Ghostly Sloss Furnace Encounter

So, some friends and I went to Sloss to have some fun. We split up when we got there.
We agreed that we would all get back to the meeting point at a certain time.

So I went to the furnace room. I walked around it for a while, climbing everything that was climbable. I was having a great time until I heard one of the furnace gates open up. I went to investigate, and it looked lit. So I went closer to examine it. As I was approaching the furnace, something knocked me down on my face and picked me up by my wrists and ankles. It began to swing me and preceded to throw me at the lit furnace, which was OPEN. Thankfully I still had the presence of mind to catch myself before I went in, but something tried to push me into the furnace once I got there. Apparently I was yelling or something, because as soon as my friends showed up everything stopped.

We left immediately.
