This is a question I have kicked around in the back of my mind, especially when it comes to something like the British Museum.
Does anyone have a story about a ghostly something inhabiting a museum?
In Chicago, the Field Museum of Natural History has, on display, the stuffed skins of the lions who were known as The Ghost and The Darkness. (They were rogue lions who killed a significant number of workers who were building the railroad in Tsavo.
They were in two separate glass cases when I saw them, but I believe now they are in one large glass display case. Anyway, I have read that some security guards at the museum tell stories about the glass case(s) being found empty in the middle of the night, then, when another guard is summonded, everybody is right back in their display where they are supposed to be.
Naturally I can't remember the name of the book, but I know where it is at home and will edit it into this post tomorrow if anyone is interested.
*edit*Looked this up in the book and naturally, it's not there. I remember now that I found it while surfing aimlessly on the web. Tried to google this subject and found eleventy jillion sites about the movie, but nothing else yet. Still searching....
