Take a spine-chilling journey through the city's dark history, where the past lingers in haunted pubs and laneways. Enjoy an ale in a former police station now haunted by a mysterious murder of the past. Venture into a dark alley where the ghost of a tragic love affair roams.

You'll start your tour at the iconic Young & Jacksons Hotel, where the iconic painting of Chloe holds secrets, and her ghostly presence lingers. Enjoy a pint at Melbourne's oldest pub which holds a haunting legacy of a scandalous love affair. Uncover the mysteries of one of Melbourne's most scandalous member's clubs, where influential figures and secrets are concealed. Experience the eerie charm of Melbourne's most decadent arcades, where a ghostly apparition roams. The tour concludes at The Mitre.
