Got really spooked out today working in a really old building .. The customer went out and left me to carry on with my job but It felt so eerie I just couldn't concentrate on what I was doing . Something just didn't feel right at one point I thought sod it ill just pack up and go lol . I've worked in loads of old buildings but this one just felt different :{.... Has anyone else experienced any thing like this on a job ?

My first regular contract was a childrens nursery. A big old Victorian house, Flotex direct onto floorboards, what a pig of a job. I had to do it starting at 6pm on Friday night and let myself out about 2 in the morning. Only hot water was in the basement. The cleaner took great delight telling me just before she left at 7 that the place was haunted by an old music teacher who lived therE in the past.
That wasn't a pleasant nights work. Took my brother and law as a helper next time I did it and told him about it soon after we started, wish I hadn't because he was pooping himself all night and refused to go next time I asked him.
One of our local customers do a local factory and first time they did it they were locked in. The wife was in the cellar trying to get the hot water boiler to work and couldn't so she rang the manager who had locked them in asking how to fire the boiler up, half way through the conversation she aid "oh wait there I'll just ask the guy whos just walked past" he said therEs nobody there except you and Dave, Dave was on the second floor.

Did a job in an old pub once - worked through the night - the pub it self was right next door to an old theatre - got on with job BUT every now and then caught a fleeting glimpse  of guy walking about at the other end of the bar - I thought it was the landlord  making sure i was doing the job and not supping the beer - next morning landlord comes downstairs -happy with clean and pays me - I said thanks and commented that he must be a bit tired as I thought I saw him whilst I was working - he says no not me he had gone straight to bed and I must have seen their resident ghost - an old actor ( Victorian times)  who was a regular who had died in the pub !!!!!
This is a true story  - and as the great Elvis once said " I was all shook up"

Curtain rehang & steam dressing in two crematorium chapels ......... never signed in on FourSquare that day, in case any local 'mates' crept in and gave me a heart attack

Did a job at BAFTAS in Piccadilly, the building is well known to have a resident ghost who goes across top of the theatre room, opens a trap door and then on to the roof.......we must have heard that trap door open and slam about 5 times but never saw anything,

At no time did we feel frightened or anything but it was a strange experience...been back many times since but never heard anything again...Lots of people say they have seen something, and some of staff will not work in certain areas on their own...
