Ep. 535 - Berrima Courthouse and Haunts

The Berrima Courthouse in the beautiful Southern Highlands of New South Wales in Australia is a great example of colonial architecture. The courthouse was a necessity as the colony was built on convicts and many continued their wayward deeds. The village of Berrima itself was an important stop on the path from Sydney to Victoria and there were several hotels in the area. Many historic structures still remain and spirits just may be inhabiting them, including the ghost of Australia's first serial killer. Join us as we explore the history and haunts of Berrima, Australia! The Moment in Oddity features the Crawfordsville Monster and This Month in History features the birth of Edward Everett. Our location was suggested by Julie Barton.
