Thank God it's Friday

I started today by doing a recording in my car on the way to Anne's place to go live on the SPIRIT REALM NETWORK in America and of course I cannot work out how to upload to to my supporters Facebook page.

So I am back on to Blogger to write down my thoughts.

Today has been off the charts busy with another 15 hour day for us from our Live stream to the end of our Maitland Gaol tour tonight.

Currently, I am taking a break from recording another episode for our TRUE HAUNTINGS PODCAST (find the link below), so that we can have something to eat and deal with a lady who is currently experiencing what I can only classify as poltergeist activity.

We have spoken to her and we have looked at what the causes of this activity might be and we will need some time to sit and talk more how we can help her help herself in this particular situation.

All these situations are so different and any consultation is difficult because we cannot underestimate what we are really dealing with and we cannot make assumptions from one interview. So much talking and allowing this lay to know that we are here to help her is the very first thing we can do to settle worn and shattered nerves.

Then...

We will complete our podcast recording - and an hour of a produced podcast will often take about 2 hours to record.

Then it is off to Maitland Gaol to do our Ghost Hunting 101 ghost hunt with a group of guests tonight and we will also be trialing a new volunteer for the team.

Tomorrow we are heading to Dubbo for a tour.

Back on Sunday to make it for our weekly Spooky Sundays radio show.

Phew!

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.

RICHMOND GAOL - A STONE COLD START

Nestled in the picturesque town of Richmond, about 25 km northeast of Hobart, Richmond Gaol is Australia’s oldest intact colonial gaol—built between 1825 and 1840 using convict labor  Initially erected as a courthouse in 1825 (just a year after Richmond was proclaimed a village), it gradually expanded over 15 years to include a cookhouse, men’s and women’s wings, solitary confinement cells, and a surrounding sandstone wall by 1840  . 🛏️ Facilities & Daily Life: Cold Stone, Brutal Rules The Layout & Buildings include a Men’s wing, chain-gang sleeping rooms, holding rooms, a cookhouse, flogging yard, privy, and the only surviving example of a female solitary cell in Tasmania  Solitary Cells These notorious cells measure just 2 m × 1 m—dark, utterly confined, and completely silent. A bucket and a thin blanket were the only company, with bread and water for nourishment. Prisoners spent up to 21 days inside, forbidden even to speak. For us today even spending an hour confi...

Haunted Gladesville Asylum

In the dead of night on Sydney’s Parramatta River, an abandoned asylum sits cloaked in darkness – Gladesville Mental Hospital, once known as Tarban Creek Lunatic Asylum. The History of Gladesville Mental Hospital Gladesville Mental Hospital’s story begins in colonial Sydney with lofty ideals and grim realities. Opened in 1838 as the Tarban Creek Lunatic Asylum, it was Australia’s first purpose-built mental hospital. The site – aptly located at Bedlam Point on the river – was initially designed by Colonial Architect Mortimer Lewis and meant to house just 60 patients in humane conditions. Early superintendents like Dr. John Thomas Digby and later Dr. Frederick Norton Manning sincerely aimed to “treat” rather than merely confine the mentally ill. Manning in particular, after studying overseas, condemned the asylum’s original “prison-like” atmosphere and worked to minimize restraints and improve diets and recreation by the 1870s. In 1869 the name was changed from “Lunatic Asylum” to Gla...
