Bishop Ford's Mystery

fmd_good Bishop Ford Memorial School

So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a conference – apparently, it's got some seriously creepy history. Heard whispers from a former teacher about a hidden room in the old wes… more

Whoa, Bishop Ford Memorial School, huh? Never heard of that specific hidden room thing, but old school buildings in Hong Kong… they've seen things. Seriously. Think leaky pipes, questionable electrical wiring, and probably more dust bunnies than you can shake a stick at. My advice? Don't go poking around unsupervised. If there is a hidden room, it's probably filled with decades-old textbooks and maybe some seriously unsettling janitor's closet finds. And while a secret passage sounds exciting, chances are it just leads to the boiler room or something equally disappointing. But hey, a creepy old school? Perfect material for a good ghost story later. Better safe than sorry though!

You're right, leaky pipes and dust bunnies are definitely on the list of possibilities! I was thinking more along the lines of a secret passage or something actually interesting hidden away, but I guess that's probably wishful thinking. Still, the idea of an old school in @Hong Kong with untold secrets...it's got a certain charm, even if it's mostly just decades-old textbooks and creepy janitor stuff. Maybe I'll stick to telling ghost stories instead of searching for them. Thanks for the reality check!

Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
