<h2>Beechworth Asylum, Beechworth, VIC</h2>

<h2>Jenolan Caves, Blue Mountains, NSW</h2>
<p>You can argue that all caves are spooky, but not all caves have their own resident ghost. A guide who works in the caves recalls an old man in a suit telling once him an unknown fact about a button in the reflective pools – when he tried to find the man afterwards; there was no sign of him. Legend has it that the man could very well be James Wiburd, a caretaker of the caves who loved them so much that he requested his ashes be scattered there.<b><br /></b> <b>BRAVE ENOUGH? </b>Book yourself in <a href=https://www.jenolancaves.org.au/buy-cave-tour-tickets/ target=_blank rel=noopener>for a guided tour</a> that will take you through the spooky underground labyrinth.</p>"]https://content.api.news/v3/images/bin/746d00ed71e6e2aeb39a77097faa481e[/IMG]

<h2>Redbank Tunnel, Picton, NSW</h2>
<p>Despite its small town charm, Picton has been dubbed Australia’s most haunted town. In 1916 a young woman by the name of Emily Bollard was walking through the town’s Redbank Tunnel when she was hit and killed by a train. Whether her death was intentional or accidental, over the years, local residents and tourists have reported seeing a white flowing figure of a woman who has no face within the tunnel. In case that isn’t spooky enough, there have also been reports of lights floating above people’s heads, sudden drops in temperature, and ghostly children appearing out of the darkness. <b><br /></b> <b>BRAVE ENOUGH?</b> You can <a href=https://goo.gl/maps/NGxcWDTSF7poMyRG7 target=_blank rel=noopener>visit the tunnel</a>, but it can only be viewed from the outside to ensure visitors safety.</p>"]https://content.api.news/v3/images/bin/22e471ceced8ea0562277115b1f55d01[/IMG]
