The Asylum: Haunted House
The doctor will see you now.
Overview
Feeling poorly? A wee bit under the weather? Then strap on your straight jacket and check yourself into The Asylum. For three terrifying nights only, Ormond Hall on St Kilda Road will be transformed into a haunted house on steroids, complete with sadistic surgeons, murderous matrons and maniacs around every corner. Enter at your peril.
Visitors to The Asylum will be guided down the corridors of one of Australia’s oldest insane asylums. Tickets cost $25 (or $20 if you’re a student) and should be booked in advance, particularly if you’re planning on visiting after midnight. Dressing up is encouraged, naturally, although make sure you wear appropriate footwear — just in case you have to run for your life.
Those of you not too traumatised by the experience will be able to kick on at The Village Bar adjacent to Ormond Hall, where they’ll be serving food and Halloween cocktails long into the night.
