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?
