Ballarat Theatre - Louise's Ghostly voice In 2003 I was performing in a One Act Play Festival at Her Majesty's Theatre in Ballarat. I was in one of the bottom dressing rooms just finishing up my makeup, when I realised I was alone and was about due on stage. I started to walk up the stairs to go to the stage when I suddenly felt very cold. I then heard somebody say my name "Louise" as clear as day. I turned and looked down the stairs as I thought one of the cast members was maybe behind me. There was no one there. I then started to walk up the stairs and it happened again. It was so clear. I didnt hang around this time, I bolted up the stairs as the hairs were up on the back of my neck and I felt really scared. By the time I got to the top of the stairs and with the rest of the cast I felt terrified. The whole cast was there and there was no-one who could have possibly said my name on the stairs. I spoke to one of the ushers at the theatre after the event and she said that the theatre is haunted by a female and she likes to watch some performances. But she has never been known to frequent backstage or the dressing room area. Submitted by Louise 26 August 2005 |
