Enjoy historical walking tours with a side of terror? Then this is the guided haunting for you. Capitalising on the inherent creepiness of the industrial hallows of Cockatoo Island, these tours allow you to learn more about the convict, ship-building and orphanage (all excellent launch points for horror movies) past with stories about mysterious deaths, solitary confinement cells, shipwrecks and George the military ghost who floats around the upper island. The 90-minute tour is suitable for families or brave individuals, just make sure you're scare-ready, the spooky atmosphere isn't for the faint hearted.
