Live mystery experiences in Edinburgh
Why we play here
The Old Town is built on top of itself — closes, vaults and stairs that let a story disappear and reappear two streets away.
Our routes here run through the Royal Mile closes, the Grassmarket and the New Town crescents. Hosting is available in English.
How booking works here
Edinburgh is sold on request. You send your dates and group size, we confirm hosts, route and venue in writing, and only then is anything paid.
