Eerie Tours invites you to embark on an unforgettable journey into the darker side of Ballarat, a city rich in early Australian history and timeless charm. As evening falls, the streets transform into an atmospheric backdrop where Gothic inspired architecture casts long shadows and whispers of the past seem to linger in the air. Guided by storytellers who specialise in the eerie and unusual, you will unravel chilling tales of the people, events, and legends that shaped the spirit of this old gold rush town. Each step reveals another layer of mystery, offering a captivating mix of folklore, history, and paranormal intrigue.
This immersive experience leads you through quiet laneways and historic corners that once witnessed some of the most dramatic moments in the region. You will explore the very places where justice was served and stories of human resilience unfolded, walking through parts of Ballarat known for holding the highest number of executions outside the capital. With every tale told and every shadow encountered, the tour weaves together the heritage of the city with its haunting atmosphere, creating a night that is as fascinating as it is unsettling.

Had an excellent time last night when we went on this tour. Andrew has such fantastic historical knowledge and really had us engaged and thinking during the tour. It was thrilling hearing all of the different stories that took place and learning more about Ballarat. Thank you Andrew!

The reviews on this are spot on - Andrew is an incredibly passionate tour guide who oozes knowledge of local history. His tour literally takes you to the scene of the crime and his storytelling skills will keep your attention the whole time. Would 100% recommend!

I came here with my girlfriend on her birthday in March! This was an absolutely amazing tour, and took us all through the main streets of Ballarat! Andrew really knows his stuff! I highly recommend this tour and will definitely be coming again when we are next in Ballarat!
Joanne
I was very, very fortunate to be able to do this tour between Victoria's lockdowns and can highly recommend it, especially if you are interested in Ballarat's dark past and the tragedy that befell innocents. Andrew was very informative and I don't know how he remembers all the names, he does a great job. Thank you Andrew.

My husband and I joined the tour yesterday afternoon to learn some history about Ballarat, something interesting that you will not normally find via google. It turned out really really good, worth the money! The tour guide Andrew, he apparently grew up in this old town, knows and researched a lot of local history. We then joined the night tour as well called bloody Ballarat or true crime tour. We learnt a lot of cold cases, murder, suicide cases.....he brought us to where the murder exactly took place about 150 years ago, missing people, crime out of twisted love or jealousy etc. Some little lanes are full of stories, which wall was something else 200 years ago, etc. Very interesting, we really enjoyed the tour although it was really cold last night in Ballarat !
