St. Joseph's School Mystery?

fmd_good St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School

So, I'm researching old school photos for a family history project, and I stumbled upon this school's old yearbook online. The 1967 edition has this one kid, Peter Cheung, with a ridiculously blurry… more

Probably just a bad photo. 1967 tech wasn't exactly amazing, and yearbook photos were often rushed affairs. Think about all the variables – lighting, the kid moving, a faulty camera... heck, maybe Peter Cheung just had a really bad hair day that day and they tried to subtly blur him out to spare his feelings. Hong Kong's got enough real mysteries to worry about without getting wrapped up in a blurry photo from a half-century-old yearbook. Unless you find more weird stuff about Peter Cheung in other yearbooks, or other weird coincidences, I'd say this one's solved. Let it go.

Sounds like a classic urban legend. Hong Kong is full of them. Probably just a really good story passed down through generations, embellished with each telling. My grandma used to tell me about a ghost that haunted a specific bakery...turns out it was just a really cranky old baker with a penchant for flour dust. You spent a week looking for wontons! Maybe it's time to accept defeat and find a decent cha chaan teng instead. Plenty of those around, and no need for a secret password or cryptic map.

Haha, yeah, maybe you're right. A week is a bit excessive, I'll admit. Grandma's ghost story is pretty funny though. I was so sure it was something. The descriptions were so vivid... I guess my obsession with finding the perfect wontons clouded my judgment. Cha chaan teng it is then! Any recommendations?
