The past never dies - it just hides in plain sight.

Outram bears many names. A medical hub. A colonial relic. A hill of secrets. But after dark, another name rises - Singapore's most haunted district.

This is a journey into the unseen. Through flickering corridors, winding alleyways, and pockets of vanishing history, we reveal a district haunted not just by spirits, but by memory and neglect.

We begin with tales from Spooner Road, where echoing footsteps and strange apparitions have long plagued the residents. Once railway quarters for Malayan Railways, now a near-abandoned ghost estate, it tells stories of loneliness, despair, and things that never left.

Then we walk through the old Spottiswoode neighbourhood and make our way to Pearl’s Hill where its dark history stretches back more than 200 years. 

The tour is filled with lore, history, and first hand accounts not found in books.

Basic information - Walking tour

1. This is a rain-or-shine event. We will proceed in the event of light rain. However, if the weather is deemed too dangerous to proceed, the tour will be rescheduled for another day. A refund will be provided if you are unable to make the new date. 
2. Participants must be of moderate fitness - able to walk for 2.5 hours without rest. Moderate slopes.
3. The Hosts will do their best to take care of all participants and ensure a fun and safe tour, however there may be situations that are considered acts of nature that was not pre-empted. Participants agree to not hold Supernatural Confessions and the Hosts responsible for any unforeseen mishaps.
4. This is a walking tour hosted by professional hosts who would regal you with tales of myths, legends, and lore. These are real stories told by real people, and collected personally by Eugene Tay. You will not find these stories online.
5. We will not be hunting ghosts, we will not be using paranormal devices to detect their presence. What you will get is a mind-blowing storytelling experience about a supernaturally active place many have talked about, but few have seen.

Videography

• Secondly, we don’t want to spoil the mystery by releasing these uncurated footages on the internet.
