Considered Australia's most haunted house, this Victorian manor in New South Wales is plagued by tragedy. The spirit of a former owner, Mrs. Crawley, is said to haunt the premises, rarely leaving her room after her husband's death. Other reported ghosts include a stable boy burned alive, a maid pushed from a balcony, and a caretaker murdered. Visitors report disembodied voices, ghostly apparitions, sudden drops in temperature, and an overwhelming sense of dread, particularly near the staircase where a child tragically fell. Many leave feeling watched or even touched by unseen hands.
