IT WALKED THROUGH THE WALL
(Kenny)
I was trying to get to sleep one night and saw a ghost. It had long hair and wore a leather jacket with jeans. Then he just walked through the wall and disappeared.
THE ABATTOIR
(Karen)
I work as a PR agent and I also have my own business as a photographer. The offices I rent used to be an abattoir!!! Disgusting I know, but I didn't find this out until I'd been there for years. Anyway, lots of stories about the guy that owned it killed himself on the premises etc. No proof, but if you are in at night (which I am quite often downloading pics etc) footsteps are clearly audible on the tiled floor. Also doors can be heard opening and closing. This is impossible as the building now houses studios and darkrooms and all the doors are controlled in order people can't just wander in and out and ruin a shot or recording or whatever. (You have to punch in a code to activate the door lock) Anyway, we called the noises Hamish and everyone has heard them at one time or another. We talk to Hamish and have no problem with him at all. We have a doorbell in the loading bay that has been replaced around 5 times in the 14 years I've been here. Each time it has been replaced due to malfunction - or is it??? Every single doorbell rings intermittently when there is no one there. Anyway, the story - this actually happened. There is a woman in charge of building security called Marj. Now Marj is a big country girl, sturdy, no nonsense, laughs at our Hamish talk etc. Real down to earth. Anyway, she got a call one night that the building alarm was going off, she would have to check and secure the building. No problem, off she set and when she got here it looked all OK. Now, when you lock up our building, the procedure is set the alarm, throw the electricity switch so there is NO POWER anywhere in the building at night, apart from the alarm system and security light. No offices or studios have power going to them once the switch is thrown. So Marj arrives, outside looks OK. She checks in with the local police that she is there and all looks OK. The police will be there to accompany her soon, so she opens up the main door to check around and shut off the alarm. The place is in darkness as the power is off, so using her torch Marj goes to the alarm to check the code to see where the violation has occurred. As she does so, and resets the alarm she notices that in the front office there is a light. When she checked it, the computer is on!!! The computer monitor is on!!!! And the power is still off!!! Even Marj wasn't too thrilled with this. She was quite happy to take on any burglars, but this wasn't on!!! She reset the system and bolted back to her car to wait for the police!!!
We couldn't explain that one!!! In the morning the computer was off. Marj didn't touch it. She said her feet practically didn't touch the floor on the way out she went so fast!!! No way she went into the office and took time to switch off a computer that had no power going into it!!!
I also get strange little things at my house too. Most common is when I am in bed watching the TV. Even though the remote is in the bedside cabinet drawer the volume will go up and down, and the TV switches itself off quite frequently.
