Lovely and mysterious place. Owner Drew is lovely and customer focused. Also filled with interesting knowledge. He likes a chat with like minded souls. Very happy to have met him
I've done this tour twice now and I loved it both times. Great tour of Melbourne and some interesting stories that educate about the history of our great city. Both times Drew lead the tour and I found him to be extremely knowledgable and willing to answer all reasonable questions.
The Haunted Bookshop is a carefully curated collection by passionate historian Drew Sinton. This is not a job for him - it is his life’s work. He is unique and impressively knowledgeable. A bit of a recluse, Drew comes alive when sharing his lovely world. The Haunted Melbourne Ghost Tour is highly recommended. A life-long resident, Drew’s intimate knowledge of the city in all of its time is impressive. Drew is a charming throwback to a pre-instant world.
Excellent tour with the very knowledgeable Drew running the tour. I enjoyed learning about Melbourne's history just as much as the stories about the ghosts themselves. There was a LOT I never realised about Melbourne, despite living here for virtually my entire 36 year old life. It takes you down some laneways which is a cool way to discover some bars/restaurants you'd never have known were there otherwise! I'd definitely recommend the tour.
Our tour guide Geneva was informative and very friendly. She looked after all attendees and didn’t rush the tour at all. Geneva is a great guide and I’d recommend this activity to anyone who is looking for a great time.
