Mysterious ghost sightings reported at Sheffield museum
and live on Freeview channel 276
The building, in West Bar, now known as the National Emergency Services Museum, is said to be awash with mysterious shadows, strange moving objects and loud angry voices coming from empty rooms.
Visitors have reported regular cold spots and extreme drops in temperature inside the building - a former combined police and fire station which dates from 1900 - and the spirit of a young pickpocket is said to haunt the corridors.

Aside from liking to make his presence felt to the living, Cain is also said to be very willing to communicate with visiting mediums, even pointing out the cell which he once occupied.
According to the spirit, he was a prisoner in the cells for much of his life while the building was still a serving police station.
But he is quick to anger and become violent, particularly if people dare to enter his cell, and has been known to send glasses flying in fits of rage, and even attack visitors by hurling whatever objects he can get his ghostly hands on.
