Join Dark Tours as they lead you through all an interactive history and ghost hunt in one of Newcastle’s most famous historical sites, Fort Scratchley by night!
Make your way through the historic tunnels and hear the history of this once operating fort containing military memorabilia and get interactive with a wide range of ghost hunting devices and a series of experiments within the tunnels!
We hope you like the dark!
Experience an opportunity of a lifetime and be plunged into complete darkness during one of our experiments inside the tunnels and discover what it was like for the military men inside the tunnels in the dark!
Can we match any answers to the history using our devices?
Will we encounter the re-enactment of history itself with the sound of guns firing or the voices of military men?
Will we feel any energy left behind from the past?
Will you discover anything while conducting your own experiments?
With Fort Scratchley and the Fort’s tunnels being one of Newcastle’s most historical sites on the map this is a truly fascinating location and with 50% of your ticket purchase going directly back to Fort Scratchley to maintain this wonderful historical landmark this is a tour experience not to be missed, especially at night!
