A notorious supernatural being has increased its presence in Edinburgh as Halloween approaches. ‌

The Mackenzie Poltergeist haunts Greyfriars Kirkyard from its lair - a tomb known as the "Black Mausoleum" behind the high walls and locked gates of the "Covenanter’s Prison". ‌

As reported by Edinburgh Live , it is thought to be the spirit of Sir George Mackenzie - a 17th-century Lord Advocate who ­persecuted rebel Covenanters. ‌

It has been suggested the poltergeist is a supernatural entity, a pheromone cloud, a demon or a set of psychosomatic and hysterical reactions and hundreds of people have reported attacks after visiting the area.
