Derby's new super-hospital is making a chaplain available following reports of a ghostly figure in the building.

Staff at Derby City General hospital, where a £334m building project is ongoing, have reportedly seen a mysterious apparition in the building.

Managers said they took information from staff seriously and were working with the chaplaincy to ease fears.

But they denied any suggestion that an exorcism or similar ceremony was being planned for the hospital.

The Reverend Canon Elaine Jones, an advisor to the bishop of Derby on the paranormal, said she had been asked to visit and investigate the claims.

My consultant told me about this story after Night Shift this morning. I had to find out about this myself.

No, I'm certain they haven't mistaken the apparition for me.

Please. It's just the owner of the old hospital in a white sheet, hoping to scare people into closing the new hospital. Have you never seen TV?

 

[WillsBabe]

I saw this on tv this morning - they had some wierd footage of some bizarre black figure. A bit freaky, actually.

 

[Mallory]

Was it seen entering and/or leaving the morgue?

 

[Jadzia]

Was it a surgical spirit?

No, that was me.

Was it a surgical spirit?

I think it was an amputee wth phantom limb.

maybe they should call the ghostbusters

no job too small no fee too big

 

[MadBaggins]

There's no such thing as ghusts. I can't believe they're wasting a chaplin's time on that.

 

[Miss Chicken]

What this hospital needs is to get the Winchester boys over to investigate. They could get rid of any ghost, no problem.

 

[Jadzia]

There's no such thing as ghusts. I can't believe they're wasting a chaplin's time on that.

I'm sure the chaplin will conclude it to be a possible haunting, and offer to do a basic ritual cleansing just to be on the safe side. And it won't cost very much.

Or for just a little more, you'll be offered a gold standard cleansing, complete with strobe lighting, industrial strength fans, levitating hospital beds, and a lawn sprayer.

(go for the gold standard cleansing)

 

[JNG]

Wow, imagine all the work to get a chaplain involved and make it go away as compared to, like, snapping a clear photograph and creating a Big Deal.

Nah, ths is the NHS we're talking about. Of course it'll be someone cheap and with a huge waiting list.

Like I said, the Winchester boys, they come cheap. I don't think they have ever charged for their services at all.

Do ghosts need to be gotten rid of? Why are they automatically unwelcome?

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

Because we fear what we don't understand.

 

[Amaris]

Zoinks!

J.

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

Quick, to the van!

 

[Zulu Romeo]

They're a bloody nuisance - substituting saline drips with blackcurrant juice, having lengthy discussions with the ultrasound probes, and painting funny faces on the comatose and intubated patients. The buggers.

It's just a cleaner going about their work.

But it's been so long since they've been sighted in the NHS, that I can understand the confusion...
