Staff at the Barnsley Auction Centre in south Yorkshire assumed there had been a break-in when the cabinet was found open with glass all over the floor.
But after owner Danny Parker consulted the security camera footage, he was shocked to find that there was no evidence of anybody being in the building – and he is now considering the prospect that the auction house may be haunted.
‘It’s all a bit spooky really. The electrician had gone out for 10 minutes and locked the building because nobody was in there.
‘When he got back he stepped on the shards of glass and had no idea what had happened.’
‘He went all round the building trying to find someone but couldn’t find anyone. After looking at the CCTV frame by frame I saw the glass shatter.’
Despite checking all 16 of the building’s CCTV camera, Mr Parker still could not explain what happened and says he will be wary locking up on his own from now on.
‘I’ve never believed in ghosts before but this has really spooked me.’
just a couple of things regarding the cabinet smashing, we are not an auction, we are an antique centre, where people rent display cabinets and floor space to sell their own antiques and collectables, the cabinet that smashed was not an antique, it was maybe 10 years old and it was going to be rented out to display things in, the cabinet was empty at the time, and the door was also wide open, it didnt swing open like the papers are saying, we have it caught on 2 seperate cctv cameras, the other camera shows an even closer up video of it exploding. since this happened we have also caught a couple more weird things on cctv which are also unexplainable. so if any of the news writers are reading this can you please change the story, thank you.

I think that may be a recording of the screen which shows the footage, like in the second vid I just added, hence the unsteadiness.

Yeah if it's not a hoax, then the tools on the floor may suggest that someone was working on it, if it's old glass it really doesn't take much for it to break, especially if there is a tension load on it.
When I was a kid I barely touched an old glass pane in a door and it exploded in my face.
