Madam McKinnon is rotted to the core, but still has a heart! Believe it or not, she was once in love 😍. Her lover even came to her ex*****on. They performed a little ceremony to say goodbye 😢

Instead of asking for a last drink, Madam McKinnon asked for a wedge of orange 🍊. The bartender almost fainted, a Scot refusing a drink and eating fruit! 🫨 But she had a plan, you see. Standing on the gallows rope around her neck, she held the wedge of orange between her lips and on her last dying breath, she bit down. Her lover, standing in the crowd with his own wedge of orange, did the same. The release of sweet juices over their lips was to represent one last parting kiss 💋

How sweet! 😍 Unfortunately when Madam McKinnon knocked on her lover's door to reunite, he ran away 😢 Shocked by this turn of events and repulsed by her rotting co**se 💀

Don't let your love rot this Valentine's day! 💘 Get them a spooky experience in our beautiful capital and book below 👇
