Spooky Singapore !

We are delighted and – very excited – by the addition of a paranormal, spiritual and personal element to some of our heritage walks with the help of our amazing psychic, Dani Van de Velde. Appropriately we launched these at Halloween 2020.

In choosing places to hold these tour experiences, we take into account the heritage value of the sites and festivals, as well as the extent of “other worldly” activity and deeper spiritual meaning. So far, we have run them in Dempsey Hill, Alexandra Park, Kampong Glam and Bukit Brown, and we now have a new Fort Canning experience lined up too.

The format varies depending on the location, theme or festival, but broadly, we explore the history of the area during the first half. This is then followed by an introductory talk on a relevant topic by Dani – for example, if we hold the tour around the time of a festival, she will explain its origins and customs and how these are evident in other global traditions, highlighting the collective nature of spiritual enquiry and expression. This is often followed by a guided experience like paranormal contact with the “other side” or a meditative ritual — always in a respectful and safe way. This part of the evening is usually accompanied by a glass or two of wine or a soft drink with some light snacks.

And we try wherever possible to schedule these tours around a Full Moon which adds an appealing layer of ambience and energy to the proceedings!

The Ghosts of Forbidden Hill Fort Canning

Come with us to discover spooky Singapore Fort Canning. The multi-layered history, mysteries and legends of this green oasis, known to the Malays as Bukit Larangan, or Forbidden Hill. It’s one of Singapore’s greatest treasures.
