"It can be because they have happy memories associated with a place but can also be because they disapprove of what is happening in the building or what the building is being used for."
The theatre's building manager, Andy Kirby has been witness to manifestations as have other members of staff which is now the extensively revamped venue for the Rawhide Comedy Club.
"There have been all sorts of things going on since we moved into the building last year and most of them have been put down to a spirit we call Les, who we think was an old caretaker who died here. Slamming doors, paint pots dropping from the fly floors and a strange smell that appears and disappears with no explanation."
