Ghost Hunting.

Firstly:
-Davo wishes to thank Oz, and Toskin, and anyother mod involved in the un-banning of me. They didn't have to do it. I just wanted to know why I was banned, and they couldn't find a real reason so they un-banned me. :bigthumb:

Secondly (and finally) after a pub run, me and a mater are going ghost hunting. Woo! I've been a few times before, but not on the booze.

About the hunt: Far south of sydney, is a country town called "Picton". It's a fairly old place, and it's haunted like hell (no pun intended). There is an old, abandoned train tunnel in the mountain side at Picton, so old the train tracks have been ripped up. In 1916, a lady named Emily was taking a short cut through the tunnel (as you do) and a train hit her, and she was killed instantly. It is said now, that her ghost haunts the tunnel.
So me and some mates went to the tunnel on April 17th, we didn't see any ghosts or what ever, but we got really , really scared, and took a lot of pics...
I posted the following pics on another forum:



Pic 1: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Inside_Tunnel_1.jpg
This is the picture where I saw a face of dust. You can still almost see it. It's right of the car, and just left of the first painting on the wall. It looks like an old man. On the camera, the face is scaringly detailed and he's wearing a crown.

Pic 2: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Inside_Tunnel_2.jpg
Just a view inside the tunnel with the car. After about the 3rd time we walked to the (but not in the) tunnel. In his pic, i'm about 1/3 the way there.

Pic 3: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Inside_Tunnel_15.jpg
Strange Graffiti on the walls. Not a relaxing feeling at 1am.

Pic 4: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Path_To_Tunnel_1.jpg
This is the path to the tunnel, just around this corner is the entrance

Pic 5: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Path_To_Tunnel_2.jpg
OK,. maybe around THIS corner...

Pic 6: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Tunnel_Entrance_1.jpg
And here it is. We were the only people there at this time, and The only light we had was my dad's 2.5 million candel power light.

Pic 7: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Tunnel_Entrance_2.jpg
More entrance


The next pic, when taken, scared the shit out of us:
Pic 8: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Weird_Lights_In_Tunnel_1.jpg
Story: We got to the entrance, and I shone the light at the entrance for a few seconds, then my drummer, Josh, took a pic of the entrance (as seen here) at the exact moment, these car headlights came on. We thought it was the cops, and I've never, ever, ran so fast in my life.

Pic 9: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Weird_Lights_In_Tunnel_2.jpg
This is a car in the tunnel, this is why the ghost didn't come out.

Pic 10: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Weird_Lights_In_Tunnel_4.jpg
OK, this one is weird. Josh took a picture of the entrance with no other source of light, pitch black, and then this pic came out with a blue haze over the top of it. This is the pic i was talking about earlyer to nicklz, very freaky, weird shit.

Pic 11: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Weird_Noose_Thing_1.jpg
On the way to the tunnel, we found this thing. We picked it up and it remained intact, and in shape.

And last, but not least:
Pic 12: http://img59.photobucket.com/albums/v180/-Davo/Picton%20Tunnel/Dave_Light_1.jpg
This pic is me, standing in the dark with my dad's light shining on me...I dunno why we took it, i done it before quickly and josh thought it looked freaky, mainly because of the atmosphere of the whole night.



Anyway, there was 6 of us that night, then Josh (drummer), Alby (andrew - singer) and My self, went down again a few weeks later, we got scared like hell, walked around the cemetary there. Then a few weeks later, Josh, a few of his mates, and my self went down again, got scared shitless, saw some weird lights in the tunnel, went home. Then 2 weeks ago, on a friday night, I went again with some mates who haven't been before, we saw some really weird lights moving up and down the tunnel (they can't be human, they were travelling over 500 ft in a matter of seconds, and floating in mid air, like bright tennis balls) it was freaky as, but no-one had a camera.

So tonight, it's just Mat and I going down around 10pm, after a pub run, so that'll be fun. I'll let you know how it goes...

Anyone here believe in the "supernatural" I'm a skeptical my self.


*ED* i'll tell you more about this supposed 'haunted tunnel'.
You're suppose to be chased out by a ghost. Apparently, this ghost appears in the middle of the tunnel and starts chasing you 50m down the road. There is also a dark figure ghost there with a white outline, who runs around waving it's hands in the air and runs up and down the tunnel. Also those weird lights i told you about earlyer, not sure what they are. There also has been reports of the ghosts 'touching' people in the tunnel, taking beanies/hats off, poking etc. And there was numerous sighting of a little girl who appears behind you (really, scary stuff) and just stands there, and when you turn around and look at her, she starts to fade away and dissapear, haha.
I keep going cause it's a really nice drive (about 40 minutes), and cause I'm determined to see these ghosts. I doubt I will, and I highly doubt they even exist, that people are just B-Sing.

My only experience of Picton is slowing down to 110km/h on the freeway past the coppers then booting it back up to 160. :lol:

There's a tunnel kind of like that about 10 min from my apartment, but it's out of comission and all old looking like that one. No way in hell would I go looking for ghosts though, just might find one..

THis may sound pathetic, If i was in Daves position i'd arm myself with my gas airsoft Beretta, i feel safer with it :icon16: . Its pathetic cuz the BBs would just go right through if i saw a ghost, yet if it was just sumone makin noise id shoot the shit outta them.

Your story makes me wanna go to Australia more, always wanted to go, for a Land Rover Challenge when i get older.

*INSERT EERIE MUSIC HERE*
In 1989, a New Jersey man named Anthony Delriccio was feeding his pet ferret in the nude (as people do) when it lunged at his pecker thinking it was a snake. Anthony bled to death. It's said the hovering specter of his shredded meatstick still haunts his IROC Z...creepy, no?

I don't believe or disbelieve mainly 'cauyse I've never seen one and I ahven't tried too much, just basically goin' to cemetaries late at night but those are boring. A ghost haunts where it dies right? They wouldn't haunt a cemetary...

Notmany of my friends ever want to go though, they're too scared.

06-08-2004, 08:33 PM
I would like to know, if they can walk through you and walls and things, how can they pick things up to throw?

Damien
06-08-2004, 08:35 PM
^Haven't you ever seen the movie GHOST? If they concentrate enough, they can move objects...

zebrathree

I don't watch that girly shit.

Damien
06-08-2004, 08:39 PM
well idk, that's what the movie said...

:rolleyes:

zebrathree
06-08-2004, 08:41 PM
Well what about on Ghostbusters? They can make things move, but they can't get out of the Ghost Pen. I think Hollywood has a lot to answer for!

Damien
06-08-2004, 08:47 PM
^Oh my...the pen? The lock thing where in the 1st one it's opened? There' powers at work there, the same in which they trapped the ghosts! Duh...

:screwy:

zebrathree
06-08-2004, 08:49 PM
Powers at work?

WTF?

Doesn't Igon do some monster physics which manages to keep the ghosts in there?

Dumb fuck.



?? Who me? Or the chick?


i dont c the old man with the hat!! someone circle it!!

That's because for some reason, it dissapeared.

When we took the pic, 2 human like figures appeared on the Digital Camera. One was in the distance, someone standing, it was hard to see, but it was there. The 2nd was more scary, it was a highly detailed face on an old man, wearing a crown. You could see his eyes, mouth, nose, facial features such as wrinkles, eye brows, and even could tell him age. When we processed the picture to the computer, the face dissapeared and you couldn't see it.


Hey Dave, I used 'Toksin' as a correction to my mistake in the 1st post :)
It'll be Dave from now on.
Dave :D


Anyway, about last night. It was definatly weird last night.
We had another mate tag along.
We got to the tunnel entrance, and Mat and Shane start freekin' out thinking they can see something bright moving in the tunnel (I couldn't see anything). So they chickened out, and we left for the time. Then Mat said he wanted to drive through, so we debated it, then he decided he wants to go through, but doesn't want to drive. So I drove through, and we turned around at the end, and I drove into the middle of the tunnel, and turned all the lights out. Then Mat and Shane claim they saw a white flame move very fast up and down the roof of the tunnel (this is a popular claim, my drummer Josh saw the same thing) so we moved, then we did it again, this time I wanted to see it. We were sitting it pitch blackness in the middle of a tunnel for a good 2 minutes, I had my window down, and I was looking out.
The only thing I saw, was it looked like the end of the tunnel was moving around. As the skeptical I am, I think it was my eyes trying to adjust to the no light, and trying to process the light at the end of the tunnel, not to mention my blind spot in my eye.
Still, nothing dramatic.

I'm going down again in a few weeks time because I want to walk through it. I'm too chicken Sh*t to do it my self (haha) so me and Josh are gunna do it.

I wanna go :(

zebrathree
06-09-2004, 07:28 AM
I meant the chick.

Heres an old trick. When trying to look at light at night, use your preprephial vision, don't look directly at the light.

-Davo
06-09-2004, 07:34 AM
Yeah, i do that.

The tunnel is like 500ft long, and you can see light at the other side, it's just light from the moon, it's very, very small and faint, and if you look at it, you lose half your vision

Hey Pickel, where u from?

Your logic escapes me.

Why does NZ suck? I can guarantee that once you've lived overseas you'll wonder why you hated this place so much.

Awww, to be in Italy again.....

Damien
06-09-2004, 10:08 PM
Well, technically no one can see a ghost unless they want you to so, meh...

But ya know what pickle, if I was in NZ, I'd go ghost huntin' with you and not be a dickhead and make it...uh...not borin'. :D

pickle
06-09-2004, 10:52 PM
Awww that's so nice. We can be ghost hunting buddies. Rhys and David probably scared them all out of NZ though :(

WHAT THE???

I walk talking to a mate of mine who we often go the the picton tunnel with, and me and him went on tuesday, he gave me that site!

Go to 'Australia', then 'New South Wales - Picton - Picton Tunnels' That's where I went

Go the the very bottom of the NSW ones, the quarentine station,
"New South Wales - Sydney - Quarantine Station - People who visit the now empty Quarantine Station are often pushed by people who are not there. They are even pushed to the floor during the middle of the day!"

I'm going there in a few weeks time for a sleep over (they do sleep overs) we might be doing an illegal one.

Now go to the very last section on the bottom, about the Wombarra Cemetary, that's almost on the way to Picton tunnel, so we're gunna check that out next time.


Pickle, If you can get over here, I'll take you for a tour! (First stop, the pub!)
