A Haunted

Past

There is always a thing of mystery about old buildings, specifically those flickering lights and doors that open by themselves...

The Train station, like most old buildings, is host to some of it’s very own Ghosts and Ghouls. There are reports from over the years of a headless man who haunts platform 8 (Left), of a veiled woman who roams the upper floor corridoors at night and there have been people who’ve seen a pointing man in the shadows of the Undercroft.

Most recently a staff member was in an upstairs office and heard buzzing noises a moment before feeling the light caress of an icy touch on her neck, needless to say she hightailed it out of there. The space around her desk was cold to the touch for about half hour after.
