The ghost of DFC 2009 Ltd?

The most bizarre event for me is probably more or less every home game since the Arena opened.

Perhaps a hunt for that ancient Indian burial ground that's been cursing us since we moved in there...

Dont forget the £40 includes a cuppa and a bacon buttie

Maybe they can have a Darlo win hunt, I would be willing to pay £40 to watch that.

fozzie · **Posted:** Thu Apr 12, 2012 6:38 pm

I heard about this the other day and thought surely no ones gonna pay for it. Unless they're gonna have stuff happen to freak out the people who go then its basically just going to be an expensive night at the arena with all the lights out.

I'm sure they won't let a small thing like no ghosts ruin their evening.

This is the arena though, the lights will be on 24/7!

I thought searching for ghosts would be better in the dark????? Very odd this one

Darlo4eva2012 · **Posted:** Thu Apr 12, 2012 7:15 pm

If they find any ghosts give them a football, they might get themselves a game next season

divas · **Posted:** Thu Apr 12, 2012 7:35 pm

Nice to see Wainy getting his retirement plans on track

Big Tim · **Posted:** Thu Apr 12, 2012 7:38 pm

Seriously though what's the point in this, it'll be a bigger waste of money than actually watching a match, Is the place even haunted??? cause I've never heard anything saying that it is.

MikeinBlack · **Posted:** Thu Apr 12, 2012 7:39 pm

The ghosts of seasons past?

Darlo4eva2012 · **Posted:** Thu Apr 12, 2012 7:40 pm

the hopes and dreams of several thousand fans have died their over the years

Mullet69 · **Posted:** Thu Apr 12, 2012 7:40 pm

Haunted no, cursed yes?!

I ain't going anywhere near any Darlo-related ghost hunts - I don't want to be there when the worms show up looking for vengeance.

"Has there ever been a George connected with this place?"

Oh, and Christophano, it's quite possible that - having been on one of these things at the Civic Theatre last year - no "ghosts" will turn up to enliven proceedings. Depending on who's doing it you could well end up sitting around for hours listening to the natural creaking of the stadium fixtures and fittings.

I was given free tickets to one once in an old building, found nothing what so ever but scared each other stupid in the process, wouldnt pay to go to one though

They'd probably start with the first letter.
"Does anyone know of anyone with a 'D' in their name?"

I can promise you, if I find myself in the afterlife and able to communicate, I won't be messing around with "My name starts with a 'C'" nonsense.

i took the mrs to one at morecambe winter gardens theatre, closed since 1977.

She loved it for all the seances and play acting that the hordes of eccentric lesbians were doing, i just used it as an excuse to go and have an explore of the place!

PS, surprisingly, fuck all happened, apart from as I said, play acting idiots hearing non existant voices.
