The Grey Ghost of Playhouse
Playhouse, Edinburgh
Deep in the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town, the historic Playhouse on Greenside Place is home to a most intriguing presence. Albert, as he's come to be known, is a ghostly figure who prefers to make his presence felt rather than seen. He's often associated with cold spots, which can be quite unsettling for those who experience them. Dressed in a grey great coat, Albert is thought to have met his demise in a tragic accident or, alternatively, took his own life while working as a night watchman.
