Haunted by my idleness, yes
Yep - it appears to be spreading.Haunted by my idleness, yes
Spooky - I wonder what the significance of the red scarves are though.I work in an office in Coventry England, it is surrounded by haunted locations and three of the most haunted roads in the area. The office has various activities including noises, sighting of shadow people and two ghosts a male and female both wearing red scarfs.When you work late you do not want to be the last person in the office as the shadows start moving and the air become very weird.
But one report has been made that children playing ring a ring of roses in the car park late at night has been seen.
I work in a 17th century manor house - I'm guessing it's haunted by something or other.
Oh that's cool, is it like being in an episode of Rentaghost?
Now haunted by you!I work in a 17th century manor house - I'm guessing it's haunted by something or other.
Interesting that - my partner works in a nursing home . One elderly male resident loved the placed so much he used to tell staff he never wanted to leave. After he passed, for a short time he was seen by staff a number of times ambling along the corridor outside his former room . Perhaps not surprising that we don't hear more such stories relating to care homes given the potential adverse reaction from staff and potential clients.I worked at a rest home that was haunted, it was only
when the management saw that I was puzzled by what
was going on that they came clean and told me it was
a ghost, they had lost a few workers in the passed
so did not mention it, people that see these things rarely
seem to tell others except when they realise they are experiencing
the same things.

Man I would definitely want to be the last person in the office!
In my job it's called 'Last Man Standing'
I used to occasionally work night shift on a hospital ward (The Queen's Hospital, Burton On Trent) ..
I'd be siting at the nurses station and often catch what looked like someone walking into a patient's side room out of the left corner of my eye .. I knew enough to not take those 'sightings' seriously because I was tired, the lights had been dimmed, it was from the corner of my eye etc ..
The weird thing was that most patients who were close to death in that room would often tell us about the kid or kids in their room or in their bed, one woman was concerned about where the kids parent's were ..
The building was originally built as a TB centre but when I worked there, it was care of the elderly ..

Including school and college breaks plus agency work, at least 20. I get bored easily and resign ... or occasionally fired.How many different places and jobs have you worked, Swifty?
My brother use to work in a 24 hr Retail Store. The night shifts were horrible with incidents like sudden noise pitches, paranormal customers which pay cash and then vanishes after just after leaving.
Did they take their purchases with them? If not you could put the stuff back on the shelves...
Disgruntled former guest perhaps?My sister use to work in an "haunted" hotel. The incidents she personally witnessed were paintings in reception launching themselves horizontally off walls and smashing across the room. The switchboard light to signify a telephone was in use would frequently come on when a particular room was empty and locked, and there was another room in which the bed would keep breaking, even when the room hadn't been used or a new bed had been installed.
The kitchen in the place I've mentioned above seemed to be a focal point as well ? the cook used to accuse me of deliberately switching off his hot water overnight but even he realised there was weird stuff happening that couldn't have been my fault, I even saw an old man's head in relief walking past one night (I was the one walking, the almost certainly optical illusion was created I think but the electric blue fly zapper thing on the wall) ... forgive me but I've go an urge to listen to this now ..The office we were in last year was definitely haunted. sounds from the kitchen as if someone was moving the cups around, shadows moving, the feeling of someone standing behind you, etc. The new office is a lot calmer, although I have heard my name called a couple of times and there is the sounds of doors closing.
Bear in mind at night there is only 2 of us in the building...

Yea, we saw lots of fleeting movement, normally around the doorway into the office. It was like someone was just hanging around there
This lunchtime I came across one of those .. she was with her bloke and they cheerfully told me they were looking for cigarette buts on the pavement and clearly pissed .. they're not dangerous people, just desperate so I gave them a bit of rolling baccy instead .. then she started telling me she absolutely hadn't nicked a can of beer yesterday from our shop, honestly !! .. I'd already been laughing about it the day before with the lady who works behind the counter and we've got her doing it on CCTV. Her excuse to our shop lady member of staff at the time was "I dunno ? .. I might have done it subconsciously ?" ... she's about 60, we're not going to bar her, just watch her a bit more closely from now on .. .. God loves a trier ..In Swifty's shop the paranormal customers take things and then vanish.
Mind you he lives in Cromer.
