The Old lift in mater hospital, used by staff, patients and visitors. It passes through the one of the older sections of the hospital, C Block, it’s mainly used to access 5C Oncology and 4C with a lot elderly patients, some with dementia. I worked there, in the kitchen, and when we collected the meal trays would take the large trolley down the old lift to the bottom floor. One evening I hopped into the lift, at 5C, walking backwards so the trolley was in front of me and noticed the lift was freezing. As it was an old lift, you could really feel the movement whenever someone walked into the lift, as it gave a slight bounce with the change of weight. I was rearranging items on the trolley so they wouldn’t fall, as the doors were closing, and then I heard the lift doors reopen and felt a bounce, as if someone joined the lift, I looked up to apologise about taking up most the space with the trolley, as the doors closed, but when I looked up there was no one there. It’s important to note I had hit the button to go to ground floor. At that point I had gotten goosebumps up my arms and as the lift went down it stopped at 4C, taking a moment longer than usual for the doors to open, when they did open there was the bounce as if someone had just walked out of the lift At that point I felt a chill walk up my spine and just spammed the door close button, wanting to get to the bottom floor and out of that damn lift. That had never happened to me in all the time I had worked there and it never happened again, with me leaving the next year. I spoke with the other staff in the kitchen and they all had a similar experience or other, some of them having worked for over 25 years at the hospital, even back when the nuns still worked as nurses in the hospital. In 2022 the hospital had reached 100 years of operation
