It’s always a little surreal seeing something you’ve poured your heart into featured like this.

Thank you to What’s On Fraser Coast Magazine and editor Kim Parnell for this wonderful feature on Ghosts of Old Maryborough. It means so much to have local businesses supporting local creators.

Lantern Shadow Tours was created because I wanted to do something different—not another tour where you follow a guide with a flag, but a cinematic storytelling experience that you can enjoy whenever you’re ready. No groups. No bookings. Just you, your phone, and the stories waiting in the shadows.

If you’ve ever wondered what secrets Old Maryborough might still be hiding after dark… this is your invitation. 🏮👻

I’d love to know what you think of the article, and if you’ve already taken the tour, I’d love to hear which story stayed with you long after you got home.

Maryborough’s grand heritage buildings have watched over generations of locals, travellers, scandals, celebrations and whispered stories. But what if the streets could talk? And what if you could explore their darker history without a crowded tour group, fixed departure time or guide waving a flag...

🏮 What a wonderful morning at the Brisbane Visitor Information Centre! 🏮

A huge thank you to the amazing volunteers at the Brisbane Visitor Information Centre for welcoming Lantern Shadow Tours and taking the time to learn all about our self-guided historical and ghost tour experiences.

It was fantastic to introduce the team to our cinematic tour guides, show them how the app works, and share the stories behind why Lantern Shadow Tours was created.

The volunteers downloaded the app, received complimentary tours to experience for themselves, and hopefully discovered that exploring Brisbane’s hidden stories can be done in a whole new way — with no groups, no bookings, and the freedom to explore at your own pace.

And of course, no presentation would be complete without a few sweet treats! 🧁 The Lantern Shadow Tours cupcakes were a big hit.

Thank you once again to the Brisbane Visitor Information Centre team for your warm hospitality and for the incredible work you do helping visitors discover the very best of Brisbane every single day.

We look forward to working together to help even more visitors uncover Brisbane’s hidden stories. 👻📖✨

Last night we had the absolute pleasure of sponsoring Clothes Swap 4 Charity 2026 — an incredible night supporting the Fraser Coast Women’s Refuge. 🖤

And honestly… seeing someone win our Lantern Shadow Tours “Ghost Hunting Starter Kit” raffle made the whole night even more special. 👻🕯️

The prize pack included:
✨ A complimentary Haunted Highways self-drive tour
✨ A lantern for exploring after dark
✨ EMF reader
✨ Digital voice recorder
✨ Mini torches
✨ And a few eerie little surprises…

We created the raffle to feel like the beginning of an adventure — because that’s exactly what Lantern Shadow Tours is about.

Not crowded tour groups.
Not awkward bookings.
Not standing around listening to a guide with 40 strangers.

Just you… your phone… and the dark stories waiting around the next corner.

Thank you to everyone who came over to chat, scanned the QR codes, entered the raffle, and shared spooky stories with us throughout the night. The support genuinely meant so much.

And congratulations again to our raffle winner — your ghost hunting era has officially begun. 👀
