Tim Balderstone operates Stylus Records in Lichfield, a tiny record store in the former St Mary's Infants School on Minster Pool Walk.

His shop was one of only two in the region to take part in a special midnight opening to celebrate the launch of the new album Skeleta by Swedish rock band Ghost.

Stylus had stocks of the vinyl record as well as CDs and merchandise including sew-on patches, Ghost hats and more.

The band posted a list of record shops around the world that would be opening at midnight to sell their sixth studio album, including Stylus Records and Just Dropped In in Coventry.
