Spooky shit

[Rsmacker]

Just been to collect some gear from a local venue. It's quiet and empty, the manager says "Just me and the ghosts here"
"W-w-w-w-hat? Ghosts?"
"Yeah, 3 of em. There's an old bloke who sits on the edge of the stage. He's got no legs. There's a woman in the dressing rooms, and if you can smell burning, there's an old lady who burned to death who sometimes appears in the bogs".

I could smell smouldering.

Smoking is banned indoors at public buildings.

Fuck that, I decided I'll go back in the morning and pick my kit up!


I don't like being spooked!!!

Pussy lol...that stuff doesn't scare me but ghosts are real. They can't hurt you but they certainly can scare the shit out you.

[Rsmacker]

Exactly. They always say that the dead can't hurt you, but that's horseshit. I know that if I round a corner and bump into the spectre of a badly burned old lady, I guarantee, I'm going to shit my strides AND have a heart attack.
It's always different when you are in the light, people around you, easy to be brave. When you alone, late at night, and realise you've got to walk to the end of an old building to turn a light off, then walk back in the dark, things change.

I remember doing a job at a Stately Home, in the garden, Summertime, a wedding, I think. All I had to do was look after the generator, make sure it didn't trip out, and when the party was over, wait for the caterers to clear out and switch everything off and rip out the mains distro.
Party finishes, early hours, staff clear out, and I'm left, in the middle of nowhere, on the lawn of an Elizabethan mansion, next to a maze hedge, about to plunge the place into darkness. I could feel the spirits out there, I swear, waiting to close in, and it didn't help that a thick blanket of Scooby Doo mist was closing in. You've never seen someone roll up 25m of 25mm armoured cable so fast in your life, I humped it into the van like it was bellwire, I was that on edge.

And don't even ask me about the time I was in Warwick Castle, alone, midnight, in the dark, and had to go through the wax museum to fetch some cable...

Although I never physically seen a ghost I had them fuck with me before on several occasions plus a lot of different paranormal stuff all through my life. I guess I'm open to these kind of things and although my heart pounds and every hair on my body sticks straight up that's about it. I did have one time when I woke up in the middle of the night and I was being pinned down, I couldn't sit up or move, like there was 3000 pounds on my chest. Me being the competitive fuck that I am got pissed off, did the bench press and pushed up as hard as I could yelling "get the fuck off of me" ....never happened again after that.

That's usually a big fat chick in my case.

Sleep Paralysis

I had it a couple of times in my teens. It can be scary as hell, and it's where a lot of alien visitation, angel, demon, succubus, and ghost stories come from. It was very realistic in my case, and I don't fault anyone for believing exactly what their mind tells them happened.

"I ain't afraid o' no ghosts!"

[Shawn Lutz]

I'm aware of sleep paralysis and never had that. I woke up attmpeting to roll over on to my side and couldn't. I could move my arms, legs and head and could clearly see the clock and light coming through the window. I'm a light sleeper. This was a matter of seconds and not minutes. I know the difference and no I was never anally probed by aliens lol

haha, I had a christmas job in the Kitchens of Hatfield House. It's a really old stately home that was originally built before Henry VIII I think. Having to walk around the grounds was scary enough without going into the banquetting hall when it was almost pitch black. Scariest job I've had, but the most fun

was also featured in some well-known movies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatfield_House

[lerxstcat]

I would've got my gear out of there before the ghosts decided to move into my amp or guitars! You might end up taking them home with you now!

I am one of those people that do not believe in ghouls, ghosts, spectres, etc. Once your clock is punched, its the end.......game over.-Lou

Pussy. What kind of an example are you trying to set for your boy Wilksy? He's lost all respect for you now!

[Jack The Riffer]

There's a woman in the dressing rooms, and if you can smell burning, there's an old lady who burned to death who sometimes appears in the bogs".

So you heard about a "hot" chick and didn't try to shag her???
