1970: Sheffield's Haunted Nightclub | Nationwide | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive

"If you don't believe in ghosts, the explanation is simple - it's all a big con trick, just to get publicity for the club." Jack Pizzey reports from Sheffield, where rumour has it that one of the city's hottest nightspots is being pestered by a poltergeist. Even the club's normally unflappable bouncer, Big Derek was terrified in the presence of the restless spirit. What could be the source of this strange phenomenon? Could it be a manifestation of the dour spirit of Sheffield past, making its disapproval of this swinging modern Sheffield known?
