> Rumours

i nearly got murdered in queenstown

This is correct

Do tell. Also, postcode bro

You cunts have internet?

not from tassie. mainlander scum

ok here is my tale:

>be backpacking around west coast
>catching bus from launceston to strahan
>at cradle mountain switch to a smaller bus.
>about 4 people on bus
>banter with bus driver throughout the drive, i mention that i don't know anyone or have accommodation and i'm just winging it as i go
>planning on staying a few nights in strahan, then one in queenstown en route to hobart
>at queenstown stop a girl approaches me and gives me her number
"hey i heard you don't have somewhere to stay. me and my partner have a spare bed and you're welcome to stay with us"
>kinda weird, literally hadn't spoken a word to this girl, but hey, sweet, free accommodation

cont.

Shits gonna be good.

7248 repping

7250 again

Suburb?

You guys the same guys from the other night?

cont.

>no mobile reception in strahan, when i finally arrive back in queenstown i contact her to take her up on the offer
>sitting in cafe eating shitty breakfast when she and bf come to meet me
>still halfway through my meal, he interrupts me and says "you must very very tired, you should put your feet up"
>ummm ok. leave breakfast unfinished.
>walk back through the streets to their place

so i don't know how familiar you are with queenstown. it is the sad result of the end of a mining boom. it is literally a ghost town
you know those american moving with towns with tumbleweeds? like that

>walking up their street, right on the edge of town
>theirs is one of the last houses
>we pass about 4 inhabited houses the whole walk - everything else is abandoned. as in, boarded up, windows smashed etc
>feeling a bit uncomfortable walking out of town towards the mountains with two strangers but hey i've had crazier travel adventures
>we reach their house and they invite me inside

cont.

>The Hills Have Eyes: Queenstown Edition

Sheeeeit

There's a small town not far from there called Ruby. My grandfather said that if you had a choice of living there or living in Hell, you'd pick hell. Mining has contaminated the entire town with sulphur. A small cut will fester in 20 minutes. A serious wound could nearly kill you.

cont.

>there is no furniture.
>nothing.
>not even a chair.
>they sleep on a mattress in the living room with sheets pulled around it.
>apparently they've lived there for 4 months
>they show me to the "spare bedroom"
>confused as to why they sleep in the living room
>there's a closed mystery door that they won't acknowledge
>they show me around the place
>fucked derelict as shit, nails on the floor
>in the kitchen the guy turns to me and says "this is your home now"
ohshit.jpg
>feeling kinda weirded out.
i really can't convey how strange these people were. they didn't speak unless i spoke to them and they spoke so. slowly. it. was. like. speaking. to. a. wall. i was starting to feel super uncomfortable
>in living room, i look over the hanging sheets at their bed
>"hey um, why do you guys have an axe there?"
>they pause and look at each other. "camping"
>they have no furniture guys. there sure as fuck wasn't any camping gear.
>omg omg freaking out by this point
>still trying to assume the best of people, maybe that's legit?

cont.

I'm always here.

NW coast here, bamping

7307 waiting for the rest of the story

Keep going

This is exactly how I imagine regional Tasmania.

I've only been to Hobart and that was creepy enough

Did you mean camping?

cont.

>have a look at their mantlepiece (there are no shelves or any furniture, remember)
>there's a hot glue gun and a tattooing kit. "oh cool do you make things/do tattoo art?" "no."
>notice a big ass knife
>wtf
>wtf
>ask "hey um, what's this?"
>the guy tells me to open it
>he said it in the creepiest way though. really intense eye contact
>open the knife, it's a double blade serrated knife. i don't even know what you'd use it for. the only time i've seen blades like that is in butchers or people out hunting
>"so, why do you have this?"
>no reply
>ok really flipping my shit now
>suggest we go to the supermarket, get myself the fuck back into town
>as we leave the house i notice there are no bins
>apparently someone stole their bins
>sure, usually that's a funny story
>this is a town of like 1000 people. mystery bin stealing isn't normal
>ask them what they do with their trash.
>they look at each other and start walking.
>at this point i realise that underneath their house is a basement with blacked out windows
>omg i'm nearly crying at this point

cont.

Does anyone know either of these two? They were posted ages ago, apparently from tassie

I'm calling it now. There's a grow room behind the locked door and 30 tonnes of garbage in the basement.

None of this sounds good, but user is obviously still alive.

House in Queenie with basement??

Yeah, not going to be as bad as he says.

That or walking the dinosaur.

RUN

I don't think I've ever seen a house in tassie with a basement

cont.

oh i forgot something!
when i first arrived and i still wasn't totally freaked out, i offered to take them out to dinner at the one pub in town as a thank you
>they look at each other really strangely
>no. we thought we'd stay in tonight.
innocuous on its own but in the whole context weirded me out. plus who says no to getting shouted a free meal?

ok back to the story

>ok so i'm thinking we'll be walking back to town down the creepy abandoned streets we came up. sure, they're creepy, but they're increasingly inhabited the closer to town we go
>nope
>they make to walk up the mountain
>it is away from town
>wat
>"hey isn't town back that way?"
>"yeahh. i thought we could go exploring"
>"ummm nahh i'm really hungry let's go in to town"
>guy: "we've never been here before, come on, it'll be fun"
>yolo it and follow them for like 20 meters
>guy: "where was it?"
>girl: "i think it's up this way"
>omg nope nope nope
>nope the fuck out of there
>go and get my stuff
>go to the pub
>book a room
>spend the night looking into missing persons reports on the west coast of tassie

seriously if anyone goes missing / turns up dead i know who did it

7230 Represent

the weirdest thing was that there were no signs of drug use
none.
like, not even a cigarette butt
drugs would have been reassuring! would have actually made sense why they lived in a shitbox and were weird as fuck

Did they look like the weird type? Or just normal looking people?

When was this?

Can you see the place on Google maps?

seriously. yes.

Did they have an overwhelming resemblance to each other? Brother and sister, maybe?

Shit dude, I'd tell the cops anyway. The whole story doesn't check out. Fuck only knows what was going on there.

Yes this! Lets find a murder house

Bump for interest...

Bumperino

How about we just start posting naked chickas from tassie? Hobart/launnie w/e.

The weird shit's weirding me out.

Why not both?

same where you guys at? Newstead here

they looked kind of stoner-y. which is why i put up with the weirdness for so long, i thought maybe they were just a bit dopey and weird.
in retrospect they kind of looked like drifters.

this was like 2 weeks ago
i'll google street view it

Yea ok.

:^)

7005.. yeiw

yeah it was so fucking weird. i like to think i just totally overreacted but everyone i've told the story to thinks it's not normal
plus i'm not one for airy-fairy shit, but something just didn't feel right in my gut.

Mowbray

Anyone actually know this chick?

Trevallyn buddy. You the mowbray guy?

There's over half a million people on this rock, and sixteen of them in this thread.

Do I need to talk to you about forlorn hopes, user?

Oh shi- i wish. Dood shes hot

How does an Americunt transplant to Straya?

Worth a shot man

murder house

(holy shit gave me chills looking at it)

mt murder

Is that you Donald?

Yeah man, trying to find out some stories about her

winders were definitely blacked out when we were there and place was in much worse state

*windows. wow.

House on the left?

Where are you from user? How did u find tassie other than this story?

7007 btw.

Need some hot stuffs.

yep

other than this i had a great time haha. launceston was great fun, strahan is divine, would have liked more time at cradle mountain for hiking n shit but didn't work out
hobart was fun - was there during mofo

i'm from melbourne

Might have seen the house. Dont remember the white circle on the grass out the front tho.

the plants had grown up significantly higher too. obscured a lot of the place from the street

Thanks user. Creepy shit. Glad you're ok.

I'd call crimestoppers and say drugs. You might save someone's life.

pretty sure that's for their demonic ceremonies to satan

i've been considering it but i don't think they'd take me seriously calling and being like "hey i got a bit freaked out"
like, i have no solid evidence for anything
just super creepy

Chicks look like that in Tassie? You're like 10 years behind in terms of how hot your bitches are

i plan to keep an eye on missing persons reports though
yeah i'm not sure what else i could do.
hopefully no one else is as much of an idiot as i

seriously don't go home with strangers who pick you up from the bus stop.

Common sense suggests something bizarre was going on there. They had no furniture and no visible possessions except weapons. They had a locked room they wouldn't even acknowledge was there. They wanted you to go with them to an abandoned spot on a mountain, and discussed "the spot" immediately after saying they'd never gone there before.

Either they were trying to freak you out, or you were next. The whole thing is like an episode of Criminal Minds, ffs.

Well assuming you haven't freaked yourself out, then it does sound pretty creepy. It man not be sinister but it does sound weird. If someone ever goes missing in the area, this could give them an early lead

yeah i hadn't remembered the thing about the "spot" up the mountain until i was writing it out just then.
after the whole thing i was in like a cold sweat and shaking for hours

maybe i'll do like an anonymous tip :s
the main thing is they were probably just weird people and i made it all seem worse in my head. i don't want to get innocent people in trouble

but holy shit it felt weird.

Anyone in here from Hobart?

Yeah maan

Can you remember the road you were walking on to go to the spot? You should actually have a look to see if there's even a restaurant or supermarket or anything up that road. If there's not, that's pretty solid reason to believe that something fucked was about to go down

If they're innocent people, they don't have anything to worry about.

If they're killing backpackers, you could be the one who stops that.

Think it over.

10/10 story user, would read again

Lonny sluts welcomed by the by!

Candice

hmm true. they claimed it would loop around back into town but it was legit the opposite direction.
i guess i brushed it off as maybe they're just kinda stupid
it's been pointed out though that maybe they were acting stupid to get my guard down

you're right. i think i'll submit and anonymous tip haha

thanks user! it was horrifying at the time but makes for a good story now!

More creepy stories?

My sis once dated a dude drom out past smithton. Visited his family and they were crazy fuckers. The kind who decided to go to their made up church because they were bored.

Potters house always creep me the fuck out too.

I really think you should check that road out on google maps, see if anything they said about it was true

there's legit a part of me that doesn't want to bc what if there is no path

but i'm looking it up now

Maddison

Nah just ready for a change of scenery.

Sweet jegus...

Anyone got anything on Alyce Johnston?

ok looking at it
in theory you could get to the supermarket
but there's no path. you'd literally climb the mountain - go up one side and down the other.
it's like all sand though

that was another thing that made me uncomfortable - ever tried running in sand?

i'll post a google maps image in a sec

Why Australia specifically? If I may ask

How did you talk your way out of going with them? Were you like walking in the bush, get half way and then run away or did you make up some excuse to leave?

>first home state thread i've ever seen
>every picture 404'd

Or New Zealand, pretty much it is on the otherside of the world from my family and I wont have to learn a new language.

For real? They all work for me...

map

well one of the weird things was that even though they'd lived there for 4 months they literally know nothing about the town. not only did no one know them (in a town of 1000), but they knew nothing about the tourist attractions etc

so i insisted that i really wanted to go to the mining tour, made them turn around and walk back with me (i say with, because i made sure i walked abreast with them, not with them behind me)

then i made up a bs excuse that the mining tour is all day and i wanted my coat and shit. took my bag with me a cheesed it the fuck out of there

They all work for me. Postcode bro?

Nope. Nope nope nope fuck that all the way to the barn.

How did they react when you started running?

yeah fuck it's even worse looking at it like this
holy shit what was wrong with my brain i swear to god

i didn't run, just walked away very quickly.

i pretended that i was going to come back afterwards. i think they picked up that that was a lie though
it was super awkward bc the guy kept trying to hand me the spare keys and i was like nahhhh. nahhhhh i'll um. i'll text you when the tour is over

texted them a few hours later when i was safely holed up in the pub

Using VPN so might be messing with the links somehow. Google maps pics worked.
Queenstown is fucked.
