On Friday night, a group of us took a tour of the Fremantle Prison. The Freo Prison was built in the 1850's by convicts (like almost everything else in Au) and closed in 1991. Now they just use it for day, night, and tunnel tours. We were told that the prison is haunted so we took the Torchlight Ghost Tour. In many of my pictures you can see round "orbs" and the tour guide told us if we zoom in on these that we will see faces of ex-convicts. I zoomed in on a few of these "orbs" and I didn't see one face. Maybe 1 or 2 smiley faces, but I don't think that is what she meant. If you ask me its just the reflection from the flash caused by the lights, but what do I know? Haunted or not, we had a fun time and afterwards we went to the local brewery/restaurant "Little Creatures" for some food.
This is the front of the prison... There are a lot of orbs in this pic.

The prison's attempt at trying to scare us. I have to admit that I did scream... several times.

There were 44 (i think) people executed at the Fremantle Prison including 1 woman who poured acid down her kids throats.

A few of the cells had paintings on the walls painted by convicts...

The entire group!
When we waiting for the bus back to Currie it was pouring rain. I tried to take a picture but all it looks like is a lot of little "orbs", I zoomed in and I still don't see any faces... o well..
Hey you should see if they have laundry facilities that you could use.. :-) Theirs might actually be available. That place is creepy, I don't necessarily believe the whole "orb" story but nonetheless I'm sure you were scared... I would have been too :-)
