Tanner's Close Site (West Port)

atmospheric · unverified

Haunting Nights, a UK paranormal events operator, has run dedicated 'Burke & Hare Ghost Hunt' nights at the Niddry Street Vaults in Edinburgh since at least 2019. Their event materials describe the vaults as a location where investigators have reported sinister male figures, dark shadow forms, and children's voices — phenomena that the BBC has reportedly characterised as making the vaults 'possibly one of the most haunted places in Britain.' The event uses ouija boards, glass divination, table-tipping, and electronic equipment. Haunting Rooms America similarly lists the Niddry Street Vaults ghost-hunt as an active event, connecting the location explicitly to the Burke and Hare narrative. All claims are reported as investigator and visitor accounts made in an events context.
