OK, this is great, hot off the press. A relative has been in the Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford (doing well, fortunately), in Albury Ward. She hasn't been heavily drugged, so is lucid and interacting normally. She is in the first bed on the right in a 6-bed room opposite the nurses station, with a toilet immediately opposite her, a door on the left as you enter the little room. On Saturday she texted me to say she had seen a ghost during the night (Friday pm/Saturday am). Early on Saturday morning, about 2.30am, she was sat in her chair due to cramp in her legs (arthritis causing her too much pain to lie down in the bed). She saw a tall person appear from nowhere, dash into the toilet opposite her bed and slam the door shut. After a few minutes, it opened the door and it came out and ran towards the ward entrance, where a male nurse was standing. The male nurse firmly said "NO" and the figure ran back to the toilet slamming the door shut. My relative wanted to use the toilet, and waited and waited for the figure to come out, but no-one did. After about an hour, she was now desperate to use the toilet and called a nurse, but explained she thought someone was in the toilet. The nurse helped my relative to the toilet and checked to see if anyone was in there - there was nobody of course, yet nobody had come out.
She didn't ask the male nurse if he had seen anything, afraid he would think she was mad. She also hadn't mentioned it to any of the other nurses because she didn't want to scare them. I told her that the nurses probably had more ghost stories than anyone and she would be unlikely to scare them! She said the ward had a very strange atmosphere at night and is very quiet. She described the figure as both a person and a "thing"; she said it did not seem solid somehow, and she could not make out whether it was a man or a woman. She said the sound was very strange, the sound of running and the slamming of the door were noisy, but like they were coming from somewhere else - like it was "not on our plane", the ward itself was in deep silence. She has difficulty describing both the substance of the figure and the quality of the sound. She is sure she was awake and not asleep; I have no reason to doubt her since she has fairly irregular sleeping habits and is often awake at night.
