Phantom footsteps, strange noises and screams in the exhibits of the British Museum indicate that your guards are listening.
According to a report published in The Sun, museum staff in London, home to more than eight million ancient objects, hear strange noises at night.
Some said the doors opened, fire alarms went off at midnight, and suddenly music was heard in the galleries of the British Museum.
Others say they have seen security camera footage of white light bullets on a staircase in the Great Hall of the Court.
There are also supernatural stories about the Parthenon sculptures, which were removed from the Parthenon in 1800. According to museum staff, the sculptures were heard crying when they were transported to the UK.
Some tourists reported seeing the ghost of a dwarf woman in the reflection of a display case that houses a 16th century mechanical galley.
The horror stories were compiled by artist Noah Angel, who spent four years talking to 50 employees about their experiences.
Perhaps the scariest story is that of Phil Hiri, who said he felt the temperature drop dramatically while he was in the Ancient Egypt gallery, where 19 mummies are on display. The guard, who worked at the museum for 29 years, said: “It was like walking in a freezer. My stomach clenched and I just wanted to get out. I think where one is buried, one should stay there and many of the mummies should return to their graves, “says Hiri.
The museum also houses the mummy of a priestess from the Amen-Ra temple known as the “unfortunate mummy”, which was donated to the British Museum in July 1889 and is “accused” of various disasters until the sinking of the Titanic.
