Haunted Theatres

Sorry Steve, Tim & others. I don't mean to knock your posts, experiances or endeavours.

But I'm a complete sceptic or peptic even when it's happened to me & write it off as easily explained!Although the last time it happened a few years ago, it did make me stop & think about the MacB'th bit of there being "more in heaven 'n earth - Horatio".

I was dropped of home in the late afternoon after working at Phoenix theatre all day, I had forgotten to take my house keys & had to wait on the back patio for my wife & son to come home.

I nodded off sitting at the table out the back, then woke up with a start, to find someone leaning over  peering at me face to face! I jumped up with a start & said 'Erh g'day who are you"?, he smiled & just stood there. My heart was in my gob & had no clue what to do other than to look at him for a fair while. After a few minutes he just acknowledged me with a wave & I'm sure he actualy left by evaporating through the asbestos dividing fence. I climbed up on the chair to check the other side of the fence & he was not there? Except for the women next door sitting in her wheelchair reading a magazine in the sun. I said hello to her then stopped myself explaining why I was looking over the top of the 6' fence, because I know it would have freeked her out.

I can still descibe the bod being of short skinny statue, oval face with dark short back & sdes hair,  how he was dressed in a scungy dark blue canvas shirt & shorts. So I sat down again & had a quick couple of blasts of my inhaler 'n another smoke or two to calm down.

Then it dawned on me I was a sleep at the time so I must have of been day dreamimg & a pathetic old fart!.
