Im back again visiting from Brisbane and caught the light rail to Jubilee Park as I thought this looked like a fun multi. I found all of the information at both locations, though someone was sleeping under the plaques at the second.At gz, I looked all around at about chest height but didnt find the cache. I knew I was at the right spot after looking at photos and found a muddy hole but after digging around in it, mud was all I found. Hopefully its somewhere tucked away.
Im afraid to say that this spooky hide has come to her messy end. Ill archive her now and hope she doesnt haunt GZ in the future.
Chuckys litte sister is looking a bit worse for wear. I found her swimming in sludge. A litte Maitaince was given and informed ComO that more maintenance is needed. TFTC The bebes
I have been working on this one over a few weeks during lunch breaks when I am in the area unfourtunatley cannot open to sign TFTC
I found it but couldn’t open it. It was very muddy and grose. The cache came from the camo when I was trying open it
TFTF! Loved this one , my first multi . Was a bit slimy so did not open the cache, pic for evidence

A nice multi with some scary background information. As I approached GZ, I admired the curved viaduct which reminded my of railway bridges found in the Alps.
At GZ I circled around the object until I noticed something staring at me. Sticking my hand into some black mud I retrieved the cache. I do not know if it was because of the mud on my hands, but I failed to open the bison, so I took a photo instead.
After replacing it was time to get back to the office.

My first multi! It was a lot of fun! I definitely walked passed wp1 a few times but once I figured that one out I was on my way. Such a shame I couldn’t sign the log, it was wet and I tried for ages trying to get it open. Really loved this hide, thanks ◡̈
So daughter has been working down in Sydney for a while and she hasn't gotten a bit lonely. So what do we do..head to Sydney for a week, and definitely some caching.
Actually spending time with daughter today.
Nice quick find. TFTC

oh please let that be the cache

#263 Yikes that's a crazy history for an innocent looking park like this. At WP1 there was a clear gap in the fence to the "Street with no name" which looked very tempting to check out... but wiser thoughts prevailed. TFTC
TFTC from the Kayakviking!
Enjoyed gathering the bits and watching some of the local sport. A quick headless find and off to lunch at Tram Sheds

Found on a bleak, showery day - befitting the haunted theme. So many places to search at GZ but eventually had CIH. TFTC. Here’s a photo of a suitably grisly victim in the vicinity.
Did all the leg work and came up with a GZ a few years back. Got called away and didnt find her. Back today and it was a quick spooky find. TFTC!
i'm not very good at multis and did this one in stages. GZ is magnificent and all i wanted to do at WPs 1 and 2 was explore. the logsheet is a little slimy so i took a pic instead. tftc, been a long time between most haunted finds for me.
After Covid caused the repeated cancellation of a family trip to Canberra, we had some flight credits banked that were soon to expire. So to use them I booked a trip to Sydney with my wife, for an extended weekend getaway from Brisbane, and some caching thrown in to the mix.
This was our third day in town. I had the best of intentions of heading out for a Park Run this morning but the idea of a sleep-in won out over fitness in the end. After a short detour to an earth cache in a nearby suburb, we headed back this way to reward my muggle wife for indulging my geocaching this morning with breakfast at the nearby Tram Sheds. But first, another slight diversion to look for this cache. I had found some helpful information online regarding the subject of this cache and was able to calculate the final location prior to heading away for our trip. Today it was a short search at GZ and the cache was quickly located safe and well. TFTC

Trying to catch up with some late logs, prior to the Mega, so some travel bugs can get dropped off. Sorry for the generic log.
Found this hide while staying around the area. This was one we have been working on the last few visits, so nice to finally make this find.
Thanks The Bebes for placing this cache and doing the maintenance, so we can enjoy finding it.

Really cool little multi, loved the story behind it too. Well done and creepy hide. Tftc and a fave from me
Been wanting to do this for awhile, so glad we have now done this, interesting location snd fun camo. Fav point from us TFTM
Spotted this multi whilst in the city for the weekend and decided to give it a go with some free time up my sleeve!
WP1 was pretty spooky, would have loved to explore the closed road further but the large gate and sign prevented that! Crossed the train tracks and marvelled at the interesting station and the awesome tunnel! Pretty incredible to think about the train passing under this built up part of Sydney!
WP2 was then solved and a short walk to the final cache where I started the search. Spend about 10 minutes looking for the well hidden cache, dozens of spots to check made it a bit harder! Uncovered it eventually however! Very fitting container for the final

If I couldn’t do this at night (as I had on another in the series) then the grey skies and light drizzle would have to do creating a haunting atmosphere. The inclement weather did however provide easy parking and a muggle free stroll while collecting the clues, finding and signing the appropriately camo’d cache.
In the area with a muggle buddy for brunch. In the rain, we decided to give this one a go.
Would have been very spooky to do at night.
Good fun.
Cache and cache guardian were found on the ground at GZ. Log sheet was dry and in good condition.
Tucked it away into a hidey hole to sort of fit the hint.
Tftc!

Thanks so much to the Bebes,for an interesting multi. I have to admit that I came in bright daylight ... that first WP does look potentially spooky!
Signed in quickly and now moving on!
Signed in quickly and now moving on!
We'd been here a couple of weeks ago, grabbed some numbers, did the sums and then found everything but the log. At least it confirmed the calculations, some of which had a slight twist. Thankfully, The Bebes swung over and retrieved the missing part in the meantime. A quick visit to sign today. Spooky stories and nice theming, worth a fave. Thanks The Bebes,
Great site and multi, and great hiding place.
Sort of enjoyed the story too!

Nice day for a walk around the park and looking for the answers for this cache. Once we located GZ, I was a little scared of spiders but we soon came up with the goods without much drama! TFTC
I am in town visiting my daughter and came by today after n the way to pick her up. I really enjoyed the short walk. Very spooky but nice multi and hide.
Thanks for hiding and maintaining this cache The Bebes

Thought I’d have a go on this one after the gym. Was a little worried about time as the sun was setting soon but eventually got all the info needed for a quick search. Did a full rotation of GZ and many spiders were found before I was worthy enough for the cache to reveal itself. Cheers
excellent multi. we had fun completing the clues and almost missed the final prize. cheers Eddie.

OCW Calypso62 today riding our bikes around the city.
We were in the area and headed to GZ to try and revenge the DNF on this one.
We knew the area where we had to look and C62 found it straight away.
So much easier to find when it is there.

Woohoo!!!!!!!!
DNF avenged!!!!!
I was out on a bike riding maintenance and caching run with Rama497. After completing all the maintenance I wanted to do, we headed to this area to find some caches and, of course, avenge this DNF from the 31st October last year. This time, I walked straight up and found the "scary" cache.
This was a most enjoyable multi to do so adding my Favourite Point to your tally.
Thanks for the geofun Skitzones.

On a rainy Sunday we went to do some essential shopping at IKEA. We stopped by this cache to revenge last week's DNF. Having had some hints from the CO, we knew where we should look, but even so, it took a while before we had the cache in hand.
Cache check today......little spooky cache is nicely tucked away in her hidey hole.
Solved the first WP, and then found the second one. Thought we solved the second one too, and walked up to the possible location.
Searched 'everywhere' but only came up with a couple of empty beer bottles and an old beer can squeezed into a whole where it had been grown stuck.

No luck finding this spooky one for us on Halloween. I wonder who scared the ghosties away??
Not to worry. I enjoyed the hunt but I especially enjoyed the catchup for a coffee and chat with the CO earlier. Now we know where it should be, we'll be back for another go.

OCW Calypos62 on our e-bikes today.
We thought we would travel around this area as we have not been here for caching before.
Collected all the information at WP1 and WP2.
Did the sums and went to GZ.
After searching and searching, C62 used his magic PAF.
We were told we where in the right area and it should be there.
Unfortunately a 2nd DNF for the day.
Next time we are in the area we will take a look.

To help stop the spread of Covid-19, the NSW Government has ordered everybody to stay at home unless you are: shopping for essentials, receiving medical care, exercising or travelling to work or education.
While some people would regard going geocaching as a form of exercise, it is my personal opinion that this activity is a non-essential one, perhaps involving unnecessary travel and therefore should not be undertaken during this time of crisis.
Using one of the above four reasons to leave home then tagging on a Geocache find whilst out is not in the spirit of the "Stay At Home" orders.
Who knows how long this current lockdown will last! Right now, every one of us has an important part to play in helping to keep our families, friends and the wider community safe in the fight against the spread of Covid-19, by staying home.
As a result of the health authority’s directive, I have decided to disable this cache and respectfully request that no person seek out and claim a find whilst this cache is disabled.

Finally got it! Thanks to the latest finders for giving me hope! No pen though, but a photo will do! A closer use of the GPS helped me out.
Wow after a year of searching, returning many times to look for this geocache we finally succeeded with clues from The Babes we headed off to do another search, as we walked up to the correct coordinates we saw another geocacher the lovely suedan83 looking as well when Dan looked on the floor and saw the geocache, we then returned the geocache to correct position with the help from the babes clues.
was super excited to finally put a on this one, really enjoyed the Haunted series.

We had a search for this early today and failed. Did we have the coords wrong? Was the cache missing? Or did we just fail to see it? Most likely the last one.
After a 10km walk around Glebe, we returned to here on our way to the light rail, for one last look. Eventually, we decided to look on the ground and suddenly sssaaaaaww it. Scared us. At the same time, we were joined by a group of other cachers. We all SL and then worked out where the cache should have been placed. The cache should now be snug in its correct hiding hole. A very good multi. A little challenging and short distances involved. TFTC The Bebes. A FP.

Made it to the end (we're certain!), couldn't find the cache. It hasn't been found in a while either....
Found today at lunch after finding the waypoints on an earlier outing. On the last visit I initially stuffed up my calculations and end up about 300m from GZ. Today I made a quick and spooky find. TFTC.
The Bebes I found your cache Sydney's Most Haunted - Jubilee Park on 11/3/21, 12:55 pm. This is my find 2967 and find # 8 today. Found all the information required and made the calculations. At GZ I went around in circles quite a number of times before I spotted the cheeky cache. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
Haha good Cache for the theme.
The one trick question on WP2 had me for a little while I looked up and down and around where could it be is there one, no there isn’t.

Found this one whilst working my way through the heaps of caches in Glebe. It’s a nice sunny day, Gladly as I could see this being a very creepy experience in the dark. Thought for a moment WP1 had no numbers until I looked closer. On to WP2 and made light work of the info here. At Gz round and round and round and “did something just touch my leg” and round and round and “WHAT IS THAT?!” TFTC FP
Pretty sure we were in the right place, but after looking for a while we still couldn't find it. Will definitely be back when possible!
After returning to search for this one (and after nearly giving up a few times!), we finally had the cache in hand! Glad to tick it off the list! TFTC
This cache is owned by my wife and I hadn’t got it previously. As it had a couple of DNFs we thought we would kill two birds with one stone. I could try out the cache and she could then obviously check if it was there. I collected all of the relevant numbers and made the calculations. Final was an obvious spot on the map and a short walk had me checking around GZ. Took me a few minutes as lots of potential spots but then I spotted it. The CO advised it was in the correct location having been placed back by a previous finder who found it on the floor. Tftc
No luck for me, not really sure I even had the right coords, as I wasn't sure what the green colour outlet covers were or where to find them.. I couldn't see anything green except posts.
I took a guess and went off in the wrong the direction, my guess was wrong so had to rethink what the poles were and those covers. Eventually ended up somewhere else which I assumed was correct , but I couldn't find anything at the height mentioned, then read the last finder found it on the ground and replaced it in a suitable spot.... well what does that mean and who knows where this person put it as there was no further description. I gave up and left.

Found with Anominous Sign on Sunday 20/09/2020. There was a some sort of game going on, so it was packed with people, but luckily we still managed to gather what we needed. TFTC
Pretty busy park here with the sports happening in the field. That didn't impede our info gathering and fortunately GZ was out of the way. Found the cache on the ground, so replaced it in a suitable spot. I lived a while nearby on Victoria Road and had no idea about the history involved here. Thanks for the lesson and the cache!
This was a great cache. Unambiguous, interesting history and cool cache at the end. A favourite for me TFTC
No ghosts here tonight but very chilly. Eas y to calculate the co-ordinate for all WPs. Nice hide spot for cache. Found with Chippyddd. SL TFReplaced cache as found ready for the next adventurer.
Found ICW Mystic Seer and my trusty Geobunny. Moon flood lite night, an ideal time to check out a ghostly night cache. TFTC TFTH SL. Thanks, The Bebes for this cache. Replaced in same location for next adventurers.
Our first multi-cache! Had some trouble with the maths (we were 400 seconds off) and spent 30 mins walking around. TFTC
Cache in good shape. Gave me a pretty good fright. I saw the back of the creepy doll head and it looked like the bulbous abdomen of a large spider. I gently poked it with a stick, quite happy to put a blue sad face on this one if a tarantula dropped, but there it was.! Cache in great shape - thanks for the history lesson!
Was passing today on the way to lunch so stopped in to see if this spooky cache was still ready to haunt you.....and YES, still in place
Definitely a spooky find even on a sunny Friday afternoon. Who knew this park was surrounded by so much violent history?! SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
Sunday morning during the cricket season is obviously not the best time to attempt this one. Completed WP1 and made my way to the next one, however decided to save this one for another day given the location of WP2 and all the activity going on there.
#6787 (4 of 4 today)
Headed out to Glebe / Camperdown around midday to up my cache finds for this calendar day. I was initially going to stop at three, but then I spotted a multi nearby and, well...
Got all four I went for, and was home in time for afternoon tea!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Not a peep out of anything supernatural here today - unless you count the girl dressed as a Goth near the Tramshed...
At the published coordinates the numbers were crunched and the waypoint pinpointed.
Once there I collected the required info despite the cricket match in progress - complete with a few spectators. Can I say that the batting team wasn't very inpressive - they lost three wickets while I was there.
The calculated coordinates for GZ seemed logical, so headed there and started the search. Managed to get the right spot surprisingly quickly, so made the grab and... Oh cute!
Completed signing duties and replaced. Then the walk back to *The Hademobile*.
So **The Bebes** places a cache involving at least five murders! **PelDroedGwin** if you're reading this I'd watch your back! I enjoy True Crime TV and one of my favourites is "Deadly Women", which focuses solely on killers of the female kind. Quite a few enjoy poison... [xx(]
Gets a favourite for the history and the surprise at GZ. Even if the supernatural was on holidays today.

3rd time lucky. This teaches me to actually read the clues and not assume anything.
My first"GZ" had me about 100m away, looking here and there, obviously with no success.
Thanks for this cache.

This one had me going around in circles in the wrong spot but with a slight similarity to the actual GZ. Only realised my basic error of not actually changing WP2 to the new coords doh when I checked in with The Bebes and received a thumbs up on the numbers. So tonight I hit the correct GZ started what could have been an epic hunt but soon spotted a signal which came up with the spooky cache. TFTC The Bebes, you are the master of fun cache. #865
Today we headed over to the Inner West, taking advantage of the cheap Sunday $2.80 per head capped Opal Card fares, to have a look at some new cache placements that have appeared around the suburbs of Glebe, Harold Park, Forest Lodge, Annandale, and Rozelle since our last visit to the area. Utilised Bus/Train/Tram on the way over, and Tram/Train/Ferry/Bus on the way back home. This was the 1st of 7 finds for the day.
After hopping off the Tram at Jubilee Tram-stop we walked the short distance over to WP1 of this new spooky MultiCache, which seemed most appropriate with Halloween having only been a few days ago. Quickly located the required information and, after a few computations, we were off to WP2.
Took us longer than expected to find all of the required info at WP2 due to a large group of muggles (no not ghosts, but it would have been helpful if they were ghosts so we could see through them ) that had taken up residence right where we needed to be looking for and counting certain "features", but we managed it in the end and eventually had all of the info we needed. And with a few more computations we were off to final GZ.
Arrived at final GZ where we soon uncovered the nicely themed cache container. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC The Bebes, and you can have a Favourite Point for your hauntingly good efforts.

So cool and some degree of trickyness. Parked up and proceeded to the first waypoint in which I was here for some time before wandering over to the next waypoint.
Grabbed all the info here and a short walk to GZ at where I spied the spooky hide, thanks The Bebes

After having a shocker last week, and co confirming numbers were there. Quick search and find.
Thanks for the cache
Thanks for the cache
we are new to this so the multi was hard work, well worth it though with a perfect halloween-week fright! thanks for the cache, loved it!
We worked out all the cords and took a bit to find. Round and round we went till one of us saw something looking at her.
Out with the family looking and looking at night many spiders when bedlam2 screamed got it
Can out tonight to do this one with the tribe. Numbers at but hard to get. Soon a at set of cords that looked good. Off to GZ and round and round we went. Got it.
This was great did the puzzle went to gz took a while all 6 of us looking finally there was a yell got it great hide
Caching by public transport - bus, train and light rail to get here then it was walking around Glebe grabbing some caches along the way and visiting an art gallery on the way to Glebe Light Rail station for the homeward journey.
It was good to start with this one near the station.
I've been here lots of times before and I always marvel at how green and lush everything looks here.
Reading the cache info at home gave me the creeps but nothing round here felt strange. The waypoints and info were quickly located then it was off to GZ where I could see there would be a myriad of hiding places but I was lucky and found the cache in the first spot I checked.
I really liked the path and hedge going down to the oval with all the spring flowers out in force. There's also some amazing old trees here too, one splendid one and one that's been severely butchered but still stands, maybe that's for the birds.

Out caching with oldmorty on a very warm morning.
Found a car park very close to WP1 and wandered down to the “Street with No Name” to find required information.
Quick calculation, and a short walk to WP2.
After noting information from the plaques, I sat on one of the wooden bench/steps, while oldmorty walked around gathering all other information.
Another quick calculation and we found ourselves at GZ. (This reminded us of a Whereigo at Moore Park).
Cache found - now off to lunch.

After noting information from the plaques, I sat on one of the wooden bench/steps, while oldmorty walked around gathering all other information.
Another quick calculation and we found ourselves at GZ. (This reminded us of a Whereigo at Moore Park).
Cache found - now off to lunch.

On a beautiful warm sunny spring day frazeydaze and I decided to drive over and visit the latest offerings from the CO. After visiting the Callan Park cache we made our way to wp1 and soon found the required info and headed off to wp2 to do some more calculating before walking the short distance to gz. Soon after it was CIH. We enjoyed this little multi and the history surrounding it and I'm awarding a FP. Loved the viaduct in the distance. TFTC The Bebes and now it's time for a pulled lamb burger and beer at the Butcher and Farmer. Cheers.
A lovely Multi until the hide that had me going round and round until I spotted it.

New caches were pretty few and far between when I was living in Brisbane, so I eyed up some new ones to find in my local Sydney area when I moved back.
I still needed an October find for my Jasmer Grid, and this was the nearest. Gotta admit, I don't bite into the "spooky stories", so came here purely for the cache find. This was solved on the 6th when I was making the most of reduced transport cost on the Sunday. Unfortunately there was a guitar player sitting under the final location, so I did some shopping in the Tramsheds instead.
I returned today with Talia (of Monkeh!) for a search at the final location. Thought we'd have a bit of a hunt on our hands, so we circled around the whole thing before I spotted some suspicious looking cammo. An equally spookish find here. TFTC.

I found this one in Sunday....was a bit slow to log.
This multi was right up my alley as I’m fascinated by local history, and the paranormal.
I was aware of these haunted spots and admittedly I have tended to avoid them when walking at night by sticking closer to the more western and northern parts of the park!
I imagine the areas would have felt extremely creepy 20-25+ years ago when the rail line and tram sheds were disused.
I didn’t feel any creepy vibes in broad daylight with lots of people around...although I did get a quick startle when I spotted the container!
A favourite point from me for a great multi in a fascinating and beautiful area. TFTC Bebes!

My sort of cache !!
And, having read the logs, I decided to go fully prepared.
So I rose while it was yet dark, and donning garments asperged with holy water, gathered up grounding gemstones retained from some museum geo-caper - blood stone, hematite, garnet, ruby, tiger's eye. I added, for good measure, garlic, white sage and salt.
At the Street with No Name, I felt the earth groan a little, and an icy wind shook the trees. An eerie will-o'-the-wisp ghost-fire seemed to envelop me, and I could smell incense.
I grabbed the required data and headed quickly onwards... floating perhaps, just a little.
At the second waypoint a woman was sitting in the darkness, with her dog. She stared at me, and crossed herself. The dog howled and trembled, its tail between its legs, then pulled loose and ran, wimpering. I reached out my hands to reassure her, but screeching like a banshee, she followed her canine companion.
Perhaps I startled her??? Or surely not!!!!!! Ghostly possession???? Now that's a new idea. I do glow. Quite a lot. I can report that it isn't unpleasant - I wonder if it will wear off??
“I believe that it is difficult to kill an idea because ideas are invisible and contagious, and they move fast.” - Neil Gaiman.
Anyway, I moved fast sorting plaques and doing the maths, before tackling GZ. The luminous mist had abated a bit, so I lit the white candle I'd brought, and soon had CIH. An excellent hide.
Thank you The BOOOOOOOBebes.
In fact, I enjoyed it so much I shall award you a Favourite Point - and intend to return to cavort some more at Halloween.

No-one haunting these parts of Sydney today, except a few people at the light rail Station. The oval was empty, the grandstand was empty, not even a murder of crows to disturb the peace. Collected the numbers, did the calcs, headed to GZ. Recognisable cache camo as we had ghostbustered the other Haunted Sydney cache just before this one. Worth a favourite point. OCW Brewmaker. TFTC The Bebes
Another haunted experience solved and found. Managed to find the digits easily enough and headed to GZ. Of course, when at GZ it took a bit of work, but soon enough it was found above Brew's head height but certainly not for EverestHigh.
Scary times today as the geodog was going crazy when we walked past "The street with no name". The article I found about it on the net explains her bizarre behaviour. Have a FP, but not from Zelda! TFTC
FROM THE WEBSITE:
The Street with No Name is located in Annandale, a suburb in the Inner West of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Locals claim there is something inexplicably evil about the viaduct and surrounding park, particularly at night. Some say an eerie presence can be felt, others tell tales of bizarre behaviour displayed by small children and dogs that visiting the area. It's one of the Top Haunted Roads in the world.
The street, an overgrown, narrow alleyway that runs alongside a light rail viaduct, is located in a small area giving access to the arches of a railway bridge near Jubilee. Along with the surrounding park area, The Street With No Name has borne witness to multitude of monstrous crimes.
Dubbed The Street With No Name, the park seems to be surrounded by evil. Several paranormal investigators have visited the site, where visitors have reported feeling overwhelmed by fear, anxiety and foreboding, feeling unable to breathe, hearing footsteps and strange odours. With a history of murders and unspeakable crimes this area has quite an intriguing past and can apparently bring out some bizarre behavior with visitors to the area especially dogs and children. With many of the bodies of the murdered that have been dumped here going unsolved it comes as no surprise that eerie happenings, strange sightings and noises and sudden temperature changes have been reported by late night visitors to the site.

Another spooky one in the dark made it all the more spookier by all the creepy crawlies that come out after dark. Everything for an FTF though.
Great series thanks for placing
