I used to work in a pub, parts of which dated back to 1104 and which had a licence to serve ales since 1248
Apparently it was haunted by the ghost of an old lady who smoked a pipe. All I can say is, she must have been a very shy old lady, as I never saw so much as a glimpse of her, and I used to be there very late at night (lock-ins went on for hours) on my own.

That's a truly frightening ghost story Emvee, it's just the way you tell 'em

If you're on your own, it's not a lock-in.
Probably means you're an alkie, though.

Did IQs drop sharply while I was away?
I had to close up the pub after I'd kicked all the lock-in people out because I worked there, remember? First sentence of the above post?

You're supposed to get cross with Rory, Emv.
He's your troll. I'm just endearingly witty.

Sorry, I thought you were being serious for a minute there
It's hard to tell when the people who usually respond to my posts are so dense you could use them for foundations

Terrible bullying of Rory, in this thread.
We should both get stepped.

It's weird how shy the undead seem to be
Statistically, if there were ghosts and ghouls someone's toilet would be haunted, and someone would have to suffer the indignity of having to share the room with a phantom whilst they were on the lavatory having a dump. Yet I have never heard this happens.

And they so rarely appear to large groups of people
In theory, pretty much every football ground in the country should be haunted. Yet you never see an apparition of a long dead footballing talent wandering around in front of 80,000 people (David Beckham playing abroad when he does play).
