The management came to know about the paranormal activity captured on the camera when the CCTV camera stopped recording after 6:18 am in the morning. The spectre was caught just before the camera stopped working.

So, was the CCTV footage a real haunting or a publicity stunt? Perhaps it was some form of electrical glitch? However, the footage recorded on Valentine's Day shows a figure flicker in and out of view at around 6.18 a.m., after which the camera stopped filming. According to sources, Manager Tony Dooley said that a broken glass was also found on the floor.

It is said that the 'Ye Olde Man and Scythe' is already haunted by around 25 ghosts, which included James Stanley, the seventh Earl of Derby who was beheaded near the pub during the civil war in 1651.

There are also stories where people say that a woman committed suicide in the pub's cellar. The pub is also believed to be haunted by an eight-year-old girl and even a phantom dog.
