In 2016, the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) conducted its first ever paranormal investigation at its Tasma Terrace headquarters, with the help of Paranormal X Files. Due to popular demand, the National Trust and Paranormal X Files are collaborating once again and opening the doors of our properties to members and the general public.

Built for the merchant and banker Johnathon Porter O’Brien and his
wife Ann, the house was filled with mahogany furniture, damask curtains, Bohemian glass, Dresden china, a piano, two music boxes, card-tables, paints, chess and backgammon boards.

The extensive library featured a ‘Cyclopaedia of Medicine’ and Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. The cellar was stocked with wine and spirits, the conservatory filled with plants, sculptures, a collection of coral and two canaries in brass cages.
The O’Briens lived in the house for only a year but, over 160 years later, the Gothic Revival house’s unique features are still to be seen including a veranda balustrade, a rare smoking room and early conservatory.
