New owner of Central Otago hotel not spooked by ghost encounter
The new owner of Central Otago’s famous haunted Vulcan Hotel has first-hand experience of the ghost.
Royce Clark has been visiting St Bathans for duck shooting and rugby with mates for more than 40 years, and has been a regular at the hotel.
However, doors were closed for the first time in 140 years earlier this month when one of the proprietors became seriously ill and a sale deal failed.
“I thought ‘stuff it. Let’s get down there and getting it cranked up again’.”

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
