My Bloody Valentine

Join us after dark for My Bloody Valentine — a one-of-a-kind cemetery tour that explores the racier, stranger, and occasionally scandalous side of love and death at South Brisbane Cemetery.

With torch in hand and curiosity piqued, you’ll meander through moonlit headstones as our guides unravel true tales of heartbreak, betrayal, and romantic misadventure — all drawn straight from the historical records. From torrid affairs to tragic endings, this tour digs up the stories that might once have caused a bit of a blush in polite company.

Among the tales you’ll hear:

• a ghoulish 'Don Juan' with a chilling reputation
• a love triangle with a caustic twist
• inappropriate rendezvous among the resting
• bigamy, bold lies — and a wedding scandal where two rites definitely made a wrong.

Whether you’re a hopeless romantic, a curious historian, or just in it for the juicy bits, this tour offers a cheeky and thought-provoking look at the ways love can go…horribly, hilariously, or heartbreakingly wrong.

Guided by always-engaging guides, including award-winning cemeterian Tracey Olivieri, this night-time experience is a fun, safe, and unforgettable way to see the cemetery in a whole new light!

Love never dies. But it sure does leave behind some juicy stories.

All of our tours are not-for-profit, with all money raised going to our cemetery history and maintenance projects.
