Ghost night at the cemetery - We got public transport to the cemetery, we were met at the gate and given a lantern prior to the start of the event which was run by brothers, which were extremely knowledgeable very sociable and made the evening very enjoyable and worth going. So much so we are venturing to the cemetery again in daylight .

Creepy and very well done - Very creepy tour with lots of very interesting stories. Also, the twins who were guiding it did a great job building atmosphere.

Definitely recommended - We thoroughly enjoyed our night. We have done many ghost tours around Australia and overseas, and your tours always rate highly with us. We love the true life stories, the highly researched backgrounds of the ppl who are buried there.
It's been a long time between drinks worth your tours. The last one we did was the last sleepover at boggo road. We would love to go back there!
Last night was amazing. There was so much activity. We captured many things in photos that are very clear. Thank you for offering these tours. It's highly educational and very enjoyable.

A must experience, historic and well presented tour. - The two young men, our guides, were exceptional in their presentation, knowledge, and care in keeping the company together and ensuring safety from marauding ghosts and walking on broken graves. Both young men spoke internationally accepted standard English and were adept at character acting when speaking as though they were characters long since buried. I consider this tour in the hands of such hosts to be a highlight of the Brisbane night.

Brilliant spooky history tour - This tour was so great. Our tour guides were brilliant and so knowledgeable.
They also spent the time after the tour to chat to us about our experience and other tours around the city. I could have spoken to Harley and Jean for hours!
Can't recommend this tour and this company enough!

2 hours of standing for a history lesson - The tour was good but it was more of a history lesson then a scary ghost tour.
More stories regarding how people died than ghost experiences had in the cemetery.
Be prepared to stand in the one spot for long periods of time as the hosts speak extremely slow ( for dramatic effect )
By the end of the 2 hours people were just sitting on the road, gutter or dirt.

Disappointed - I did this tour many years ago and it was great, Yesterday I decided to arrange a date night with my partner who has never experienced this tour before. However we were extremely disappointed. Our tour guide was in experienced didn't know where he was going half of the time, didn't know the full names of the deceased, such as Jack the rippers full name, Did not know the actual name of the beer that William Macnaughton Galloway drank, the guide said he drank triple XXX LoL. The tour is meant to last for 2 hours and it last for 1.5 hours. We did not see everything like the book we got handed to us at the end, Basically it was like a primary school excursion.
