The isolation in Tasmanian ghost stories is really scary. Many of the settings, like the old convict settlements or remote mansions, are in isolated areas. This isolation makes the idea of a ghost presence even more terrifying as there's no one around to help if something spooky happens.
Sure. One well - known Tasmanian ghost story is about Port Arthur. It was a former convict settlement. People claim to see the ghosts of convicts still lingering there. Some visitors have reported seeing strange apparitions in the old prison cells and around the ruins.
A Tasmanian devil named Spike was always very active during the day. But when bedtime came, he knew it was time to rest. Spike had a special place under a big rock where he made his bed. The stars twinkled above as he lay down. He thought about all the fun he had that day, like playing with his Tasmanian devil friends. Before long, his eyes grew heavy, and he fell into a deep slumber, his body relaxed and at peace.

In my opinion, it's hard to say all are real ghost stories. There are many fictional elements often added to make them more exciting. However, there are those who claim to have had real encounters and base their stories on that, but it's difficult to prove objectively.
