Going to Lincoln Asylum 2024! 🩶
Thanks to the amazing generosity of some dear fiends relating to my recent 60th birthday, my dear "Bonnie Lassie" Gemma Clement and myself (Wullie Steele) will be attending this year's Lincoln Asylum Steampunk Festival. This has been a personal ambition of mine since first getting into Steampunk, well over a decade ago now. Gemma is relatively new to the scene and this spectacular event will be her first major outing. We are both thrilled and delighted to be attending the 2024 gathering and I seriously look forward to meeting up with dear friends and introducing them to my very special lady!

Best Ghost Tour
Jun 2024 • Family
Went on the Double Dead tour with Artemus and had a fantastic time. He is such a great storyteller and the showmanship is some of the best I have ever experienced. It was so much fun being able to go into the vaults and hear the ghost stories, these vaults aren’t accessible to the general public. Then we went to Grey Friar’s Kirkyard to learn more about the dead buried there, the grave robbing, and the Mackenzie Ghost. This tour also gets you access to the locked off portion of the graveyard where you learn about the Covenanters’ prison that was there. I highly recommend this tour, it was the best ghost tour I have ever been on.

Some lovely new reviews!

5 Stars
Creepy and entertaining! Artemis Deadman is a fantastic storyteller, (with great style), and had our whole group hooked on his every word. Also a genuinely lovely chap who even gave us some Hp fun facts along the way because he saw we were fans.

Wasn’t too cold in April so we were okay, but of course, do layer up as it is an evening time!

We loved learning about all the stories of the graveyards, Edinburghs past, and having exclusive access to Covenanter’s Prison and the Black Mausoleum.

Safe to say, I wasn’t possessed by the poltergeist so this is my genuine review and not the spirit of Mackenzie bigging up his own turf! Recommend this tour to everyone!

5 Stars
What an amazing tour and our guide Artemus Deadman was great with his story telling and so informative and being the last tour of the night he made it even more special.
We did our Tour on Thursday 3rd April at 9pm and he had plenty of time with the people on our tour, he even said eerily enough there is 12 plus himself on tour making it 13 😳
We had the opportunity to enter the locked off prison of Greyfriars Graveyard that you can't access normally.

He warned us of the Poltergeists so if you are into that then make sure you do this tour.

Artemus is so knowledgeable about the city, the graveyard and the locked off prison. He kept us all on our toes so speak the whole tour was so entertaining.Great work and a great tour, thanks heaps Artemus 🙂🙂

On a side note we did tour at 9pm and it was so cold so if you thinking of going late, wear a few more layers than we did.

5 Stars
An excellent graveyard walk. We started around the cathedral and worked our way towards the graveyard. It was actually quite spooky, though nothing occult occurred on our visit (so far as we know...).

Our tour guide was excellent and thoroughly engaging. His make up and stream punk attire was fitting and he was definitely a good story teller. His script was super factual, so would recommend this for history lovers.

Note - if you go at night, it is Scotland! Wrap up warm. Warmer than you think you need to be as there will be periods of standing still in windy areas!

Just because you're dead doesn't mean its good for you to be stuck around the house all day. Haunting doesn't have to be miserable.

Following a spell in hospital after almost collapsing last week, I have been diagnosed as suffering from Type 1 Diabetes. It seems I may have had the condition for some time, which explains a number of physical and mental health issues I have experienced over the last year.

After being on insulin and other medications for only a week, I am already feeling so much better with improved concentration, focus and an increase in both strength and stamina. According to my partner I seem like a different person and I can't remember when I last felt as good as I am currently feeling. I am really looking forward to getting back to work and hosting tours from the start of next week.

Not only does it look like I will be much more comfortable, relaxed and focused leading tours, but I am also looking forward to actually being able to exploit my storytelling skills to best advantage and giving guests on my tours the very best experience possible.

Onwards Voyager!
