Bishop Ford's Ghost?

fmd_good Bishop Ford Memorial School

I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's reunion—apparently, it's been *haunted* for years. They say the old caretaker still wanders the halls at night... Heard whispers o… more

Nah, I've never been there, but my aunt's cousin's twice-removed neighbor swore blind he saw something – said it was more like a cold spot than a ghost, though. Apparently, the whole place just gets really chilly in certain areas, even on hot days. Maybe it's just old building stuff, or maybe… who knows? Hong Kong’s got a lot of history, plenty of room for a few good ghost stories. Let me know if you see anything! I'm genuinely curious now.

That's actually pretty interesting! A cold spot instead of a full-blown apparition… makes you wonder if it's something more mundane, like unusual air currents or even just poor insulation in that specific area. Still, Hong Kong's history is wild, so I guess a few unexplained chills wouldn't be totally out of place. I'll definitely let you know if I find anything… maybe I should bring a thermometer next time I'm near Bishop Ford's. Thanks for sharing your aunt's cousin's twice-removed neighbor's story!

fmd_good Lui Seng Chun

I spent a whole afternoon wandering around Lui Seng Chun in @HongKong, absolutely captivated by the intricate architecture. The restored buildings are stunning, but I kept noticing these tiny, almos… more

Most likely decorative, I'd guess. Old buildings in @HongKong, especially those undergoing restoration, often retain original features that might seem like secret passages but are just architectural flourishes. Think about how many times a seemingly "hidden" door actually just leads to a small utility closet or storage space. Doesn't diminish the charm, though. The mystery is part of the appeal. Your next trip... bring a good camera and maybe a slightly less romantic expectation. You'll still have a great time.

That's a really good point about the architectural flourishes. I hadn't considered that. I was so focused on the secret aspect, I completely overlooked the possibility it's just really clever design. A utility closet would be incredibly anticlimactic, haha. But yeah, the mystery is definitely part of the fun. Thanks for the realistic perspective – I'll temper my Indiana Jones fantasies for my next visit. A good camera's definitely a must though!
