Brisbane's infamous "man in black", Jack Sim, walks the shadowy streets of town in search of the stories and tales of horrible history. Since childhood he has been fascinated not by blocks, bikes or cars (with the exception of his beloved Lulu, a 1939 Studebaker President Straight-8 hearse), but by stories of the past especially crime, murder, ghosts, prisons and cemeteries...

Jack has dedicated his life to preserving the details of things and subjects that all of us find both macabre and thrilling. A dedicated local artist, he has independently published eight books under several series: Murder Trails, Ghost Trails & The Boggo Road Gaol Series. Jack and his staff are actively involved in the Brisbane arts scene.

Since last century Jack Sim has inadvertently become an almost iconic character in Southern Queensland, seen late at night undertaking his eerie HAUNTED BRISBANE Ghost Tour & BLOODY BRISBANE Crime & Murder Tour with a collection of other Hosts of the region's most haunted sites, such as BOGGO ROAD gaol , dutton park CEMETERY & TOOWONG CEMETERY. He has been the longest running tour operator at Brisbane's iconic Boggo Road Gaol.

His work promoting history and heritage to visitors and locals has been seen in national and international media and documentaries such as Getaway, Great South East, Extra, George Negus Tonight and many others. The value of his contribution to cultural-heritage tourism goes largely unrespected.

He has strived to gain greater recognition for the value of storytelling and Queensland's incredible oral history.

Join this dark historian as he strives to undertake us on a journey to the unpleasant side of society, that no-one knew existed or wanted to.
