A man claims that his business, an automotive garage, is housing more than spare parts and old tires. Claims of poltergeist activity happening in the old garage were things to be taken with a grain of salt, Nick White thought. It wasn’t until he bought the old garage that he started to see and hear things that have since convinced him that ghosts inhabit the building.

This story rang a bell. It reminded me of “Pete the poltergeist” case. If you remember, I wrote a short post about an incident involving several witnesses seeing the ghost of a young boy in an old repair shop. It would throw rocks and bolts around in the garage. Check out “Pete the poltergeist” case.

A mechanic has claimed his garage is haunted by a ghost who likes to throw stones and coins at staff.

Nick White said the spectre has materialised several times in the building, which was originally a chapel and served as a makeshift mortuary during World War II.

He claimed it has moved around piles of tyres during the night while the garage, in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, was locked.

Two pre-war coins have also mysteriously turned up on the garage floor, and Mr White believes they were left by the ghosts, which has been seen wearing 1940s dress.

Mr White found the first of the old penny pieces, dated 1936 and bearing the image of George VI, when he arrived for work one day in February.

The second copper coin, dated 1938, was lying in almost the same spot when Mr White, 35, and one of his mechanics turned up at the depot in Doncaster last week.

Mr White said: ‘I took all the strange stories with a big pinch of salt when I bought the place. But I wouldn’t like to say it’s not true any more. There’s no logical explanation for the two old pennies turning up like they did. I wish there was.

‘It’s a little bit scary knowing that there’s something happening while the place is locked up at night.’

Previous owner Nigel Lee once called in a clergyman to perform an exorcism.

Mr White added: ‘Nigel told me all about the tyres being moved around when the place was locked up at night and customers witnessing small change and stones coming out of nowhere and flying here and there.

‘It’s all right being sceptical about these things, but I’m the owner of two very old pennies now, and I’d love to know where they came from.’
