A blaze has broken out at the former Hellfire Club in north Manchester.
Firefighters raced to the former club - which was once a three-storey horror-themed bar - just after 7pm on Wednesday night. There they found a large quantity of rubbish and timber ablaze.
Three fire crews from Manchester Central, Blackley and Phillips Park attended the fire at the building on Queens Road, in Harpurhey.
Firefighters used breathing apparatus and hose reels to tackle the small blaze, which has since been extinguished.
Police also attended and Queens Road was partially closed for a short time.
A Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service spokesman said three crews were called to a fire at the building, on Queens Road.
"Crews attended a fire at the old Hellfire Club, which is now derelict," they said.
"We were called at 7.08pm and three crews were in attendance.
"They found a large quantity of rubbish and timber in the ground floor. The fire has since been put out.
"Firefighters used hose reels and breathing apparatus to tackle the fire."
It is not yet known how the blaze started, they added.
The now derelict red brick building was once home to a spooky themed restaurant and bar, complete with a dungeon.
It closed in 2014 but was re-opened again two years later and transformed into a burlesque club under the name Cirque Manchester.
