    St Bartholomew's Church & Cemetery

    ProspectAustralia1841–Present

    St Bartholomew's Church and Cemetery, situated atop Pinner's Ridge in Prospect, New South Wales, is one of Western Sydney's oldest and most paranormally active historic landmarks. Consecrated in 1841 by Bishop William Grant Broughton, the church served early colonial pioneers, explorers, and local farming families. Following a devastating arson fire in 1989 that gutted the nave, the restored landmark and surrounding graveyard have become infamous for reports of floating orbs, disembodied footsteps, mysterious phantom music, and the spectral apparition of James Willis, a British settler buried on the grounds.

    St Mary's Catholic Church in Ipswich, Queensland, is an iconic neo-Gothic sandstone landmark and one of the largest regional parish churches in Australia.

Widely regarded by local historians as one of the most haunted places in Ipswich, St Mary's is renowned for supernatural legends surrounding its pipe organ playing unassisted late at night and reports of spectral figures in the choir loft.

    Shettihalli Rosary Church (Floating Church)

    HassanIndia1860s

    Shettihalli Rosary Church, located near Hassan in Karnataka, is a magnificent 19th-century Gothic ruin built by French Catholic missionaries. Following the construction of the Hemavati Dam and Reservoir in 1960, the surrounding village was relocated and the abandoned church became partially submerged underwater every monsoon season. Known as the 'Submerged Church' or 'Floating Church', its roofless arches, hollow nave, and isolated riverside setting have inspired local ghost stories of disembodied hymns and phantom figures.
