Waverley Cemetery - Sydney NSW
The Waverley Cemetery is a heritage-listed cemetery on top of the cliffs at Bronte in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Opened in 1877 and built by R. Watkins (cemetery lodge, 1878) and P. Beddie (cemetery office, 1915), the cemetery is noted for its largely intact Victorian and Edwardian monuments. It is regularly cited as being one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world. The cemetery contains the graves of many significant Australians including the poet Henry Lawson.

🌟 How Cessnock Got Its Name 🌟

Ever wonder where the name Cessnock comes from? 🔍
Back 200 years ago, Scottish brothers John and David Campbell were granted 2,560 acres. John named his estate 'Cessnock' after Cessnock Castle in Ayrshire, Scotland, which belonged to his grandfather's baronial estate. The 1826 land grant became the seed from which today’s bustling CBD grew.

From Estate to Village 🏘️

A modest settlement sprouted around the intersection of Vincent Street & Wollombi Road and the banks of Black Creek, featuring:

🔨 The Blacksmith – now the School of Arts site
🚓 Police lockup – near today’s Court House
👮‍♂️ Police station
🍺 The Cessnock Inn – today’s beloved Cessnock Hotel.

This village was eventually called Cessnock after the earliest estate in the (now) Cessnock CBD area.

We have slept over at Lizzie Borden's and when the tours were finally over we got to decend into the basement for a little while. Turned out to be very interesting down there.

The last night of our Salem Haunted Holiday was spent at Lizzie Bordens house. After midnight, we were allowed down into the basement!

Travelled with Anne to Sydney to stay overnight meeting up with our friend Su from Queensland. We are staying at the Woolstore 1888 at Darling Harbour.

I had to see if there were any stories of it being Haunted.

Here is what I found:
While Hotel Woolstore 1888 isn't widely known as a haunted hotspot, there was one publicized incident where a guest reported feeling a paranormal presence, leading the hotel staff to take serious action, including burning sage and calling a priest, showing they address unusual experiences seriously.

Key Details:
The Incident: A guest felt they weren't alone in their room, reporting a paranormal presence.

Hotel's Response: The hotel, part of the Ovolo group, responded by performing a cleansing ritual (burning sage) and involving a priest, demonstrating a unique approach to guest feedback.

Building History: The building itself has historical significance as a former wool store, adding to its character, though prior ghost reports weren't common.

So, while it's not a famous haunted hotel, there's at least one documented case of a paranormal-like experience and the hotel's unusual response to it.
