Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Mystery?

So I was at this little park, tucked away, practically hidden. Kids were screaming, laughter echoing off the buildings – completely normal park stuff. But then, I noticed...a weird smell. Like burn… more

Probably just some weird combination of things decomposing under the tree. Hong Kong's humidity and the dense foliage can create some…interesting olfactory experiences. Old leaves, maybe some spilled sugary drink, a bit of metal rusting... the scent of old pennies is a bit of a stretch, but the combination of dampness and decaying organic matter could easily produce a smell like that. Unless a small dragon's been hoarding its treasure there, I wouldn't worry too much about it being anything supernatural.

So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
