I have been boggo rd onces on  tour early stage i think it was back in 1997 it was very awesome i onces remember been to hang area feeling the tempture is dropping while the guy (who used to be prisoner officer)talking about how many people dead on that hang etc, than went to see the cell (it was shocking to see how small it is and the condition is very poor) while i was in cell it does the same tempture dropping i onces remember hearing the funny noise (i thought someone playing something) it was like clicking from somewhere. also went to see guard light house i cant image there was so thin and on the top of fence you will see how small it is to walk it terrifed me to think that i might fall from there (refuse to walk there) so yeah it was interesting  it was so much fun there a must.

Really? That would be terrible. Surely it is protected by Nat Trust?

It has just been closed for renovations. There were rumours that it was going to be demolished, but I don't think they were true.

Hi there,

Ok, I made some calls and Boggo Road Gaol will NOT be demolished. The new Busway wont affect the Goal nor will the 'Urban Village' that is being built. Boggo Road Goal is Heritage listed so it can't be disturbed.

I hope this dispels some fears for you peeps.

Hi everyone = )
I noticed your post on the goal and thought I may be able to help a little with the confusion.

Boggo consited of jail(1) and jail(2) ..J (1) being the newer section has been demolished but J (2) which holds the core of feeling still stands =)

Very interesting place. Depending on your sensitivity you wont even need to walk in you can not only feel it but smell it just by standing at the door.
Personally I'm not sure what the place holds but it made me ill.

Please don't let this discourage you. If you are braver than I please venture in I am curious as to how others vibrate to this place. =)

Hi Everyone, I just wanted to let you know that Jack Sim is about to launch a book about the Ghosts of Boggo Road. We are in negotiation to gain access for the night of the launch (Halloween) - there is a lot of red tape.

If you would like to stay informed keep checking on the website and express your interest in visiting the gaol. As soon as we have the go ahead it will be all over our website and out in a newsletter.

Those in Brisbane we hope to see you there.
