Mystery Hunter: The Old Blue Last

Hunting for ghost prostitutes lurking in the shadows of our pub.

This week VICE UK is celebrating its 10th year of existence, meaning we've managed to keep ourselves together for a whole decade without any massive disasters or the office collapsing in on itself. Because that's a pretty big achievement, we'll be throwing a huge party, reposting a bunch of the best articles we've published in that time, giving loads of free stuff away and providing you with a week-long special series of Shorties.

Shortly after establishing ourselves in Shoreditch ten years ago, we acquired the keys to the doors of former gangster and prostitute hang-out, The Old Blue Last. Nowadays, our pub is filled with people like you, spilling your drinks all over your androgynous frenemy's brand new knee-highs, but we every now and again we wonder; Whatever happened to the pub's old patrons? Could their souls still be lingering around the bar you so love to puke on, or have they all been pushed out of the area by the rising housing prices? We met a medium to find out if there is anything lurking in the shadows of our pub.
