Darkside Tours:
Paisley After Dark
True stories. Real people. The shadows of Paisley’s past.
When daylight fades, Paisley’s streets tell a different story.
Join us for an atmospheric evening walk through the town’s darker history – a guided journey lit by lantern light and shaped by the voices that know these streets best.
This isn’t a ghost walk or a fright night. It’s a storytelling experience rooted in real events, forgotten places and human stories that history left in the shadows.
Led in partnership with Paisley Darkside Historical Walking Tours, this 90-minute experience explores crime, superstition, industry and faith – the mix of light and dark that shaped the Paisley we know today.
