Hallozween is Australia’s home for Halloween culture, paranormal investigation, dark tourism and all things deliciously creepy.
From the history of Halloween in Australia to real-world ghost hunts, filming locations, and immersive events, we explore the darker side of curiosity — thoughtfully, respectfully and with just a little hint of mischief.
So when did Halloween first arrive in Australia — and why does it matter?
Halloween has a long, layered history here that stretches well beyond modern pop culture. We explore where it came from, how it evolved locally, and why it’s never been “just an American thing”.

Exploring what lies beyond
At Hallozween, we don’t just write about the paranormal — we actively investigate it.
We attend ghost hunts and paranormal investigations across Australia and overseas, working alongside experienced investigators and respected experts in the field.
Their work is featured here on the website and in the Hallozween Magazine.
