Event Description

Join us for an evening of ghostly tales about one of Melton's most recognisable historic buildings.

Built in 1872, the Eynesbury Homestead was home to the Staughtons, one of Melton's pioneering families. Once the scene of lavish parties and elegant engagements, the Homestead was also the site of betrayal, murder and, some say, paranormal activity.

Joined by an expert from Lantern Ghost Tours, you’ll hear first-hand accounts of the many hauntings and investigations that have taken place over the years. Discover the secrets of the Homestead, from the haunted lake to the servant's quarters.
