Lantern Ghost Tours

This was a lot of fun:) Not normally my cup of tea tbh and got these vouchers for a gift for a friend's Birthday present and went along. If the Ghost thing isn't ya vibe and you are into the History of Melbourne - then definitely consider doing these tours. We did the "Spirits & Ales Haunted Pub Tour" and learnt some really cool facts and rumours about Melbourne and it's buildings. Did you know the famous (in Melbourne hehe) painting in Young & Jackson hosted in the Chloe's restaurant that her name is Marie! and that Cloe is her Sister! The prices are reasonable as the tours don't (or didn't on this trip) include a welcome drink to the publicans we visited so read ya tour information carefully to set the scene before arrival :) and eat beforehand hehe :) Shout out to Julie - our guide who was amazing, fabulous and super cool :) Definitely will look to do more of these tours in the future and with this company (probably when it's a bit warmer hehe) as their knowledge and selection are tops :)

Did an Old Melbourne Tour with Charlotte as our guide. She's awesome! Lots of information delivered in a fun and interactive way. Definitely recommend her. Plus I had a paranormal encounter, so Im not complaining lol

We just did the night ghost tour of J Ward prison in Ararat. Our tour guide Maureen was well versed on the history and included some of her experiences there as a guide. We were surprised to be able to use dousing rods throughout the tour as well as trying on the straight jackets used back in the day. The tour concluded with a short video made in 1979 showing some of the inmates in the exercise yards and conversations with a George character who had been there for 20 years. It's really hard to believe this place as old as it is, was still being used in the 1970's without much modifications.

Hi everyone! I was pleased to attend on a tour with Timea with a group last night around Melbourne. The pub ghost crawl. The venues were absolutely stunning and so were the stories as well as spooky. Timea is a fantastic guide, knowledgeable and very captivating. I will definitely go on another tour. Perhaps on a less “convivial” one however.

The Melbourne Spirits and Ales Haunted Ghost Tours by Lantern Ghost tours was incredible. Julie was fantastic, full of compelling stories with a dose of theatrics thrown in. She was warm, engaging, knowledgeable and funny. The tale of Chloe at Young and Jackson’s gave us chills . Julies ability to weave together ghostly stories with historical facts about Melbourne made the tour informative and entertaining.With stops at some of the city’s most atmospheric pubs and historic sites , this tour offers a unique way to experience Melbournes past .A must do tour for Melbourne locals and tourists !

We attended the Williamstown Walking Ghost Tour with Timea, and it was fabulous. Learnt lots of interesting local history, and had a few 'encounters'. Timea was a knowledgeable and entertaining host and I would highly recommend her.

I highly recommend the Lantern Ghost Tours of D Division at Pentridge Prison, Coburg. It is a tour that tells you the history of the prison and some of the more famous inmates, including Mark "Chopper" Read. I personally am not a believer in ghosts but when you feel cold air blowing on you on a very hot night with no wind, it is a very strange feeling. This tour is recommended for people that are paranormal believers or history buffs. We went on the 2 hour tour, but they also have longer paranormal investigations and overnight stays The tour groups are small so it is quite an intimate experience.

Enjoyed the tour and macabre history of inner city Melbourne. Timea is a wealth of knowledge.
