sydney ghost tours -
"ghosts, gravestones & goosebumps"
family friendly ghost tour
take your family on a "frightseeing" adventure,
into sydney's dark past
In Sydney’s lower North Shore, we run the "Ghosts, Gravestones & Goosebumps" Ghost tour (for parents with kids from 9 up). This tour is aimed primarily at teens. It visits a cursed Aboriginal site, the grounds of a Victorian era haunted mansion, and a historic cemetery, complete with resident ghosts.
Will you and your kids feel the chill of electricity running up your spine, or a shiver through your body from a spirit passing through you tonight?
BREAKING NEWS - SYDNEY'S "DAILY TELEGRAPH" CONFIRMS THAT A SITE ON THIS TOUR IS HAUNTED - CLICK HERE
NOTE WELL: This is a modified version of the Haunted Sydney Adult Ghost tour that we run later in the night. If you have ever watched a Shrek movie, or seen the Warner Brothers Cartoons of the 40's and 50's - you will notice that young kids get one meaning, and adults understand that what is being said often means something else completely. We strive to keep everyone on the tour entertained in this way... !
We call ourselves Australia's most authentic ghost tours for a reason. All of our tours have to talk about what happened when people were alive, so that when we talk about what happened after they died, it actually makes sense. Nearly all paranormal activity is usually associated with traumatic events that took place when people were alive. So we have to explain this, within the context of the time in which these events took place. What was normal, and taken for granted then, is are very, very different to today.
As a result, 70% of all of our tours are documented fact, 10% are our "joining the dots" from many years of research, and the " local legends" or Paranormal parts of our tour make up the remaining 20% . However most of what we have to talk about is taken from original documentation, contemporary to the time, not academics passing opinions on other academics opinions. Most of these documents have never been available to Australian historians up until very recently, and most are still not aware of them even now. They were only recently found in archives, scanned, and been made available. It is gritty, real, absolutely mind blowing, and completely changes what we thought we knew.
We start our tours explaining the context of the reality of early aboriginal and colonial life - and get darker and darker into the physical and then into the paranormal as the tour progresses.
All tour participants under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult on the tour. The minimum ratios of adults to kids is one adult to three kids. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to ensure that the kids are quiet, attentive, courteous and safe.
Anyone being disruptive, intoxicated or behaving in an unreasonable manner on the tour will be asked to leave, and no refund will be made. If this is a child, then the responsible adult will be asked to leave with them. It is unfair to the other people on the tour to be prevented from enjoying what they have paid for.
( We do not operate in dangerous weather such as heavy rain, or thunderstorms. Parts of this tour visits locations that a are prone to poor drainage, and lightning strikes. In the situation that we have to postpone, We will issue you with a gift certificate valid for 3 years, for twice what you have paid for. This way, you will get to come at a later time, and bring friends with you, on us. For more information on our terms of trade, click here. When you purchase tickets, you are agreeing to these terms )
We have a lot of good fun and belly laughs on Sydney Ghost Tours. Most people just come in comfortable, casual evening clothes. If you decide that you want to really make a night out of it, walk on the wild side and dress up as your favourite spooky figure to come on the tour , and perhaps go to dinner afterwards, knock yourself out. Just remember to bring warm clothes, and some good walking shoes - it gets a bit cold on winter nights, and graveyards can be a bit unforgiving on high heels or dress shoes...!
Like all of our walking tours, this tour is a Historic Ghost tour.
We have to talk about some really extraordinary history, so that the context of the ghost stories make sense . ( This won't be the dry, stuffy history as you remember from school. This stuff is gritty, real and fascinating!) . About 70% of what we talk about is taken from peoples letters, diaries and public records. 10% of the tour will be my own opinion and "connecting the dots" from years of dedicated research. The 20% Paranormal part of the tour is a completely "make your own mind up" exercise....!
Tours begin at the entrance of Stocklands Mall Cammeray Square, opposite Wild Sage Restaurant, on the corner of Miller Street and Amherst Streets in Cammeray. (Same location starting point as the Lower North Shore Ghost tour above).
