A team of 'ghostbusters' will spend the night in an historic pub on southern Queensland's Darling Downs to investigate claims of paranormal activity.
The team of four will spend Saturday night in the Royal Bull's Head Inn on Toowoomba's outskirts after being given permission by the owners, the National Trust of Queensland.
Darren Davies from Paratek Paranormal says there have been several sightings of ghosts in the pub, including two farmers who died of arsenic poisoning in the 1800s.
Mr Davies says he is among a team of four who will use the latest sensors and imaging equipment.
"Not every place in fact - far from it - is actually haunted," he said.
"[In] most cases electrical interference is one of the biggest reasons behind people's feelings or events, so we're really very realistic in terms of what we want to achieve."
He says in most cases there is a scientific reason for unexplained sightings but sometimes there is no explanation.
"When we've come with absolutely everything covered, well then, we have to accept that it is paranormal," he said.
He says the team will publish their findings within six weeks.
