Remains of wizard's house of horrors are found... hidden inside a Quaker meeting place

Their crimes were so awful that they were executed and their house – thought to be teeming with evil spirits – was abandoned and left to decay for centuries before being knocked down. But in the best traditions of horror movies, it seems the Edinburgh home of occultist Major Thomas Weir and his sister Jean is back from the dead. The Weirs were executed in 1670 after admitting to shocking crimes including bestiality, incest and necromancy. According to folklore, their house, said to be the capital’s most haunted home, then stood empty before being demolished in the 19th century, this month's edition of the Fortean Times said. But researchers have discovered that the builders of a church, now the Quaker Meeting House in Victoria Terrace, actually incorporated the old dwelling into the structure.
