy pub breaking the quiet, and a typically cool, damp breeze rustling through the historic closes. The air carries that distinct scent of old stone and a hint of something sweet from a nearby bakery, as the city prepares for a new day, but for now, it's a wonderfully atmospheric time for a ghost tour, where tales of the past feel particularly vivid under the moonlit sky.
