I have two stories. Both involve closing up at work. Both involve the same theater. I'll try to make them as brief as I can without sacrificing detail.

Story 1.

I had closed up all but one of our projection booths for the night. I along with another employee (Jim) who is a close friend of mine were waiting for the last theater to get out. Jim says he's going to go check theaters for change and loose items as he always does and I wait in the lobby. Jim comes back a few minutes later and asks me if I had shut down theater ten yet. I told him I did it an hour ago. He says that I must have missed a breaker because there was music playing in the theater. I told him I was pretty positive that I hadn't but would check it out anyway. Jim follows me and he says that it's odd because it sounds like it's only coming from one speaker and it's a song that doesn't play on the theater soundtrack.

We approach the theater and I begin to hear it. This theater is designed strangely in that when you walk in the screen is on your right. Because of the design there is a wall that prevents you from seeing the very back left of the theater. This is where the music was coming from. Not only was there music coming from that corner, but there had appeared to be somebody singing along with it. It was a female voice and could now be clearly heard. It was not coming from a speaker. Somebody was in there. We stood there and listened until the singing and the music stopped at the same time and we got the **** out of there. We waited in the lobby for somebody to come through the front door which was the only exit not locked by a fire door. Nobody came.

Story 2

This one happened to just me. I was going to lock up the same theater one night. I shut all the lights and breakers off and was exiting the theater, As I said before the screen is located to the right as you walk in, With all the lights off you can not see a thing once you walk about five feet towards the screen. It is pitch black. I was locking the booth door which is in the theater itself when I heard a noise. It was faint at first but grew louder and closer with each passing second. It sounded like either somebody pounding on the hollow wall with there fists as they are running towards me or sounded like somebody running up the isle with heavy boots...stomping. I didn't wait to find out because I booked it out of the theater. Again, nobody came through the exit doors.

I have no explanation of either of these two things. I don't really believe in ghosts but do know there are a lot of unexplained **** that happens to people. All I know is that I did not dream these things. They happened.
