Quarantine Ghost Tours has been running after-dark storytelling tours at Manly’s historic Quarantine Station since the early 1990s. The site on North Head took in ship passengers suspected of carrying disease from 1828 to 1984, and more than 570 people are recorded as buried there. It’s regularly called Australia’s most haunted place, but the tours lean on the history and the atmosphere rather than actors jumping out of doorways. Guides tell the stories by lantern light; the buildings do the rest.
