Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre and APPI present a FAMILY GHOST TOUR at this awesome heritage industrial building.
The Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre's family ghost tour activity provides participants with a unique opportunity for the whole family to visit the Centre after hours, explore what secrets lie within its walls, and hear stories about the building's past inhabitants.
The former life of this Art Centre – a once converted power station – holds many secrets, and some of its inhabitants have decided to call this place home – unwilling to cross over to the other side.
Come and hear about the resident ghosts as you walk through the dark corridors of the Centre searching for answers to questions which, sometimes, are best left unanswered.
Prepare to see things which will make you question reality...
If we've caught your interest (and imagination) and this sounds like your ideal night out with the family, then hurry and book yourselves in as numbers are strictly limited.
Our interactive ghost tours are run by experienced ghost hunters from Australian Paranormal Phenomenon Investigators (APPI). This will be a tour you will remember for years to come.
Our family ghost tours are also interactive and provide all children attending with (kid friendly) equipment to assist them in trying to contact any ghosts willing to make themselves known. Come if you dare...

TIME 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm
DURATION 1 hour 30 minutes

Some history of the area:
- European settlement occured around 1817, mainly by agriculturalists.
- In 1830, bushranger Jack Donohoe - "The Wild Colonial Boy", was killed in the vicinity of the location.
- Casula Railway Station opened in 1894 and has seen 108 years of tragedy.
- The Georges River has proven its ability as a silent killer time and time again.
- In the 1950s, Casula became suburbanised. A 'pocket power station' was in operation between 1952 - 1976, whilst infrastructure was established. Hear about the tragedy which occured at the venue while it was a power station.
- This area has been witness to great sadness...even the involvement of one of Australia's most notorious serial killers.

TESTIMONIALS
This is THE BEST ghost tour I have ever been on! You wouldn't think it by looking at the building, but the energy is everywhere! The tour guide, Pete was so knowledgeable, funny and has the gift of adding just the right mix of spookiness. I will be back - and I will bring my friends!

I had such a fun and interesting time on the Casula Powerhouse ghost tour! I'd never been to the Powerhouse before so it was worth visiting for the art and architecture alone, I was particularly impressed with the way the arts centre has been integrated into the original power station building, and the tour takes in areas of the building not usually open to the public. The investigators were welcoming and friendly. In addition to learning about the history of the building and it's surrounding area - as well as hearing many ghost stories - I also had some insight into what the investigators do and even had some paranormal experiences of my own.

When I went into the Artist Studio I had a feeling like I was being watched. I couldnt' take my eyes off the door, and then there was a distinct knocking on the door. Love the Casula Powerhouse, great tour! Well done APPI.
- Belinda from Glenfield
Thanks to Peet Nic and Steph for a informative and Adventurous night! Had a great time!! That place is so active it makes me very excited!!!

"I felt like someone was next to me on many occasions. I saw a figure in the theatre and felt someone next to me. The equipment was a great experience to use. Thank you, I'll be back."
- Attendee from tour on 26 May, 2012
Thanks for an awesome tour at the Casula Powerhouse tonight . Will definitely be back very soon. Very spooky and had a great time. We got a few interesting evp's the tour. In the residence we got a voice saying get out and another which we don't really know what it's saying but sounds like I don't like anybody in there. In the theatre I asked what's your name and a few seconds later we had a evp's mimicking me saying what's your name.. Also got a few other voices in the theatre just a sigh ... ;) awesome stuff...

Heard about these tours in our local paper, so decided to check it out. What a fun time! The girls from APPI really know their stuff! They make the tour informative, full of history etc, plus give suggestions on who the mysterious ghosts could be, making it nice and spooky. The venue is amazing! I've been there before, for theatre shows, but never at that time of night, with no lights on. I had a few experiences myself. In the theatre, it looked like someone was standing in the wings of the stage, but nobody was there. And in the Artists Residence, somebody pulled my hair. I will definitely go back, and attend anything else the APPI girls organise. 5 stars!

We flew from Perth to Sydney and had a special tour at the Casula Powerhouse. Nic and Peet from APPI conducted a fantastic tour filled with titbits of history about the location and peppered with ghost stories about the powerhouse plus actual experiences that people had actually had there. The night we went there were several repeat guests who had previous experiences and it was great to hear what they had seen/heard first hand. What I loved about the tour was the girls didn't just tell "ghost stories" they had done research and tried to validate the deaths and find out who the spirits were that were there. Whilst there I heard a male voice in one of the rooms off the foyer when no one was in there and we also had a door open by itself while conducting a session as well as having our K2 meters going off and the sound of a chair being dragged. We had a lovely supper at the end.It was well worth the trip and the girls made us feel very welcome.

I've been on loads of ghost tours in my 33 years of life, but never one which was run by actual paranormal investigators, who talk you through the equipment, let you play with it, AND ALSO take you around a spooky venue and tell you ghostly stories. There were no theatrics, or people dressed up in costumes, kicking a bucket in a morgue. This was raw and real. I had such a great time and the APPI people were so helpful and friendly! I would recommend this tour to anyone, and can't wait to go back again. Well done.
