Not heard of that Fest, but I've been in the basement since the store closed, and I can quite believe it. It's probably the one area of the store that has changed the least since it opened. It was full of maintenance workshops, racks of tools and that sort of stuff. Didn't look to have been modernised since the store was built.The upper floors existed in a "shell" within the outer building. Between that and the exterior walls were a lot of older remnants.Paranormal, no. Atmospheric, yes.

Hi, i knew a lady who worked their for some years she always said it was haunted... apparently no one would want to go to the staff rooms on their own and if you did she said she always felt like she was not alone, when she was...spooky cannot remember her saying she had actually been touch cannot imagine that she would have stayed for a few years if she was...It wouldn't be right though for an old building in the centre of Leeds not to be haunted though would it...

There is a story and photo here:http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/w ... 3751539.jp Quote: Labourer Michael Scheres says he and a pal unwittingly snapped the spook while working on the old Lewis's building, in The Headrow.Michael, of Belle Isle, Leeds, said: "I could feel it had gone really cold, I was shivering and this feeling was shooting up and down my spine. Liam, the lad I was working with, took the picture. When he saved it came up with the ghost on. He nearly dropped the phone. I couldn't believe what I was seeing at first."
