I work in this really beautiful old building. It's a pub/restaurant inside the UK's biggest zoo.

First it was a tea merchant's house, then a duke's house, then it was a hospital in WW1 and the basement (which is now toilets) was used as a morgue for the dead soldiers

Today this little old woman was stood outside and we asked her if she was okay or needed help. She was like 98 years old. We invited her in and she said she used to be a servant in the house when she was a little girl. She said she used to live in a room in the attic (the window you can see at the very top of the middle bit of the building was her room), so we took her up there to look around it again, it was really weird/sweet.

So creeped out now that I know the basement was used as a morgue though! And apparently people see ghosts and stuff in it all the time. Never going down in that basement ever again...

It's really good! We just had baby tigers, a baby tapir, a baby giant anteater, baby sloths and we have okapis and red pandas and other awesome animals. You should go if the opporunity ever arises.

That is creepy.

When I started working in the building I work in, I felt a bit weird about the stair case to our canteen, there's a certain point on the stairs (about 6 stairs up) and I start feeling icy cold. There's no windows around and no holes for a draft (I've fully inspected lol). A colleague of mine told me that on the same stair case she can smell smoke, like there's a fire. We did a bit of research and it turns out in 1940 the road our shop was in was bombed and our shop was damaged because of it and 5 months after they finally cleared the debris a sailor's body was found, he had hidden in a doorway. Really creepy stuff. I love learning about the history of it though.

That building in the middle is now our shop.
