If there's somewhere that you didn't consider to be the perfect stomping ground for ghosts, it is a self storage unit. But if you think about it, there is something a bit spooky about a self storage unit. A bit like an empty garage, there are dark corners, cobwebs and flickering strip lights. Of course there are plenty of storage units that are well kept and anything but spooky, but for the purpose of this article, we want to give you a glimpse of the haunted side of storage… Sheffield & Mr Porter In Sheffield there is a well known self storage unit which is actually listed as one of the top ten haunted places in the whole city.
