Explore one of Queensland's grandest and most beautiful Victorian-era cemeteries under the stars with the people who know it best.
The Folklore, Myth and Magick tour is a special night-time experience. You will discover some remarkable Real History of the folklore of death and cemeteries. On this tour we look at festivals, superstitions and magick from around the world, from Ancient Egypt to Ireland to Mexico, and death-related myths of birds, flowers, spells, and even the bizarre superstitions of hanging.
This is a great way to safely see the cemetery at night. Your friendly guides are award-winning cemetery historians Tracey Olivieri and Chris Dawson, who will be more than happy to chat with you and answer your questions during the tour.
The Folklore, Myth and Magick tour is part of the Queensland Cemetery History Tours range – Brisbane’s best and most affordable cemetery night tours.
