i was cynical about it but ive heard and experienced some stuff thats kind of changed my mind.

we were doing a tv appearance with the band at a local tv station a couple of years ago. well the smart people in charge decided they wanted to have their station broadcasting from an old shut down mental home. if u've ever played silent hill u kind of get the picture of what this place looked like.

anyways even at that i was still cynical when the staff and crew were terlling us about strange stuff that happened etc... someone was saying one of the toilets was haunted so go upto the ones on the 2nd level. anyways nature calls and i think sack that i dont believe it so i walked into the toilet they said was haunted and str8 away the air got really really humid and heavy as if u could actually feel it around u and the hairs on my arms and neck stood up. was really really freaky. i did my business and got out of there but it did freak me out a good deal.

apparently one of the mixing rooms in abbey road studios is haunted and this is what an old tutor of mine said happened when he walked into it (not believing it either) and said that it disappeared as soon as he left the room. really wierd cos thats exactly what happened with me and i didnt tell him about my experience.

my girlfriends parents say theyve seen ghosts too. her mum is an ex nurse and apparently one night she saw an elderly nurse who she thought was the warden walking round the place and tuckign peoples sheets in. just as that happened the actual warden foned to say she'd be up in 5 minutes to check everythign was ok., there was only 3 nurses in the barracks that nite (she was an army nurse) her, the warden and her friend who was sitting right next to her at the time. this was way before the time of mobile fones and when they explained what theyd seen to the warden she said that an old nurse had died there years ago and people had claimed to have seen her. it freaked them out too.

her dad's stories even cooler. he has family way up in the north of scotland and he was up years ago and they were talkign about ghost sightings of a biker who'd died on the road upto there decades ago. without anyone saying anythign he was able to describe pretty much everything that people had said he looked like and when asked how he knew he said he'd saw the biker wavign at them years ago when they passed makign gestures for them to slow down but hadn't thought anything of it. apparently the biker stands at the side of this road and if ur going too fast he'll appear and tell u to slow down cos he died by going too fast.
