Strange / Scary Experiences

[Pete999]

Been sat here with a bottle of Bordeaux thinking about some of the odd experiences I had during my early working life, now I lived and worked in Bath during my Apprenticeship and a lot of our clients came from the Georgian houses that made up a lot of Bath's wealthy residents. My boss said righto Pete first job on your own number --- Great Pultney Street 5-6 stories, bloody great doors and windows, you know the sort Sherlock Holmes types, a lot of these houses were a bit spooky if, like me you were a bit of a wimp in those days, rang the bell, creaky door opened, and I swear the guy that oped it was Boris Karloff, fastest socket change in history, put the fear of Christ up me I'll tell you, how about you guys, got any tales to tell?

Lovely houses on Pultney street. Done a few jobs down there, nothing scary though.

Only last week pete, We were on an old house in sheffield i was working at the top of the cellar steps when i felt someone watching me , so i turned quickly to look down the stairs to see a shadow dissapearing out of sight, then about an hour later the lad asked if i was in the cellar , no i said im in kitchen why, because i could swear i just saw you walk accross the cellar!!!, there were 2 floor boards up in the dining room so you could see through the gap to the cellar. we spent the rest of the day like bloody scooby doo and shaggy!!

Worked in lots of supposed haunted buildings but never been bothered by any. apart from one, Hull city hall where apparently it caught fire during a air raid in the war so everyone took refuge in the cellar. Along came the fire brigade and doused the flames drowning them all in the basement, walking along the corridors at night on your own really did freak me and everyone else on site out.
