Actors preparing for a performance in Nottingham's Galleries of Justice have been plagued by "ghostly appearances" during rehearsals. Desecration, a collaboration between theatre company Foolish People and events company Fright Nights, takes place next month. A number of performers claim to have witnessed paranormal activity in the 400-year-old building, reputed to be one of the most haunted places in Nottingham. Several say they have felt cold or sick and one claims to have seen a ghostly figure walking into an ancient cave system beneath the former court house. Martin Jeffrey, director of Fright Nights, said: "With so much history it's not surprising the performers have seen ghostly activity." Desecration takes place from Thursday to Sunday next week. During the two-hour performance, the audience is able to roam the courtrooms, prisons and caves and become part of the play.
