Step into the dark at Sovereign Hill and prepare to be disturbed.

By lantern light, your guide will reveal the superstitions, rituals and strange traditions that shaped life and death in the 1850s. Hear tales of ghost hoaxing and mysterious encounters above ground.

Then descend deep underground to discover the hardships, deadly accidents and the dangers people faced in search of fortune. Discover a side of the Goldfields that only comes alive after dark.

This is not about tricks, treats or carved pumpkins this is about the real, eerie history.

Meal options available. You ticket includes a complementary drink at Sovereign Hill's United States Hotel.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
