Tips from locals
The 2-hour Aradale Ghost Tour is bizarre, entertaining, and creepy! Suited for ages 8+ with parental discretion advised. Online bookings are essential!
Experience the bizarre history, personal stories, and brutal events that happened in the 130 years of operation at the Aradale Lunatic Asylum. Explore every section of the facilities for ghosts.
Seriously Spooky!! Highly recommended! Aradale is Australia's largest abandoned lunatic asylum. Opened in 1867 as Ararat Lunatic Asylum, this building housed tens of thousands of people described as "lunatics", "idiots" and "imbeciles" - some of them described as the worst lunatics in the British Empire.
