Today is my 30th Birthday and I wanted to write a post with it being so close to Halloween. My final trip to paranormal places in Australia ended at Fremantle Arts Center last month. Fremantle Arts Center, used to be an Asylum, Midwife Training Center, WW2 US Base, and College. It's now an art gallery. I went there with the intention of doing some sort of investigation, but to my surprise, they were holding an art exhibition there. Since I have a background in art, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit. So, I put down my EMF detector...and put on my artsy chapeau for the day.
The exhibition was great and very interesting. Unfortunately, I couldn't take pictures in hope of catching an art loving spirit. But in my research of Fremantle Arts Center, I did come across a great video documentary produced in the 1980s on several Australian hauntings.
The series is called "Haunted" and is an Australian documentary that investigates 14 credible cases of paranormal activity. It is hosted by Dr. Morris Marsh of the University of New England, New South Wales, Australia. Here is a link to the portion on Fremantle Art Center. I suggest you watch the rest of the series as well as it sheds some light on other paranormal places in Australia. Enjoy..and Happy Halloween!
On my vacation to Australia last month I decided to take in some of the tourist attractions--especially the weird, wild and 'paranormal' ones. My first stop was to Fremantle Prison. Why a prison you ask? Because it's said to be one of the most haunted places in all of Western Australia aside from the Fremantle Art Center, which I also visited. Below is my brief story of that visit, along with some pretty convincing photographic evidence of what appears to be a ghost on one of my pictures...
The story of Jandamarra is a tragic and inspiring one on the Australian outback. Jandamarra is a legend of the Bunuba people (an Aboriginal tribe in Australia). He is known as a rebel and outlaw to some... and a hero to others.
His story began in the Northern Territory of Western Australia where he grew up at a time when white settlers were first laying claim to Australia. Jandamarra was taught several skills from an early age including how to use a rifle and how to speak English. He was recruited by the police and forced to track down his own people and put them in jail for the white man. Then one day, he was given an ultimatum by an elder tribesman that would seal his fate.
Hey everyone, I'm headed to Western Australia this weekend and I'm staying there for a solid 2 weeks. In the 14 days I will be there, I will try to discover all the mysteries and paranormal places I can find in the outback. There are a few places I definitely plan on visiting--so hopefully, I can make part of my trip to Oz a dedicated paranormal investigation. I will have a blog post about an Australian native man named Jandamarra and the story about a creepy place called Tunnel Creek and why native women refuse to go there. I will also visit an art gallery that's said to be the most haunted place in Perth. Please stay tuned...
