Ghost at work

metalblue said:
Mrs MB worked on a ward a few years back and it wasn’t always the most busy on a night shift so when quiet they’d take it in turns to get an hour or two shut eye in the office. There were a lot of stories from nurses on the ward of weird happenings in the office the more extreme saying they’d been woken up being chocked. Mrs MB experienced some stuff in that room, nowt as weird as yours, and how much of that was down to the idea being planted in the brain we will never know.

I personally don’t believe in ghosts but have seen/heard the odd weird thing that could be explained away but the rationale explanation for what happened doesn’t match the situation … so who knows. My in-laws used to live in a house and they’d have music and stuff playing when they got home and other stuff like lights and noises - it was only that one house never before or after. It certainly appealing to think there is something after we’ve gone.

I would hate to think that spirits of our family would stand there watching while I …. My missus used to work at the old Alder hey hospital where there used to be a haunted lift. Just after the death of a child, something would happen ( running footsteps, glass of water going over or a tug on the uniform. Not often though. Personally I just think that these are far flung stories to get out of working nights.

Don’t tease us. What’s your story? Nobody on here will be able to explain it away, they might offer an alternative rationale. Just like things we understand today were beyond the comprehension of our ancestors.
 
I was woken from a nap on my break by a matron in a cape that we wore back then, when we dressed properly, came out and the other nurses on said she had not been and they didnt wake me, also we had a traction room, orthopaedic ward, and at night it was very noisey with nobody in there

Someone on crutches coming up the ward but nobody there

Lovely on nites in that hospital, just got used to it after a while

Yeah ain’t it strange a lot of these incidents are at night ;)

We moved in to an old house which needed some doing up when I was a teen. Me mum was stripping the wallpaper during the day and felt a tap on her shoulder turned round and me dad was on the far side of the room. Ghost? Memory? Mind playing tricks? Who knows but she felt it and no one can explain it.

I posted in another thread daughter is a student midwife and she’s gone to check on one of her ladies in labour… put the machine on, nothing from the baby, called in a qualified who tried the machine. Nothing. Tried another machine. Nothing. Called in another qualified who tried another machine. Nothing. Consultant in, checked, nothing. Took her down for c-section to remove the dead child as lady was too distressed to carry on in labour … and out comes a live baby completely fine and no one can explain it.
 
It's always an interesting subject and one day we'll find out....or not as the case may be.

If everything is energy then I guess it's not unfeasible to think that traumatic energy may be trapped or linger. That's why a lot of instances seem to occur in old institutions, hospitals and prisons, where a lot of trauma would have happened. Who knows?

Quite right n’ all… maybe we should re-employ dead nurses. That’ll fix the NHS.

Haha, quiet nights and we all had a nap in the breaks

I think that these things happen day and nite but in the nite there are no distractions and you hear and see things much easier

If you have vividly seen or heard a ghost, you have probably just had a visual or audio hallucination.

You don't have to be schizo to have these moments. Just tired, half-asleep, scared, in an unfamiliar place, emotionally fatigued.

Yep. I've had full on hallucinations before (DTs, sensory overload) and you could easily see how someone could believe they had seen a ghost (spent time talking to people who were in fact on the far side of the country at the time as well as some deceased family members and friends, in reality I was talking to myself).

One of the theories I like is these things are just a break in time and both you and that matron would have experienced it when you were alive. She’d have gone out and said “who is that sleeping nurse I just woke” and got told “there’s no one in there” and thought she’d seen a ghost.

You're right, I once attended a management conference at Old Trafford and saw Paddy Crerand.

Basically, I got bum rushed by something wearing heavy boots with Blakeys (segs) as I walked up steps leading out of a cellar. Whatever it was came running out of a room in the cellar that I'd just been in, through a sound proofed door and up the steps behind me...There was fuck all there, and it was loud, really loud. I fucking cacked it and actually screamed before running up the steps with it still coming up behind me. Got to the door that led into the kitchen, and the bastard wouldn't open, and then for no good reason it opened and I ran outside. The bit that got me was the fact that the cellar was carpeted throughout and up the stairs. The noise I heard was deffo boots or clogs on a stone floor and it was right behind me.
