Here are a few of the locations we have filmed in for the TV show
All locations in Victoria
Blackwood Hotel - Blackwood
Geelong Gaol - Geelong
Melton Equestrian School - Melton
Castlemaine (Battleship) - Williamstown
Kilmore Town Hall - Kilmore
Clarkefield Pub - Clarkefield
Walhalla Historic Township - Walhalla
Cape Otway Lighthouse - Cape Otway
The Treasury Building - Melbourne CBD
Aradale Experimental Psych Hospital - Ararat
French Island Gaol - French Island
All sites are available for investigation if you ask nicely. The owners/operators of these locations were really cool and some were so impressed by the TV show that they opened their doors to paranormal teams. This was a first for some and a major step forward for all para teams here in Melbourne!

Aradale has now officially closed. The location is not longer accessible by anyone.
This place was by far the best location in Australia. It has a dark history, 63 abandoned buildings and wasn't as publicised as other key locations in Australia.
Was it haunted? Who knows. Was it an spooky arse location? Sure was.

It's due to the dangerous conditions of some of the buildings. It's been closed since 1993 and has had no maintenance since. It's a really nice location but it was broken into on a regular basis by locals or groups who didn't have permission to be there. These people either vandalised or broke their way in damaging the facility and now, finally, ruining the experience for everyone. Not a lot of groups gained official access which is why we'd arrange for newer groups to gain access legally. An opportunity they would have never got otherwise.

I'll miss the place. It's a good 3.5 hour drive away and well worth it.
