The cobbled streets of the Scottish capital have always whispered tales of ghosts and ghouls, but on the 31st of October, the city comes to life with a very different sound... thumping fancy dress parties. From witch-themed bashes to raves in scary costumes, here are the best Halloween events in Edinburgh.

For those of you after witchy things to do in Edinburgh, Slug and Lettuce is inviting you to join its coven on George Street. Expect themed cocktails (such as Winnie's Life Potion and Mistress of Evil), as well as eerie decorations, banging music and crazy costumes.
Themed after the horror novel that is its namesake, Frankenstein is the perfect place for a spooktacular night out. It's housed in a 19th-century church, with live monster shows, creepy animatronics and vats of bubbling liquid to really set the scene.
The Three Sisters in Old Town has a glorious range of spooky events. The extravagant cabaret Halloween Party Night for Leukemia Care will take place over the entire evening, offering tasty sharing platters and heaps of ghoulishly glamorous entertainment. All for an amazing cause, there's even a raffle to win a dinner for two.
