ITINERARY

Day 1 - 10/25/2010 - Depart the USA on an overnight flight to Glasgow, Scotland. Or fly to Glasgow from your UK home city tomorrow morning.

Day 2 - 10/26/2010 - Arrive in Glasgow and embark on a bloodcurdling tour featuring the haunts of Scotland's largest city. Cross the haunted "bridge of sighs" into Glasgow's infamous Necropolis, where thousands of Victorian Scots are at rest - sometimes. Drive along the River Clyde for stunning views of the city's dramatic architecture before visiting the Scottish Transport Museum. Fascinating exhibits aside, this stop is of special interest. Ghostly weeping sounds are heard here often, and the building has been the subject of several televised paranormal investigations. This afternoon, leave the city and visit Scone Palace en route to the Atholl Palace Castle Hotel, our home for the next two nights. Dinner tonight will be in the castle's dining room.

Day 3 - 10/27/2010 - Visit magnificent Blair Castle and its impressive collections of medieval armor, weapons and ghosts. Next, travel winding, barren roads through the frightening moors on the way to Loch Ness, where we have arranged a private and very real scientific monster-spotting cruise. This afternoon, see the mysterious Clava Cairns stone circles and travel through Culloden, the scene of Scotland's bloodiest battle and a well-known paranormal hot spot. Return to the castle for dinner and hear werewolf legends of the area. A warning - do not go outside after dark.

Day 4 - 10/28/2010 - Travel this morning to Huntingtower Castle, reportedly one of the most haunted sights in all of Scotland. The old castle is noted for numerous spirits, a thriving bat colony, and a long and tragic history of mysterious royal suicides. Frightening tales of sightings and encounters will explain why no one has dared inhabit the castle for a long, long time. Later, visit enigmatic Rosslyn Chapel to draw your own conclusions about the Da Vinci Code and the Holy Grail. Arrive in Edinburgh this afternoon and take a deep breath. You will be spending the coming days in the most haunted city in the world. Awaken demons from medieval witch trials while dining this evening in the famous Witchery. Our accommodation for the next four nights will be the SAS Radisson on the lively Royal Mile. After dinner, embark upon a spine-tingling ghost walk to the terrifying Black Mausoleum, where more than one hundred previous visitors have reported encountering a rather unfriendly poltergeist.

Day 5 - 10/29/2010 - Begin the day with a special ghost tour of imposing Edinburgh Castle. See the Scottish Crown Jewels and perhaps a spectral royal or two! After lunch at Jekyll & Hyde Pub, tour Holyroodhouse, the Queen's Scottish Palace. Tonight, join real ghost hunters from the Scottish Paranormal Society during an actual investigation at a haunted location in the city. This is not a demonstration for tourists! You will actively participate in the events of the evening. What will the darkness bring?

Day 6 - 10/30/2010 - Journey into Edinburgh's dark ages, when the plague forced people into subterranean villages called "closes." Descend into the nether worlds of Mary King's Close and meet the miserable souls who became the "people of the dark." This site is world-famous in investigative circles and has been featured on countless paranormal television specials. Later, board the Royal Yacht Britannia for a glimpse into the fascinating life of modern royals. Tonight, travel to the outskirts of the city to Dalhousie Castle for a murder mystery dinner in the dungeon. Someone may not survive through dessert!

Day 7 - 10/31/2010 - Happy Halloween! Visit the strange Camera Obscura and venture into the Edinburgh Dungeons for a fun scare. This evening, brave the horrifying city vaults, thought to be the most haunted place in Edinburgh. Dinner is underground in Marlyn's Wind, where a special guest will tell stories of the undead. Tonight's finale is Samhain, a pagan Halloween ritual heralding the arrival of winter. Don a costume and join the colorful procession down the Royal Mile!

Day 8 - 11/1/2010 - It is time to travel home, giving the spirits of Scotland a well-deserved rest.
