1

The Hero Of Waterloo

Beneath this pub's sandstone walls, a secret tunnel swallowed unwilling souls into the night.Some say the whispers of the shanghaied can still be heard if you press your ear to the stones.And if you hear the faint sound of piano music... be warned — you may not be alone.

2

Garrison Church

Faith endures... even beyond the grave.They say a quiet figure still sits among the pews, unseen by most, listening to hymns only he can hear.If the air grows suddenly cold near the back of the church... tread softly.

3

Argyle Cut

Carved by chained hands and broken spirits, the Argyle Cut still groans under the weight of forgotten suffering.Some claim the clink of phantom chains still echoes through the tunnel at night.Listen closely... but do not linger.

4

Australian Heritage Hotel

Built atop ground soaked in violence and sorrow, the laughter inside these walls hides a deeper chill.Doors creak open without cause. Whispers slip between the cracks.And sometimes... the sound of a child's laughter rides the empty air.

5

Susannah Place Museum

These weathered terraces have sheltered countless families — and perhaps, their lingering spirits.Visitors speak of ghostly hands slipping into theirs, fleeting as mist.Look toward the dark windows... and you may glimpse what was never meant to be seen.

6

Russell Hotel

Beneath the cozy charm of The Russell lies a tale soaked in blood.Room 8 bears the imprint of a sailor’s restless spirit, his presence heavy in the night.Alone in the darkness, you might not be as alone as you think.

7

Fortune Of War

Australia's oldest surviving pub carries the memories of many... some unwilling to leave.Cold spots drift through the rooms, and ghostly figures peer from empty windows.Raise your glass — and be ready to share it.

8

Nurses Walk

Along this narrow path, agony is etched into every stone.Here, convicts and settlers gasped their last breaths, their pain bleeding into the ground.Even now, the air shivers with unseen movements — a brush of ghostly skirts, a dying whisper clawing for life.

9

Harbour Rocks Hotel

A love story, forever unfinished, lingers in the night air near Harrington Street.Some speak of a shadow pacing restlessly, searching for a lost love that death could not sever.Perhaps, if you pass by quietly enough... you’ll hear his heart still beating through the dark.

10

Reynolds' Cottages

Tragedy clings to these ancient cottages like ivy to stone.A young man’s agony... a father’s fatal fall...Their restless steps echo through the night, forever reliving their final moments.

11

The Orient Hotel

Behind its cheerful façade lies a gruesome memory.Some say the spirit of a man, torn apart by madness and sorrow, still haunts the upper floors.If you feel a gaze you cannot explain... do not look back.

12

Cadman’s Cottage

Sydney’s oldest surviving house holds more than just history.The scent of burning flesh... the whispers of a terrible crime...Even now, the dead do not sleep easily here.

Farewell

As your journey draws to a close, the streets fall quiet… but not empty. The spirits of The Rocks have shared their stories — of sorrow, mystery, and lives unfinished. Some may return to rest. Others may linger. Walk on with care… for once you’ve stepped into the shadows, they have a way of following.
