J Ward Overnight Paranormal Investigation

If you are not mad now, you may be after spending a night at the Ararat Asylum.

It was once home to the criminally insane and housed the likes of Chopper Reed, Gary Webb and William Wallace. 

The most depraved and most dangerous men in Victoria were housed in horrific conditions in the Asylum under the highest security.  And you get to experience it all.  At night.  Sleeping in the original gaol cells.  Who was in yours?

The evening begins with a 2-hour, eerie ghost tour of the Asylum.  Explore the governor’s bathroom, the hangman’s gallows, the shower block, gravesites and the infamous J Ward block. 

You will see the place where murderers breathed their last.  You will see where their bodies are buried in unconsecrated ground, in unmarked graves.  You might hear of escapes or suicides or of twelve-year-olds caged here.

After supper, during the night, you join a team of investigators.  Will you discover paranormal activity?  A ghost from the past?

If that’s not enough to send shivers down your back, you’ve got all night to enjoy, sleeping in the original Gaol cells.  Every creak, every sound.  Cool breezes.  Can you bear it?  Or will you make an exit?
