An eerie evening awaits you- find yourself engulfed by intriguing stories about Melbourne's supernatural history. Walk alongside an expert tour guide who will navigate your way through the spooky streets of Old Melbourne to relive some of the tragic tales and ghostly legends that took place on those very streets. This entertaining tour is routed along the city's haunted streets, peppered with quips, rumors, and haunted tales about Old Melbourne. Venture through Old Melbourne, a time when the spices of China Town masked the smoke of the opium dens, famous opera singer, Federici, plummeted to death in a dramatic performance, and poor houses supplied dead bodies to medical science!
