hi all
in reply to richs spooky photo
where is the spookiest place you have had the misfortune to work,
mine was a 200 year old mansion house that had a court at one end of a long corridor,upstairs in the attic was a holding cell,prisoners would be led down from here to the court to be sentanced, remember you could be hanged for nicking a sheep,this place had a horrible atmosphere and when working late and it got dark,there was no way i was going down that end ,include your own ghost stories

I worked in a castle up here that was meant to be haunted. It was in the middle of nowhere and we were staying there through the week. The place had no power or running water and we were the only guy's working there. Young padawan was bricking it most nights, especially with me telling ghost stories before I turned the generator off for the night......

I love spooky stories, i had a real good big job on about 5 years ago in the middle of Ireland.
I had another tiler mate in with me on that job and he is a horror film etc fan and collector.
We were staying i a local B&B and drinking every night in the great local pubs with my customer and his buddies.
One night they told us about this haunted house on our way to the job to a from every day.
The next evening on the way back to the B&B i found the bridge and corner they talked about so turned left up this old stone lane !!!
I got to the top and turned right into a yard with an old old house sitting there, curtains blowing out from the windows etc and not a breeze about !
It was damn spooky and tom my horror fan buddy was shouting at me to get out of there quick !!lol
He said he didn't mind fiction but didn't like real stuff :lol:
It was one weird spot and didn't look right.
Great spot for a haunted house attraction.
Tom has about £20k worth or horror memorabilia, including masks in glass cages from horror films with certificates etc. bad stuff and even hatchets etc hanging up in his converted attic.

I worked in Broadmoor about 18 months ago. The first scarey part was walking to the area we were working in, especially when you walked round a corner and a bunch of inmates came strolling towards you......
The whole place had a really eerie feel to it. We were working right next to the chapel where many strange sightings have ben reported. I was working on my own fixing nosings to some stairs one day when suddenly a dark figure came walking down the stairs towards me:yikes: It was the vicar coming to have a look at what we'd been doing!! I did have to apologise several times for my language *!@%$!@**!!
