Also, hope you don’t mind. Added your channel onto our featured channels on our TH-cam home page. Might nudge some more people to find you. Did not want to do it without letting you know.
@@ClanBroonford oh wow! That's amazing guys, thank you so much. You are far too kind! We'd love to do the same for you on our channel, as small as our little channel is. Thanks again!
Scottish justice! 😂 I love these stories. Edinburgh sure did like burning & hanging folks! I didn’t know about the gold bricks. 👍🏻 Oh and the witch’s hat for the video still photo, nice touch Tony 😅
Hi ya! Great video on the history of witch trials and the fates of those women. I was in Edinburgh last summer. We took a tour with one of the ghost tour troupes. They were excellent. We didn't cover the witches with that one. I will be back in Edinburgh next summer (2020). I love watching your videos. You are so good at this. I can now determine where you are as you go along. I LOVE Edinburgh and Scotland. LOVE IT! I wish it were possible for me to move there to teach. I hope to see you out and about next time I'm there (I'll be with an educational tour group). So if you see a red-haired - ehmm...slightly older - woman madly waving and heading in your direction, you're safe. I'm a fan. I should say 'we'. My husband is also a huge fan. You don't move the camera so fast like some do. You pan and zoom like a pro. You are calm and clever without being chippy and too bubbly. We like your witty sense of humor. You do not 'yell' into the camera like a few we've seen. We watch you often. Take care and keep up the great work. Cheers!
Im frome Chile and im now in Edinburgh, i was looking today for witch tours and this video gave me everything i needed! Maybe ill still look for a witch tour for some interesting tales but the video was very complete :)
Thank you for thinking to share about the areas connected to es Edinburgh's witch history . There's not much visible research material available on this for Scotland. 🏴🌌🙏🏻
Hi Tony, great video. And, one more time, thank you so much! You show me where to go and what to see in this beatiful city and I loved it! I'm leaving Edinbourgh today but I'll be back! Thank you!
Thanks Tony! It’s been 30 years since I was in Edinburgh and your videos have been incredibly helpful in jogging my memory and remembering what an incredible place it is. I’m coming back for a visit this summer and your videos have given me so much insight into new places to visit and familiar places to revisit. You’re like the unofficial ambassador of Edinburgh. Great job! Please keep ‘em coming.
I love the interesting tales of Edingburgh! I visited there two years ago and it is so fun to watch you go around the places I visited. You really live in the most amazing place.
It's soooo nice have a matinal walking in Edinburgh, see the fog I love, hear witch's history, and even so being on my seat having a breakfast. Thank you!!
Thank you for all the information, I really enjoyed that, A witch tour is brilliant, we did one on one of our visits to beautiful Edinburgh, though sad as well,
Math latha Mr. Broonfords - I have followed you for 2 or 3 years now, and we love your videos. We was in Edinburgh last year in August 2018. And we already miss Edinburgh so much now, that we going back in May 2019 the dates are from 8 to 13 May and yeah that's in a few months🍺 So if you are up for it we can meet up for a pint or two. 🍻
I am watching this and chuckling to myself. You are speaking English, but it takes me a few seconds to process it, because of your thick Scottish accent.( he- he- he)
Growing up in Dalkeith I remember my parents telling me that witches where tortured hanged and burned near Dalkeith country park and that the Newbattle woods where apparently haunted, there is actual a lot of interesting history online and dark interesting stories in every area Scotland has a really rich history.
🌹💙 Thank you for creating and sharing this video. I am a traditional witch of Scottish heritage; this is so sad. Approximately between 3K-4K people (men and women) met their death so horrifically in Scotland alone. Any future videos on this subject would be appreciated; I live in the states and have yet to visit Scotland 🏴, and being a senior citizen with health issues, I might not be able to visit, so this information is awesome! Bright Blessings! 🌞🙏
Braw video, Tony, even on such a dreich day. As always, a lot of interesting information. Hearing of St. Anthony's Chapel being graffittied is triggering😠, ...why cannae people have more respect and leave alone? Slàinte
That was great. I have been up the royal mile a few times and past some of these spots and never knew what they were for. Three gold bricks! They all they could do to Mark a spot where so many were hung! And a small fountain for 300 burnt. Those poor people, they are worth more than that after what they went through. So awful, it’s such a beautiful place with a violent history
Hello, hello! Excellent video! A great variety of different places. I ve been at all and i miss tthose stunning places which have fullfiled my soul. There are walking history tours, really interesting, when you see opened umbrellas, means - walking tours. Liked the witch history . I m getting used to your nice videos. After a hard day it was really great to watch the video. Thank you very much 😉😉😉 you are going to be famous, yes you arel😉
Since stumbling upon your videos yesterday, I’ve kind of been binge-watching. One thing I do not like about them, though: When watching I want to go to Edinburgh even more and I won’t be going until the end of July! :( I also would like to ask you if you could do a video about Cramond Island? Regards, Kirsten (yes, really) from The Netherlands
I love anything witchy related and love Scotland. Just took a DNA test and found out I'm about half so I'm even more interested 😄 thank you for the interesting video. I need to come and visit. Beautiful scenery and architecture ❤️
Love your videos my daughter and I just love Edinburgh you would think we were tourist's we live in Kirkcaldy Lol but we love the history of Edinburgh I've got so much to show her and tell her I'll just pretend I know it all 🤣 then on the way home I'll tell her the truth keep those videos coming take care x
Love going to Edinburg not been there in a while cos of the pandemic I need to go back maybe this Halloween and it’s so sad for these women who were accused of being witches when they weren’t
Interesting!! Just out of curiosity - do you know if any males were accused? Or was it purely just women? Such a sad period of history around the world.
Interesting video. Thank you. I love seeing Edinburgh. Someone else made comment and I am interested in knowing. Why always women. What about the warlocks.
Wow that 'memorial' is messed up. It's saying 'Well some of them deserved it'. Eh, they were abused, tortured, humiliated and eventually murdered in the worst possible way for possibly being what we would call a little bit 'extra' nowadays or just because someone didn't like them so accused them. Nasty, awful stuff. A bit of reverence is called for instead of the joviality. They weren't 'witches' to start with they were just women trying to go about their business.
Great video as always, so interesting to hear about all the witchy goings on of Edinburgh.
All those poor women though, so sad.
It is, but you have to embrace our history both good and bad.
Also, hope you don’t mind. Added your channel onto our featured channels on our TH-cam home page. Might nudge some more people to find you. Did not want to do it without letting you know.
@@ClanBroonford true, I suppose it is all part of our story.
@@ClanBroonford oh wow! That's amazing guys, thank you so much. You are far too kind!
We'd love to do the same for you on our channel, as small as our little channel is.
Thanks again!
Wow, that’s a whole lot more than Salem, MA.
Scottish justice! 😂 I love these stories. Edinburgh sure did like burning & hanging folks! I didn’t know about the gold bricks. 👍🏻
Oh and the witch’s hat for the video still photo, nice touch Tony 😅
Thanks, I thought the hat looked good.
Great channel and brilliant wee video here! You live here your whole life and you're still learning things, so interesting! :)

Another great video Tony. It was the same way in the USA. People killed for being a witch. 👍🏻👍🏻
Yeah I have read a little about it ver your side of the pond as well.
The Salem Witch Trials in the late 1600s, I studied the Witch Trials for history at college 🎓
I am watching this and chuckling to myself. You are speaking English, but it takes me a few seconds to process it, because of your thick Scottish accent.( he- he- he)
I think you might get a fright if you come to Edinburgh. I have quite a soft accent.
I LOVE your videos! They are the best around. You take us to all the places like a tour. Princes St my haunts.
Great tour keep going thanks

Sad to hear about St Anthony’s Chapel being vandalized.
Have you ever been to Lauriston Castle?
No I haven't, but hopefully will get there fairly soon.
Thanks!
Thank you.
great vídeo mate 👏
Thank you.
On my Bucket list to come to Scotland
Interesting thank u
great video, sometimes when plans change its turns out better. lol
Yeah, lucky my brain has a lot of random facts in it.
Excellent video!
The barrel of nails witch trial - holy shit that's evil !!
Very interesting! Great video
Thank you.
My name is Gary Lyons and I find this very sad and I'm sorry for all that died at the hand of the church very sad.
Love going to Edinburg not been there in a while cos of the pandemic I need to go back maybe this Halloween and it’s so sad for these women who were accused of being witches when they weren’t
Interesting!! Just out of curiosity - do you know if any males were accused? Or was it purely just women? Such a sad period of history around the world.
You are the 3rd person to ask. I honestly have no idea.
thebusyblondie I’ve just had a look on the internet...84% women and 15% men 🤨
Claire Devine interesting!! Thanks!
The Broonfords no worries! Interesting topic all around! 👍🏻
Interesting
I heard you got some underground places in the city
RIP ladies
RIP poor people
Have you two eaten at The Witchery? Great food! Great place! Have a nice blether with James Thompson. He's very nice and knowledgeable.
Not yet. Would love to.
Interesting video. Thank you. I love seeing Edinburgh. Someone else made comment and I am interested in knowing. Why always women. What about the warlocks.
I really don't know if men were burnt at the stake or not.
Can you explain what's on your sweatshirt. Who are those bitmogis?
They are Marty McFly, Biff Tannen and Doc Brown from Back to the Future.
Awesome 😎I can’t believe I didn’t recognize them.
So sad poor women
How did they get away with that logic....amazing...sad...but hilarious as the same time....good video
RIP to all those poor people killed at the stake evil times
But what if you were there, in a Past Life at the Witch Trials. And this is why your doing the Vlog. 🤔not completely being serious btw.
You never know.
All those poor suffering women
Wow that 'memorial' is messed up. It's saying 'Well some of them deserved it'. Eh, they were abused, tortured, humiliated and eventually murdered in the worst possible way for possibly being what we would call a little bit 'extra' nowadays or just because someone didn't like them so accused them. Nasty, awful stuff. A bit of reverence is called for instead of the joviality. They weren't 'witches' to start with they were just women trying to go about their business.
Interesting th u
Odd, how the witches were always women. Or did they burn "warlocks" as well?
Gordon Warlow Thomas Weir. By far the most disturbing story I find that comes out of Edinburgh with all its burnings and haunted history.
I genuinely don't know if men were burnt for witchcraft.
The amount of Tourists that think Princes Street is Princess Street. 🙄😆
This is true.
Scotland is the holy land. Edinburgh is Eden.
laughing as he decribes the way women were tortured into admitting they were a witch??? wtf?? jesus
Which Witch history are you talking about? :D
Nice.👍
Evil times
Why whould someone do that to a old building disrepect
It is a pity that those days are over. Witches have multiplied and there is nobody to burn them.
dacz gegrbt Yes. Many of them are across the pond, posing as U.S. members of Congress or Senators!
Gordon Warlow Ha, ain’t that the truth.
