Spooky video of 'Edinburgh man wearing robe' in the dark goes viral

A spooky video of a mysterious figure captured in Edinburgh has been watched over 100,000 times.

The video was captured by capital local and Tik Tok user @abbi.hutton1 who claimed she 'saw someone standing' in the middle of Water of Leith while out for a walk.

In the video, the young woman can be heard saying: "I'm sorry but Wtf, there is someone standing there with a white robe on, they are just standing there, they are not moving."

The spooky TikTok was uploaded with the caption: " Nah what the actual f*** is that????? #edinburgh."

The video has since attracted hundreds of comments with people trying to figure out what the creepy figure in the capital was.

WARNING: This video contains strong language.

One person commented: "You sure it's no a bag stuck on a tree or something." to which the woman responded: "Looks too much like a person to me. Could be. I didn't inspect it, no way."

Another person added: "Mare am in Liv and that's a ghost it has to be."

"Another reason to no go near Edinburgh," penned another Scot.

Another reckoned they has cracked the case, saying: "If this is in Leith it's a statue of a man that is meant to be there, don't ask why."
