There have been reports of poltegist activity at the plumb centre on eccy road recently. It is getting more aggressive (locking doors, lights going on and off, kitchen being wrecked, things being thrown around) and we would like to know the reason behind this. Apparently it used to be a butchers and a man comitted suicide in there. Does anyone know if this is true or have any dates, etc?

where did you get this information from .. if you dont mind me asking...just curious as to who may have seen this...

From a friend...why are you worried?

My husband works at Walnut club above the plumb centre and several members of the staff there have been into the plumb centre to see for themselves what has been going on. Someone took some photos of the strange going ons. My husband has never believed in these kind of things but is now thoroughly convinced.

I remember it being a Co-Op supermarket in the 1970's. I don't remember it being a Fine Fare, but I could be wrong. Was definitely a supermarket though! :)

Perhaps the ghost was a socialist and is now doing his nut in what with all the posh toffs swanning it around the Walnut Club upstairs splashing money all over the place on champagne :-)

It was always a Co-op & this building replaced the previous Co-op building.

So apart from its a co-op its not a co-op its a fine fair???? is there anymore information in this ghostly activity? :huh:

Yes, it only happens after 2 in the afternoon, never before. It's weird that it's only just started happening recently. Does anyone know anyone who works there?

I've had an encounter with the real thing, and it certainly didn't work regular hours!!!!

There used to be more butchers shops on Ecclesall Road than any other road in Sheffield, so it probably was.

Our router has one of those big power brick things. It is plugged in behind a piece of furniture that has stock up against it. You can't get to the plug without moving the stock and the furniture.

One morning I had no internet access, and traced it to the fact that the router has come unplugged - the power brick was neatly placed next to the socket, but nothing had moved.

Equally strange was when a mirror fell off the wall. It landed much to far from where it was hung to be easily explained - a good 8 foot. A piece had broken off, but was with the rest of the mirror in the correct place -just 8 foot from where it had been.

This was all on Ecclesall Rd, and poses a problem for me as I don't believe in the paranormal - but I can't explain how either happened.

I have always been sceptical of this kind of thing. I personally have been into the plumb centre and seen the goings on. Yes anyone could have thrown stuff on the floor and opened draws ect. However on Monday I went in again and saw the mess of the kitchen (which I took pictures of) the hall, office and mens toilet. Myself and a member of staff started to clear this away when we were stopped by another member of staff shouting. We ran out to the show room where all the lights had gone off and the doors locked. We returned to the kitchen no more than 20 seconds later and it was an even worse mess than before. Cereal boxes were defying gravity hanging out of the cupboard!!! There were 3 people in the biulding..myself and 2 members of staff who were all together! Another incident happened Tuesday...the kitchen was turned upside down again we left the room, came back in a few moments later and the tap was running full blast and had saturated the work tops and floor.
I see there are comments on here about drunk people coming out of the Walnut Club......the plumb centre closes at 5pm!!!!!!
I am scepital but there are just things which are very strange to explain that have happened in there.

Also as we all know Halloween is approaching, but may I say that we were made aware of goings on 2 months ago

Try putting a camcorder in there or monitoring the CCTV, just to make sure someone is not playing tricks. If something happens again, you've then got proof one way or the other.

Suggest you get Most Haunted Team in (or someone similar) to sort it out. Also, if this only started about 2 months ago, did anything coincide with this? eg building work, refurbishment, new staff joining?

Snowman,

Know that people do strange things when sleepwalking. But sometimes things just cannot be explained. As mentioned previously, I used to live in a flat that was haunted. I kept having things fall off the top of the telly (small basket of dried flowers) which I thought was due to vibration. Then one evening when TV was switched off, I saw this basket turn a full circle on top of telly and then shoot off it sideways!! THAT was not caused by vibration, and it was not my imagination either!

Things were always disappearing, and reappearing in strange places, electrical things switching themselves on/off, and my exercise bike would start peddling on it's own. It was seriously strange!!!

Well we have to agree to differ. I just feel if Ghosts and Polergeist were out there doing stuff we would have got proper unquestionable evidence of it by now.

And at the time, I had the only keys.

I am married to a member of staff and have been down there nothing happened while i was there but my hubby is not the kind of bloke to run scared or make things up just for a laugh!

this is quite serious and for all you people mocking it is the reason i didnt put it on here in the first place!

I have contacted the bishop of sheffield who passed on a message to the priest that does excorsims in sheffield who rang me today so we could organise it, that is how serious it is now getting! We are now just waiting for the ecclesall parish priest to join with the other priest so this can be done with 2 of them.

Please dont poke fun or make jokes that you may find amusing at someone elses expense as there are people that work there really scared by all this.

I have also contacted the sheffield history society and know exactly what the building used to be and also what is was dating back to 1900.

But for those who would like to see a member of staff post im sure my hubby would come and post to you if you so wish

I wanted another member of staff to back up bambam81's post detailing an experience. The times given make it difficult for it to have been a hoaxer so was looking for a second opinion.

As someone who doesn't belive in Ghosts I think it's a mixture of slightly changing the details and a Hoaxer is behind it.

Might even be a new TV program being filmed and some staff are in on it. Bambam81 never explained why the other member of staff ran in screaming.

Well I'm not surprised folk are scared by all this!:o The question I would ask would be have there been any major changes to the building recently? or grounds? Any basements been disturbed.
Think what has happened, change wise, since these happenings began?

Obviously what ever has changed has upset someone and he's just trying to tell you, he/ she objects.

I know people keep thinking this is a hoaxer i even thought it myself when he started telling me but i can honestly say first hand there is no possible way this can be a hoaxer now. At first maybe but then when they saw how upset it is making some people they would have stopped. Even me contacting the bishop and things has not stopped it it is funny that things seem to happen after 2pm so i think i am gonna go down and have dinner with my hubby tomorrow and stick around and see if anything happens :o)

Why would you excorcise a ghost?? Surely you wanna try to communicate with it, ask it about life after death...?

What if, after you die, you are just hanging around watching people in the shower and other ghostly activities when BAM you accidently knock someones china plates over with your big ghost bum or something and they come excorcise you into the pits of hell?? Bit harsh dont you think.

Not really just hanging around tho is it it is scaring people and they have written messages to it and it has replied in very very faint handwriting to some of the messages and its not just "hanging" round for a laugh i dont think

sorry if my jokes upset you, I was just trying to lighten the atmosphere a bit. People can get really uptight about the whole ghost issue.

You certainly don't have to convince me, I've had more that one encounter of my own.

If you no anything about ghost you should no that if its not hurt anyone then leave it alone. if its just moving things and turning on lights then there aint a big problem. its if it start possesing people and bodys start going into a trance like state then u have a problem. :huh:
I am very intresting in these things and have been on many ghost hunting experiences and even tho there has been evil spirits there they have never hurt me. I think you should just leave it along. :hihi:

No work has been done to their actual building but about 3 doors down they are having some work done

The only actual thing that has changed is my hubby starting there which is quite scary as it may be him they dont like :confused:

LOL...this may well be the answer, usually ancient buriel ground gets disturbed or something changes that a spirit takes objection to.
Like you would'nt go round and paint someone elses house bright pink and change the doors and windows, without permission?

The saying Rest in Peace is to do with all this, if the spirit is not at peace, then they tend to let you know.
Obviously they can't do this easily and it takes a very old spirit to have learned to do poltergiest activity. They need a lot of energy to do this and it takes tens of years maybe hundreds to learn it.

I would tend to think, three doors down is actually the place the spirit is not happy with? He's coming to you as your the only folk who notice him and believe him.....Has your hubby ever attracted things like this before?
They may be using him as a sort of radio mast to communicate?:hihi:

I don't think it's actually connected to him and there's nothing to fear, cos it can't hurt you!

The excorcism is the best bet, as they know what they are doing, they prey for the sole to be at peace and open the door to the other side by chanting in Latin, so the spirit can pass back through and be at peace.
It's all about R.I.P, if you can convince the spirit to ugger off and leave you alone.

Middlewood Hospital before it got knocked down, was a security guard at the time...walking right round the building at hourly intervals.
Taking into concideration, the building was just a shell...ALL fixtures, fittings, pipes, floorboards, everything had been stripped.

Walking round, the dog stopped dead and refused to move, hackles up but nothing there...I heard a methodical CLINK clink CLINK coming from the building one end.
The sound was EXACTLY like some one bashing a metal cup against pipes.
BUT there's NO metal work in there?

Well I carried on, major puzzled, no -one there, yet heard metal clinking? Was'nt scared just intrigued and a little frustrated at not finding anyone my dog could get his teeth into...lol

Was later I found out off the NHS site boss that, that particular part of the building had been the secure mental ward, it had once housed the worst inmates and had indeed once had metal bars at each window.

How scary is that!!! Not really just the old inmates letting us know they were still there.
It was'nt as bad as going round the old mortuary of a night but never heard or saw anything there.
Woulkd'nt buy a house on that site either.

I was not taking the p, I was just stating that if the spirit aint hurt anyone then why should anyone try to get rid of him? If something happens and it scares anyone tell that person to politly ask the sprit to go away as it is scaring u. Sounds stupid i know but i does work. :P
If you think it would help then ask someone to come round from a local spiritalist church, the one at darnal maybe able to help. even if they just tell you who it is and why he is there.:thumbsup:

If you want to stop it then set up a camera in the kitchen. You'll either catch the hoaxer or they'll stop doing it. The reason you don't get videos of ghosts isn't because they are camera shy, it's because they don't exist. There is always a logical explanation and the more time you spend going down this route the more your fuelling the hoaxer to continue.

JS1984
23-10-2008, 07:59
snowman. You clearly have not got a clue, just because you have not seen it dont mean it does not exist. openen minded springs to mind. go and spend the night in the golden fleece in york and then tell me nothing exist? You will defo have a change of mind mate.

the snowman
23-10-2008, 08:02
JS, I'm clearly the one with a clue. If they want to stop it so much why not set a camera up? It was suggested early in the thread and ignored. I wonder why?

JS1984
23-10-2008, 08:03
why would that stop it? i dont understand. is it camera shy?

the snowman
23-10-2008, 08:06
The hoaxer will be camera shy. Notice how people come upon these changes but never see it happen, it's because there is someone doing it. You could just sit in the kitchen at 2pm and nothing will happen in there but will somewhere else.

23-10-2008, 08:11
I think snowman has a point. It's not about being sceptical - it's logic. The events that are happening here are extraordinary and should be caught on camera if possible. If someone told you the Loch Ness monster was likely to appear at a certain time you wouldn't go and buy a sketch book and pencil. There are a lot of people with HDD cameras that can capture hrs of film. It's not about "testing" people - I don't doubt what some people may be experiencing. It's simply that people, myself included, are interested in this stuff and would love to see evidence.

JS1984
23-10-2008, 08:14
its getting dull now, setting up a camera wont prove anything. and there has been things caught on camera maybe u just aint seen the real ones. Anyway it not about if they are real or not, someone is clearly scared and could do with people replying to help not been funny about it. Ive been in the sistuation and i no how scary it it.

the snowman
23-10-2008, 08:19
We aren't been funny about it and are making suggestions that will help. It's only getting dull because your being pushed towards admitting ghosts don't exist. Why are you so against setting up a camera? If you do belive in ghosts it would rule out it being a hoaxer in the least.

JS1984
23-10-2008, 08:33
im not against setting up cameras, thats not an issue im saying that even if they do set up cameras if very unlikely that it will make a difference. if its happening in the day the surely people can see there is nothing there. if u film at nite ur only likely to film orbs. I just think people really do over react and back to my original comment. If it aint hurting anyone then leave it alone.

As far as I remember the butchers was where Nonna's is now unless it was before then. Sorry I don't know anything about this but I like a good spook story!

I think you're right Saff, I remember the building being a Co-op, but the butcher's was a separate shop further up the road.

the snowman
23-10-2008, 08:43
if its happening in the day the surely people can see there is nothing there.

As said, it always happens behind closed doors. Noone actualy sees anything move, they just come upon it. So a camera would prove / disprove if it's a hoaxer.

I love this thread, you couldn't make this stuff up.

Very Good advice here...if it is someone messing about then you have evidence...if it's not you will be intrigued even more:hihi:

i would try Brenda Diskin too, she run's the Sheffield Paranormal society and the spootackula cafe' over at walkley. They do loads of vigils and investigate all sorts of buildings.

Anyone seen Derren Brown's stage show, or the "Seance" episode from Halloween a few years ago? He explains how ouija boards, automatic writing, spirit "possession" etc. works, it's basically all in the mind.

His "Messiah" show was good as well, think they repeated it quite recently. One of the things he demonstrates there is how he can do "cold reading" to make people believe that he's some sort of powerful medium, when he freely admits that he's not, and he doesn't actually believe in the supernatural at all.

As for me, I don't believe in it either - almost everyone has got some sort of camera these days, but nobody has ever captured verifiable or even half convincing footage of it. If they did then they could claim a million dollars from James Randi, see here (http://www.randi.org/joom/challenge-info.html).

I also believe that apparitions can be caused by a phenomenon known as "infrasound", which you can read about here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrasound#The_Ghost_in_the_Machine) on Wikipedia.

He devised a plan to see if Derek was deliberately deceiving the public.

While on a shoot at Bodmin gaol he invented a long-dead South African jailer called Kreed Kafer - an anagram of Derek Faker.

"I wrote the name down and asked another member of the crew to mention it to Derek before filming.

"I honestly didn't think Derek would take the bait. But during the filming he actually got possessed by my fictional character!"

The spirit has not hurt anybody just moving things turning things on and off locking doors that are unlockable without a key if you understand it has also written back to a couple of old questions they asked it before??

You think we have a shy little Casper. :hihi:

Casper has done stuff outside of the kitchen before and so if shy could carry on and work elswhere. A hoax would realise were onto them (more so if they are reading this thread) and do nothing worried there are more cameras not mentioned on here. But one day doesn't prove this as there are days nothing happens sometimes so thats why we need 3 or 4 days. Maybe Casper was seeing his Girlfriend today.

And where have the sf members who are staff or partners of staff gone? Where's todays update? If something happened today they surely would have posted. It must be a hoax and they have lost interest now the thread moved to the bored section and not in the main stream one.

I so wanted to go and meet Casper and be proved wrong :hihi:

Snowman,

know you are sceptic and all that, but I have to agree with you on this. Am starting to think it hoax too!

Other possibility is that Plumb Centre management have told staff etc 'not to discuss it'. Perhaps they think it's bad for business.

I also agree with Travel Agent, should be moved back to mainstream.

this thread is the best one yet. keep it going and dont let silly people kill it. :rant:

My sentiments entierly Jellybaby,I don't mind a joke, but the Polergeist chap (I'm assuming person was male) was taking things too far! That's why logged off in disgust yesterday pm.

Person obviously only logged on (note number of posts/location against name) to take the preverbial P. I tried telling him nicely to bog off, but he wasn't taking the hint!
the subject matter is hardly serious is it and your own posts have not all been relevant to the existence of the supernatural. Im looking at things from the ghost's point of view and tried to bring the thread back on topic with an earlier post, if you have a look.

Stroppy arn't we?

Yes, I did make some daft comments, which I explained were intended to lighten the situation a bit (and which I aplogised for). I also gave an account of my own personal experiences of a Poltergeist.

But, more to the point, I did not log myself on with the username Poltergeist. Which I think speaks for itself.

Subject closed.

That's a shame, perhaps you might have seen something to convince you one way or the other.

Wonder how long we have to wait to see if the clergy visit worked?

Can someone keep us posted on events?

Hi folks

Nothing has happened at all the vicar did go down with high management and an excorsism is taking place this week at night when the shop is closed. The 2 reasons i stopped posting on here is because 1 the mods must think this is a P** take and dont think its interesting enough to keep in the main field and to put it in the im bored section i find insulting!! 2 because we have idiots loggin on as poltergeists thinking it is funny and it just frustrated me a little. This is not a hoax thread nor has it ever been, the higher management have had calls from BBC radio sheff and the star and declined both to run with a story so if this was for business they would have welcomed them with open arms.

But thanks for all your support through this and hopefully it will all be over later in the week.

Not a rhetorical one either Merlina. what do you think? Is it beyond reason that "poltergeist" really was a manifestation of the entity from the Plumb Centre? I am no expert on the subject but cyberspace would seem a likely (ideal even) place for such an entity to communicate.

It could be (as mentioned by someone else and not wanting to steal their words) that management told them to stop posting and talking about it.

It could be an advertising gimmick that stopped once they weren't taken seriously.

It could be they found the Hoaxer and didn't want to come back and admit it.

Or Casper made a deal with them so he can haunt till his heart is contemp. :hihi:

TD, if poltergeist was someone from years gone by (as suggested), not sure they'd know what a computer looked like, never mind how to work one! More inclined to think that was someone taking P.

Although I have experienced a poltergeist firsthand. I am on this occasion, more inclined to prescribe to some of Snowmans theories, eg Hoxer, who has been caught out. Or as I said ealier, that Plumb Centre management have asked staff not to discuss it>

That's a shame then. I have no experience at all of ghosts but I quite like the idea that one might exist somewhere local and is willing to enter into some kind of relationship ...in good spirit - so to speak - especially if it is taking the P. :)
