These tours are to inspire inquisitive locals of Redlands to discover the fascinating history of the haunts, myths and mysteries that surround them. The ghost tours and experiences by Ghost Tours Australia endeavours to encourage locals and tourists, to explore the lovely Redlands further and benefitting other the local businesses in the region, closely aligning with Redlands City Council's Events Strategy 2024-2029.
"On the Haunted Redlands Ghost Bus Tour & Dinner at the Grand View Hotel, we will meet at the hotel and visit various locations around the Redlands coast region, hear stories at those locations before ending up back at the hotel to have a lovely dinner in the recently renovated landmark Hotel…", Jack Sim states.
"In all, I have interviewed about 40 people who worked at historic places like the Old Courthouse Restaurant, the Grand View Hotel, Whepstead Manor, Ormiston House or lived in or around Spook Hill…
The stories that we are sharing on the tours come from local people or people who visited the Redlands. Some of the stories go back as far as the 1950s and even earlier", Owner and Director of Ghost Tours Australia, Jack Sim said.
