A CITY tourist attraction is allowing red-haired visitors in free today to mark Friday 13th.
Staff at the Edinburgh Dungeon have been instructed to waive the £11.95 entry fee for anyone with red, copper, ginger or even strawberry blonde hair. The offer also includes those with dyed hair.
Manager Rebecca Wakeford said: "Millions are superstitious about Friday 13th, convinced it brings them bad luck. For centuries, redheads were also thought to be unlucky. We may be tempting fate but we thought that it might be a nice break for red-haired people to get free entry.

The Edinburgh Dungeon invites you to a feast of fun with history's horrible bits. Live actors, an errie ride, shows and special effects transport you back to those black, bleak times. Are you brave enough?
You'll be exposed to torture, witchcraft, grave robbing, the plague, cannibalism and of course murder! Your journey into the dungeon begins in a 17th century court of law where an eccentric judge will haul you into the dock! Visitors are accused of a range of heinous crimes where the verdict is always 'guilty' and the punishment is always harsh!
