Hidden in what is now one of Edinburgh’s most genteel neighbourhoods once stood a house that few people today remember - and fewer still ever saw.

Grange House was demolished in 1936, but long before that it had acquired a reputation that set it apart from other old Edinburgh estates. Built on the site of a medieval monastic grange, expanded over centuries, and eventually used as both a private home and a school for young women, the house sat quietly on the edge of the city while stories slowly gathered around it.

In this episode, I look at the history of the Grange, the house itself, and the events that made it one of Edinburgh’s most overlooked hauntings.

Also, I am working on a project about experiences in healthcare in Scotland. If you have a true, first-hand account of a haunting in a hospital or care home anywhere in Scotland, I’d really like to hear from you. You can get in touch at [email protected]
