Today is another sad day in Moseley as it’s been announced that the Anderton Park Road Scarey Ghostly Ghost House (APRSGGH) is set to close its door once and for all. In the 80s APRSGGH was the place to go to have your bejesus scared out of you but lack of investment and an impenetrable acronym has meant a steady decline in relevance.

The erstwhile owner and manager Ken Scare told us yesterday “It’s a sad time for Moseley, in days gone by the only thing to do on a Saturday afternoon was to get some chips off Alan and then visit my creepy house. It in many ways its symptomatic of the fickle cynicism of youth and the decline of Scooby Doo as a cultural force.”

One of our Councillors told us (you decide which one) “Seeing another much loved resource close down is always sad. Unfortunately now when you walk down Anderton Park Road the only BOO you’ll hear is from someone jumping out of a bush.”

We hope that effort  can be put into finding some way of developing the site into luxury one bed flats for young professionals. Alternatively we could just leave it empty.
