    Basile doesnt just trip dancers, he trips anyone. He doesn’t come out only on the 16. Us workers see him about once a day. The “mop room” or broom closet used to be the kitchen. It’s an eerie feeling in there, like someone is always behind you. I’ve seen boxes move and paper towels be knocked down by some unseen force. The sinks in the new kitchen turn off and on by themselves. Just today the building was eerily on edge. Everyone felt something. Guests and servers or workers were cranky (I know that’s not very uncommon) but multiple times, servers with full trays slipped today, tripping over an unseen thing, all in the same spot.
