Step into the supernatural

Ever wanted to communicate with the dead? A chance to do so is coming to venues across Melton and Moorabool, with a local company recently launching a series of paranormal expeditions.

Hosted by Bacchus Marsh organisation Mysteries Lost in History, the Paranormal Explorations event series invites sceptics, the believers, and the curious alike to use a range of paranormal equipment to attempt to communicate with the dead.

Upcoming events in the series include nights at the Border Inn in Bacchus Marsh on October 28, the Willows Homestead in Melton on October 31, and the Border Inn again on November 18.

According to the organisation, each venue is chosen after an initial paranormal investigation to determine if there is any supernatural activity.

Tools used include a voice recorder, spirit boxes, and a Ouija board.

Mysteries Lost in History owner Amanda Powell said that the event is intended at being factual rather than theatrical, and therefore witnessing paranormal activity is not guaranteed.

The explorations begin with a history of the venue, examples of how to use the equipment, followed by an opportunity for participants to use the equipment themselves.

There is an optional cleansing ritual offered to participants at the end of each session.

“It’s about people having their own experiences and not us giving them an experience,” Ms Powell said.

Ticket prices vary depending on the session, and further details on the times and how to purchase tickets are available on the company’s website.
