my friend and i went to the old penitentiary chapel in hobart on 14/05/2003 at 8pm.

At first it didnt look much from the outside but once you walk in you can feel that there is some thing there.

We went into the old court room we sat in the witness seats and we both feel like some one was push us down behind our knees, then the guide asked my friend to sit in the judges seat and then asked me but i couldnt go near it i felt like i was going to be sick.

We also went in to the tunnels. We felt like some one had push passed us we heard voices but could make out what they where sayin we went to the place where alot of people go hunged it felt strange..standing near the hangrope my friend felt faint she felt like some thing was around her neck.

W e have taken a few photos which i hope to get them soon.

The tour guide was great the stories he told of the place was great. The old building was beauitful i give it a 10 star rating.

PS: Two strange things did happen to me and my friend. Ii was sitting down outside the old execution yard talking to the tour giude and when i got up there was fresh blood. I thought it was strange i'm not due for my periods for three weeks. Anyway, my friend even saw the blood and when my hubby came and got us I went to the toliet and it had stopped. The other thing that happened was we where waiting out side the old church and we both heard footsteps walking through the grass and leaves it was not windy or any thing like that.. there was no one else around the tour guide had left to go home. So I can't explain what happened but it scared us both.
