Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Finally after weeks of nothingness the craziness of Christmas shopping has commenced in our town. Ah yes...obviously these last few days is a time of total frustration for many families as they try to manage bills with gift buying and the days of a $5 gift are well and truely dead. I try and avoid this time by keeping busy and keeping it simple.
I spent the morning with my psychic's hat on at "APPARITIONS" at Raymond Terrace were I had a young lady with quite a heartfelt dilemma as her desires were being torn between and betwixt two suitors... I hope that I was of some help allowing the cards to speak of the pitfalls of manipulative entanglements and complicated pathways.

This evening I was out taking some pictures of one very old and quite run down TRAM STATION at Wallsend. It is situated next to the High School but barricaded with the promise that one day soon it will be torn down and forgotten, just like most other things in this city once they are old and of no use to anyone - a bit like people really. Left to rot and decay, neglected and void of feelings everything does quietly and eventually dissappear. It is only then that we notice that something may have been there in the first place....

Title: Haunting History and Ghostly Whispers: The Story of Morisset Insane Asylum

If you’re fascinated by eerie places, spine-chilling ghost stories, and a slice of Australian history, then you’re in for a treat. Today, we’re diving into the intriguing past of one of New South Wales’ most infamous locations – the Morisset Insane Asylum, nestled in the quiet town of Morisset near Newcastle. Ready to uncover its secrets? Let’s go! The Beginning: When and Why Was Morisset Insane Asylum Created? Back in the early 1900s, mental health care was a very different beast from what it is today. In 1908, the Morisset Insane Asylum was established to serve as a psychiatric hospital primarily for patients from the Hunter Region and northern NSW. The government needed a facility to care for those struggling with mental illnesses, and Morisset was chosen for its remote and tranquil setting—ideal, they thought, for healing. The asylum was built with a mix of imposing brick buildings and sprawling grounds. It was designed not just as a hospital but as a self-sufficient commun...

Lemon Tree Passage Ghost - Local legend is alive and well

Lemon Tree Passage is a suburb of the Port Stephens local government area in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, located at the end of the Tilligerry Peninsula and surrounded by the waters of beautiful Port Stephens . Ever since I can remember there have been a few urban legends about a stretch of highway named Lemon Tree Passage Road. The story begins when a motor bike rider and his pillion passenger died after colliding with a four wheel drive killing both. This seems to be the source of the ghostly lights and apparition. These sort of events don't stay quiet in small townships. Stories spread fast often not ending up like they started. Every so often this urban legend makes a comeback with a number to people tempting fate and poking the ghost rider.

Diary of a Ghost Hunter - The Wallacia Hotel

We were given the opportunity of staying overnight at the Wallachia Hotel in Western Sydney. The hotelwas officially opened on December 3rd 1937. During the Second World War the hotel was used as the Army headquarters for radiopyhysics. I had never been to the Wallacia Hotel before, but, my ghost hunting gal pal Anne, had been there about 5 years ago with a group of Paranormal Investigators that she was working with at the time. We arrived and we were greeted by Craig, the night manager, who welcomed us with open arms. Craig recognised Anne from the last time she had visited. Anne asked whether any spooky things had been happening over the last few years. Craig said that he always thought that there was something a little bit weird going on late at night. Over the last few months everything had changed as the Hotel had been very much affected by the COVID lock downs This was a huge hotel with quite an interesting history even though in the whole scheme of things the h...
