The ghost is back! I work for a large firm & I've been here for about 5 years. There is something that always moves things around on my desk. At first I thought it was the janitors cleaning but I have two figurines that are always moved as if a child were at play. This happened randomly & for a while & then it would stop. There is an area that's semi dusty on my desk & whatever rearranged the stuff on my desk had left two hand smudge marks. I eventually moved to another dept & yesterday when I came in my headset was under my desk & my phone was facing the wall. The headset cord was literally wrapped around a power cord under the far corner of my desk & as usual the figurines were moved around.

I work for an aircraft company Called Braathens. The hangar next to us is West Air. One of the guys was in the main store area and he saw a man with grey hair and blue overalls walking into the store room, he followed hin not more than ten paces behind him. He turned right straight through a wall? He was next seen by two people at the same time sitting in a cockpit of a locked Aircraft. The guys opend the door and searched the plane but nothing?

When I was younger I was living in Germany where my dad was in the army. We lived in flats and it was really haunted. I'd wake up in the night and see a man standing by my bedroom door and hear tapping on the bathroom mirror. Well I was 11 years old at the time and it really scared me but for a long time after when we moved away I felt that the spirits had followed me and sensed things all the time but since I had my daughter not so much now. Has anyone else has ghosts follow them from place to place?

I was wondering if you can help. I work in a place where we have over 300 employees. Just recently myself and one other sensitive-to-ghosts employee have felt and heard things that make us think our workplace is haunted. I recently right behind me had a filing cabinet open and hanging files thrown to the floor then all of the sudden the filing cabinet was flung to the ground in anger. As I had my back turned it sounded as though someone was going through the filing cabinet.

In response to C Sycamore - go and see your local vicar for advice, he may be able to help get rid of this spirit and if he can't he will know someone who can, my sister had a similar problem in her house and like you was afraid people would laugh at her and think she is mad but when she went to see the vicar he was very helpful and arranged for someone to come to the house and she has not had a problem since.

My daughter keeps seeing this one ghost in particular and it is really scaring her. It first started with my eldest son who refused to go in my bedroom because he said there was a nasty man in there. It has left him alone and has moved from my room into their room and is really upsetting my daughter. She wont go to bed and when she does shes not asleep for long. She is so tired and keeps telling me there is a man in the bedroom. I want to go to the council to see if they will move us but i'm scared they will think i am making it up. Please can someone help.

The place I work is most definitely haunted. I work in a large nursing home in wxm and there are rumours of several ghosts but there is a lady who wanders around and she has been more active over the last few months. I have seen her 3 times now not only on my own - myself and a work mate saw her not long ago and we knew we were the only people in that part of the building. All I can say about her is that she has a white top or dress(you can't see the bottom of her) and has dark hair. She isn't scary she just takes you by suprise that's all.

I have many ghosts in my home, a randy ghost, my kids won't sleep alone, tickles on your back, being pushed, doors opening for you. Blowing down your ear whilst in bed. Someone crawling on my daughter's bedroom floor. A horrible black figure coming out the back bedroom floor. No one will sleep there. No one believes us.

Before reaching a decision about the Liverpool left handed rubber glove mystery, and to help me reach a decision regarding the authenticity of the story, could you confirm for me whether or not a one armed proctolgist had a practice next door?
