Okay, it is time for me to share:

I worked at Mynt Ultralounge in 2006/2007 and the particular building it was in had a long and colorful history. It was right in front of the Pennylane mall and the building itself was 100 years old.

I have never personally had a ghostly experience in the nightclub but was working on the same day 2 people saw a ghost at the same time.

A Heneiken Liquor rep and the assistant manager were opening up the club and ventured down into the basement bar area to begin setting up the bar and the promo's. One particularly spooky cold spot was downstairs coat check. That area in particular was always cooler than most spots and it was very dark. It did however have a light switch was was placed in an unusual spot which was difficult to find if all the lights were turned off.

As the story was told to me, the assistant manager and Heneiken rep needed to get something out of the coach check room so to find the light switch, they both shone their cellphone camera's into the room and this is where Sh*T gets scary.

Sitting on the floor cross legged was a young creepy looking woman who blankly stared at them.
They both got the hell out of there.
I came in to work about 1 hour after this happened and saw both of them, and they were creeped right out. The Heneiken rep was crying as he recounted the story and the assistant manager just remained quiet.

They recounted their story and caused quite a stir with the employees. The coat check girl came in and when she heard the story, refused to work downstairs.

When the Heneiken rep gained his composure he went back downstairs and tried communicating with the ghost and felt that the ghost's expression was that of an overwhelming sense of sadness.

Now this is where the story gets interesting, one of the managers told us all that a young woman OD'd downstairs many years ago. It might have been called a different night club or during the time the current club first opened. Anyways, as he was there when it happened, he described that she was layed out on the floor unresponsive right in front of coat check and later was pronounced dead.

As a tried to delve deeper into this mystery, I talked to a few bus boys and bartenders and they all recounted their strange experiences working downstairs. One bar manager was smacked upside the head (playfully he claims) when he was alone downstairs and bending over to grab something in the DJ booth.

Light Bulbs would mysteriously burn out, new ones, and electricians would be called in to check the wiring which was always working fine.

I miss that building, sadly 8th avenue place now sits where the nightclub used to be.

I am always curious, where do ghosts go once the building they haunt gets torn down?
