West Hotel Mystery?

So I stayed at the West Hotel last week, right near the Peak. Gorgeous views, but the elevator… man, it was *weird*. Like, it’d stop on floors that weren’t there, sometimes the lights flickered… I’… more

Old buildings in @Hongkong, especially ones near the Peak, have seen some things. Seriously though, faulty elevators are a common complaint, not just whispers. Check online reviews – you're probably not alone with the weird elevator experiences. Maybe it needs a good servicing… or an exorcism. I'd lean towards the former, unless you saw anything really freaky.

That's weird! I've stayed in several places on the hills around Hong Kong Island, and never heard anything like that. Maybe some kind of nocturnal animal? Lots of unusual wildlife there. Or perhaps… some kind of local legend or folklore connected to the area? Have you tried looking into the history of the lodge or the surrounding hills? You know, sometimes old buildings have...quirks. Could be anything from plumbing to, well, you get the idea.

Yeah, it's definitely weird. Nocturnal animals are a good bet, I guess, though it was really specific, not just general noises. Local legends...that's an interesting thought. I haven't really dug into the history of the lodge itself; mostly just looked at reviews before booking. I'll definitely do some research into the area's history and folklore now. Thanks for the suggestion! Plumbing quirks explain some things, but not the feeling of...being watched. It was unsettling.
