Ghost hunters capture eerie image of young girl kneeling on the floor of an asylum Medium Rayleen Kable and ghost hunter Allen Tiller travel around Australia They are on a mission to prove the existence of supernatural beings – and to help ghosts stuck in limbo ‘move onto the afterlife’ The pair make up the local contingent of the cast of Haunting: Australia. A small girl kneeling on the floor of an old mental asylum ward, the shadowy figure of a prison guard standing near a cell and a man lurking in the corner of a hotel basement. These are the spine-tingling images that have emerged from some of Australia’s most haunted destinations. Together, medium Rayleen Kable and ghost hunter Allen Tiller have travelled around Australia visiting these sites on a mission to prove the existence of supernatural beings – and to help ghosts stuck in limbo ‘move onto the afterlife’. And while most people may be sceptical that they are finding real evidence of the supernatural Tiller says that’s precisely why he does it. In January this year, Kable and Tiller led a group on a tour around Australia collecting photographs, electromagnetic readings and sound recordings of what they believe are the spirits of figures from decades past The pair make up the local contingent of the cast of TV show Haunting: Australia, which is currently being replayed on 4METV and is due to premier on SYFY in the U.S. later this month. While filming their eight-part series they visited some of Australia’s most notorious haunted sites, but they say one of the spookiest visits they ever made was to Beechworth Lunatic Asylum in north-east Victoria in January this year. A member of their tour group captured a haunting image of what appears to be a small girl kneeling on the floor in the darkness of the most notorious wing of the old mental asylum. The Grevillia wing of Beechworth was where patients were given electric shock treatments and kept in strait jackets at the institution, which was operational between 1867 and 1995. Visitors to the wing have often reported sightings of the ghost of a male doctor and also of a female matron. But Tiller said some of the female patients of Beechworth had children with them – providing an explanation as to what he believes is captured in the photograph. Tiller said he also had his own personal haunting experience while at Beechworth, in a section of the asylum known as the ‘bull pen’. ‘It used to house aggressive youths from 18 to 25, and in there I heard a door slamming, and I audibly hear footsteps go up the hallway,’ he said. ‘Then we had clear EVPs [electronic voice phenomena] of a couple of people say ‘Get out.’ Tiller – who says he is not a psychic or medium – uses a whole range of gadgets including full spectrum cameras, electromagnetic field detectors and voice recorders to gather ‘evidence’ of the spirit world. Kable – who is both a psychic and a medium – said her experience at Beechworth was ‘amazing’. ‘It’s definitely got activity and lots of it,’ she said.
