Geelong Gaol Ghost Tour

Geelong Gaol opened in 1853 and is one of Australia's most intact 19th century convict prisons.

Closing in 1991, this 3 story behemoth has had many roles in its history - from an industrial school for young girls, to a Prison of the ill, to a military detention barracks. The primitive conditions made it a hell on earth for many inside its walls. And many never left it alive!

Explore this prison after dark and be haunted by stories of convicts, murderers and lunatics who once called this three story blue stone building home.

The tour will take you back to a time when the building housed male and female prisoners, as well as children from the Geelong industrial school.

Led by costumed guides, these tours are limited to groups of 30.
