Paranormal Tours at Oak Lodge

A local paranormal team, Hobart Paranormal Group, are offering monthly Paranormal Investigation Tours at Oak Lodge. The team consisting of Stacey and Sarah (Investigators) and Aneeta (Psychic/Medium) will take you on a 2 hour investigation of the Lodge. You will experience a true paranormal investigation, be given use of equipment and explanation on what this equipment does and how to use it. Watch as they connect with the spirits of the house (as well as those who drop in just to say hello) and learn how a paranormal investigation works. You will also experience how the team try to show you what is paranormal and how they refute activity that has other explanations. You are encouraged to take an active part, ask questions and actually become an interactive member for that one evening. Between them, the team has over 20 years of experience in this field and are more than happy to answer any questions and provide explanations for anything that you don’t understand. Cost of the tour is $30 per person with a minimum age of 16 years. All money paid to attend the tour is directed back to Oak Lodge to assist with renovations of the property. For maximum benefit of the experience, tour numbers are limited to 6 per tour so only approximately 60 people per year get the opportunity to take part. Hobart Paranormal Group are the first to introduce this type of tour in Tasmania and enjoy sharing their knowledge and experience with members of the public. To make a booking for the tours, please to go Hobart Paranormal Group on Facebook to arrange your place. www.facebook.com/hobartparanormalgroup/
