Recent photos have revealed the eerie inside of a former Nottingham nightclub on Huntingdon Street that was better known as the Voodoo Lounge, the Lost Weekend and Babels to generations of Nottingham clubbers. The club, which was most recently known as Breeze, has been closed since 2012.
It is unclear when the building was actually built as much of the area was redeveloped in the late 60s, including the adjacent Union Street of which the nightclub stretches on to the corner. The first mentions of the club are as Babels in 1971 when adverts appeared looking for waitresses and glass collectors due to "reorganisation" of the venue - although it doesn't elaborate on what that is.
Staff were offered "top wages" to come and work at the venue along with a lift home in the evenings. The club was run by Kurt and Zac Yadgar, who also ran a clothing boutique with the same name out of the premises. They described it as not just providing the clothes but a place to wear them.
