Mystery of art gallery's ghostly stair cleaner

Just a little something for your mid-week reading...

MYSTERY surrounds the soaking wet stairs at the Dock Art Gallery.
Artists and staff at the former Goole Steam Shipping Company's office in
St John's Street first noticed a wet mark on the stairs one day last
summer, a mark that rapidly expanded to cover almost all the staircase
in the three-storey building. "It was as though someone had started
cleaning down the stairs," said artist Mrs Pauline Scott, adding that an
hour later her husband, Peter, thought all of the staircase had been
cleaned from top to bottom by someone with more than a few buckets of
water, who then hadn't done a very enthusiastic mopping up job
afterwards.
Other artists and staff at the Dock Gallery who had also seen the
mysterious stair-cleaning had assumed that someone else was responsible,
until questions were asked. Mrs Scott said that no one was saying that
the building was actually haunted, although one worker had thought she
was being watched when alone in one of the first floor galleries - an
eerie feeling that Mrs Scott said she also experienced in the same part
of the building.
She added that the building was constructed around 1906 and was the
Goole Steam Shipping Company's and Associated Humber Lines' office for
many years, but there had been no reports, as far as she was aware, of
previous strange happenings.
