Our Favourites
Can you handle a taste of the macabre? These are the stories most Melburnians found too creepy to share.
Put a chill down your spine and a drink in your hand as we undertake (pun intended) Melbourne’s only tour blending tasty beverages with dark tales.
Following months of research combing over old articles, dusty books and long pints with strangers, this tour pairs Melbourne’s creepiest tales with some of our favourite laneway drinking spots.
From the popular market where bones are still buried just below the surface to the tale of the man many believe was Jack the Ripper, join us as we imbibe and survive a turn down Melbourne’s dark side.
