Ghostly goings on at the Everyman Theatre


One former worker said: “There were days when I opened the door to go backstage and for the life of me I could not go in!”
He said many of the theatre staff have their own stories: “One man, a sound engineer, was the last person in the theatre one night and tells the story of a man brushing past him in a cloak and top hat.”
Last week’s theatregoer said: “There was no sense of badness or evil or anything.”
Mr Spillane agreed and added: “We had ghost hunters in a couple of years ago who put equipment all over the place in the building. The feedback they got is that the entity that is here is good, it is a theatrical entity who looks after the building.”
