Ghost Hunting at Barnton Bunker

Date: Saturday 21 November 2026
Time: 9:00 PM – 2:00 AM
Location: Barnton Bunker (Regional Seat of Government No.2), Edinburgh, EH4 7BN

Experience one of Edinburgh’s most intense and unique ghost hunting events with Kindred Spirit Investigations. Join us underground at the infamous Barnton Bunker, a vast Cold War relic hidden beneath the quiet streets of the city.

This overnight paranormal investigation takes place inside one of Scotland’s most secretive locations, offering a rare opportunity to explore an underground complex built to survive nuclear war. As darkness falls and the bunker grows silent, many investigators report a heavy, oppressive atmosphere and repeated unexplained activity.

This structured investigation is suitable for complete beginners and experienced investigators alike and is provided for entertainment purposes.

Also known as Regional Seat of Government No.2, Barnton Bunker was constructed in the 1950s during the height of Cold War tension. Designed to house government officials in the event of nuclear attack, those inside lived and worked under constant fear, secrecy, and isolation — while the world above faced potential destruction.

Carved directly into solid rock, the bunker’s reinforced corridors, narrow passageways, and artificial lighting created an environment of intense psychological pressure. Many believe this prolonged stress and emotional trauma has left behind a powerful residual energy that still lingers today.

• Shadow figures seen moving through sealed corridors
• Disembodied voices and whispered conversations
• Unexplained footsteps echoing through empty tunnels
• Sudden cold spots and drastic temperature changes
• Overwhelming feelings of dread or being watched
• Electrical disturbances and equipment malfunctions

Unlike traditional haunted locations shaped by centuries of folklore, Barnton Bunker is haunted by modern fear — secrecy, survival, and the expectation of the end of the world.
