LYRIC THEATRE ;- WellingboroughLYRIC THEATRE
Midland Road
Wellingborough
Northamptonshire
Although this building was only constructed in 1935 the phantom that haunts it, is it seems, well authenticated and has been witnessed by many people. As usual it is difficult to identify. Some believe, somewhat irrationally, that it is of someone buried on the site, which was originally the graveyard of a Congregational Chapel. Other state that it is the ghost of a manager who got into financial difficulties and hung himself. Even more illogical is another tale concerning a soldier who was killed in the first world war but who lived in a cottage on part of the original site. Descriptions differ only slightly. Mrs. West saw it as, `A white shadow which moved from one side of the foyer balcony to another and then vanished`. Mrs. Mansfield who told the 'Evening Telegraph' of her experience in 1969, said that she saw it as `a white face` on two occasions in the same locality. In 1971 one or two customers whilst playing bingo were distracted from the game by seeing the same `white shape float across the balcony`. A few days later, night cleaners reported `weird and inexplicable tapping noise's somewhere on the balcony`- which would be an ideal site from which to hang oneself surely?
