This Halloween, we're delving into the darkest corners of the national archival collection to uncover stories of the mysterious and macabre.

From the 'cursed' shipwreck Alkimos to spooky lighthouses, unexplained lights in the sky and other ghostly happenings, we'll share chilling stories from Western Australia's history.

But if the supernatural doesn't send shivers down your spine, brace yourself for some real-life preservation horrors.

Discover what hides in archival boxes and the terrors that can lurk within the pages of an archival file—from rusty staples to the dreaded paper cut!

In the repository, no one can hear you scream.
