Old Parramatta Gaol - 2 hour Ghost Hunt

Step beyond the towering sandstone walls of the infamous Old Parramatta Gaol and explore the haunting corridors of Wings 4, 5 and 6 during this immersive 2-hour paranormal investigation.

Built in the 1830s, this imposing former House of Correction has witnessed almost 200 years of crime, punishment, despair and death. Murderers, bushrangers, the criminally insane, hardened offenders and countless forgotten souls all passed through these gates. Some believe not all of them ever left.

As darkness falls, the Gaol transforms. The heavy cell doors creak open, long-abandoned wings fall eerily silent, and every shadow seems to hide a story waiting to be uncovered.

Throughout the evening, you'll hear the true history of this notorious prison before taking part in guided paranormal investigation sessions using specialised equipment. Guests and investigators have reported unexplained footsteps, disembodied voices, shadow figures, sudden cold spots, phantom touches and other experiences that continue to defy explanation.

Whether you're a sceptic, a believer or simply curious, this is your chance to experience one of Australia's most historically significant and reportedly haunted prisons after dark.

Step inside... and discover what may be waiting in the darkness.

What happens during a ghost hunt?

A ghost hunt is an interactive paranormal investigation where you become part of the investigation. Rather than simply hearing ghost stories, you'll explore this historic prison after dark while taking part in structured experiments designed to investigate reported paranormal activity.

During your experience you will:

• Discover the fascinating history of Old Parramatta Gaol and hear the true stories behind its most infamous inmates and reported hauntings.
• Investigate alongside experienced paranormal investigators who will guide you through different investigation techniques.
• Take part in guided vigils, spirit communication experiments and observation sessions.
• Use specialised paranormal equipment, including EMF meters, spirit boxes, trigger objects and audio recorders (equipment may vary).
• Experience quiet investigation periods where you can observe, listen and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Gaol.
• Enjoy opportunities to conduct your own investigations in small groups under the guidance of our team.

No experience is necessary. Whether you're attending your very first ghost hunt or have years of investigating behind you, our events are designed to be engaging, immersive and unforgettable.

While paranormal activity can never be guaranteed, many guests leave with experiences they simply can't explain.

Come with an open mind... you never know who—or what—you might encounter.
