Had a few experiences during my apprenticeship at the Hyde Park barracks in Macquarie street, Sydney where we often saw unexplained things moving in the shadows.
The old Mint and Sydney hospital were others.
Creepiest place I ever worked was East Sydney TAFE, the old Gaol.
Down in the Eastern corner (behind the famous Darlinghurst Wall) is a triangle shaped courtyard where they would hang convicts / prisoners.
Many strange noises you would hear early in the mornings, though that could have been the prostitutes working on the other side.
Underneath the gaol runs a long passageway going back to Victoria Army Barracks in case of gaol riots getting out of hand. The passage itself is a know haunt.
Ever want a good laugh just watch the movie "The Ghost Story" SBS on demand. 2 hours of watching a guy getting around with a white sheet over him. Not much dialogue typical SBS stuff.
