Southwark spooks with an ear for music

In the vibrant borough of Southwark, it would appear that the area's residents don't need to wait for Halloween to experience ghostly happenings. According to the London Fortean Society which has been taking an interest in south London's historic hauntings, Southwark is a surprisingly ghost-ridden area. However, as many of their reported accounts were overheard in the pub, this statement should probably be taken with a pinch of salt.

One of the hauntings featured on the Society's blog at Londonist.com has a surprisingly contemporary connection. Ghostly sightings have been reported in the studios of Resonance FM, a radio station based in a yard off Borough High Street. Presenters have reported seeing a shadow with angry, red-rimmed eyes and dark teeth, that apparently can't be written off as an old rock star dropping in after a night on the town. Perhaps this particular spook simply wanted to request a haunting melody?

"The other story has come from workers at art radio station Resonance FM which your Fortean Londoner has visited recently. Resonance is now based on a yard off Borough High Street, and the presenters confess to seeing a dark figure in the studio."
