Mythbusting

• The Myth of Halliday's Leap
• Did Johnny Cash Play a Concert at Boggo Road?
• Ghosts of Boggo Road
• The Boggo Road Burials Mystery
• The 'Black Holes'
• Boab Prison Trees - Fact or Fiction?

The presentation and retelling of any history can be subject to mistakes, exaggeration and invention. Prisons - being deliberately-created worlds-within-worlds - are especially prone to this problem, and quite a lot of misinformation and urban myths about Boggo Road have been generated and perpetuated over the years.

The pages linked above address some of these 'myths'.
