    I have been there many times. One time, in the middle of winter, snow on the ground and freezing, i came upon two elderly homeless men living within the cemetery. One had been a boxer and was 'punch drunk' and the other called himself 'Cannonball' and recited the most wonderful poetry he had written. I said he needed to write that down, he said then people would steal his words. Needless to say i came home without my scarf, gloves and jumper.

    Ghosts are one of those things that until you experience them for yourself you will always be sceptical BUT when (if) you DO experience them you then realise that there are things in this world that we will probably never understand. It is quite an unnerving explosion inside the brain when you come to realise that ghosts are indeed very real. It was the most disturbing experience I have ever had.

      @@popularguygaming My grandfather on my mother's side died 42 years ago now. He smoked a very distinctive smelling tobacco in his pipe. Ten years ago my mother died & I was very upset. VERY upset. I had been out shopping one day & when I returned home my house was filled with the strong smell of tobacco smoke, HIS tobacco smoke. I just sat down & cried & said "Thank you, Grandad". I still grieved my mother but I was really fine after that. He came back to tell me that everything was okay.

    Hello interesting fact .Many railings and gates were removed during World War II, ostensibly to be melted down in a morale-boosting drive to help the war effort. The reality was that the iron could not be reused and more often than not it was simply dumped at sea. - This was done to make everyone feel like they were doing something, the reality was , utterly useless amount of effort,done for no good to anybody anywhere. A bit like clapping in covid. Very interesting video, thanks for braving the weather and sharing.

Ever since I was a kid and my Edinburgh-born grandfather told me the story of Greyfriar’s Bobby and I read my mother’s copy of the book. I went there in 1989 with my grandparents MacMillan and walked around the area and the kirk yard. Went back in early 90’s for the Festival and saw a wonderful play of “Daniel and the lions” performed in the kirk. Just remembered that. Loved it.

    Also, given the history of that plot of land I'm surprised that the town council allowed apartment / flat construction so close to the church yard walls. Any ideas on this?

      People need places to live in, nothing wrong in building next to cemetery's or graveyards, the dead can't hurt you, and it would be peaceful at night.

    I'd be very careful around that building, I have encountered something which I'll not talk about on here.
    But basically what I'm trying to say is do not mess with the supernatural.

    Been to this cemetry many times, iv never fully experienced scratches, pushed, but, it definitly gives u chills down the spine, whether that’s knowing the history, and expectations are high, I don’t know, but u certainly feel something, when u get close
    Loving these videos, reminds me many years ago, when I lived in Edinburgh, and how much I enjoyed walking around all these old cemeteries

    I'm sorry that precious little dog, Bobby, was buried in that cemetery with such an evil force there. All they ask you to do is please don't rub his statue's nose. I've seen a video of a crowd inside the black mausoleum, and a lady got scratched and almost passed out. They quickly removed her from being inside the mausoleum. There's no way I'd ever get close to that mausoleum. I don't know if they stopped allowing groups to go inside of it or not anymore. There is pure evil and pure good in the spiritual realm, whether people want to believe it or not.

    What a beautiful cemetery! Oddly enough, during the daytime it has a slight erie look and probably feel to it, so I can image how it would feel at night? I can imagine there's plenty of spirits waiting to be greeted. 👻👻
