rom cold, chilling presences to actual sightings of apparitions, Ghost Tours are designed to present stories of ghostly encounters in haunted locations throughout Brisbane & South-East Queensland. Every story is different and there are a number of different haunted activities you can undertake including:

* GHOST WALKS

* HAUNTED SLEEP-OVERS

* GHOST BUS TOURS

* INTERVIEWS, RESEARCH AND COLLECTION OF STORIES

Stories, facts and historical information are researched and new stories are regularly added to the tours.

The number of people on each tour is limited to ensure that the atmosphere is personal and to be respectful of those who have departed this world but have not made it to the next.

Ghost Tours are designed to be serious and therefore do not run theatrical tours. There are no guarantees that you will see a ghost although people have experienced some cold chills and seen some unexplainable things. You are welcome to bring a camera as you never know what might turn up on the film...

Concessions are available for Students, Children under 16, Pensioners & Travelers cards (YHA, VIP etc). *

This guided tour, undertaken by Jack Sim, will take you to Brisbane’s most haunted places, including the very beautiful and historic Toowong Cemetery at night. Hear stories of statues that come alive and move, haunted avenues, vampyres that are said to stalk visitors at dusk, mysterious dark-cloaked figures who cross the grounds with candles, voices that call from within sealed tombs, fogs and mists that curl out of graves, and finally decide for yourself whether a particular gravesite really does contain the remains of the killer who took the lives of nine people in London last century. Is Jack the Ripper buried in Brisbane? Be warned this is one eerie journey...
