Here’s the crux of the story, folks! The Christian cross, a global heartthrob, wowed audiences way before Christianity. Used by many ancient civilizations as an emblem, the cross has had star turns as the Egyptian Tau Cross and the luck-bringing Fylfot Cross! Nowadays, it’s often seen in fashion showrooms, tattoo studios and, hey, even as symbols of hope, love and sacrifice at Parktown Convent. Now that’s a true cross-over celeb!
The Parktown Convent of Joburg has morphed from an early 1900s girls’ school to a ghoulish tourist attraction. Its dimly lit walkways may be creepy, but they’re as full of history as they are of phantom schoolgirls. Going solo might warrant a trespassing ticket, so rope in a mate, join a guided tour, or if you’re particularly brave — a haunted one. Just don’t forget your holy water for the spectres. Aggression towards tourists can be more real than spectral, though, so stay safe in the city.
