Join us for Secrets of the South Brisbane Cemetery — a torchlit night-time experience that lifts the lid on some of the most curious, overlooked, and downright bizarre truths hidden among the graves of this iconic Victorian-era cemetery.

This isn’t a ghost tour — it’s something even more unusual. On this walk through the shadows, you’ll uncover the real stories that don’t make the history books, but are buried deep in cemetery records, faded headstones, and old council maps. It’s a night of strange discoveries, urban oddities, and the forgotten dead.

Expect to uncover:

🚧 The murderers buried beneath the road
⚰️ A single grave holding 96 souls — and why?
🕳️ The mystery of South Brisbane Cemetery’s “lost residents”
🪦 Vanishing headstones and the tales they once told
📦 Bodies that didn’t start here — and how they arrived

Guided by your passionate guides, this tour is a safe, insightful way to explore the cemetery under the stars, and to hear the little-known tales that have slowly faded from public memory.

History has its secrets. Come find the ones that were never meant to stay buried.
