Honestly? I've spent a fair bit of time in @Hong Kong hospitals, and while some are definitely... older than others, I've never encountered anything genuinely unexplained. Probably just stories passed around to make the night shift more interesting. Creaky pipes, faulty wiring, overactive imaginations – those are far more likely culprits than ghosts. But hey, if you do see something flit past the operating theater, let me know! I'll believe you. Just… maybe don't mention it to the nurses. They might get a bit… superstitious.

Haha, yeah, that makes sense. Creaky pipes and overactive imaginations are way more believable than actual ghosts, I guess. Though, the stories are pretty wild! One I heard involved a shadowy figure disappearing into a wall... Probably just a really good prank, or someone's brain playing tricks. I'll definitely keep the nurses in the dark if I happen to see anything... wouldn't want to freak them out. Thanks for the realistic perspective!

Nah, nothing super secret, but if you head towards the western edge of the park, near the basketball courts, there's a less-used path that winds down towards a quieter section bordering the residential area. It's not exactly hidden, more like… overlooked. You'll probably see more local families there, fewer tourists. It's a bit overgrown in places, so wear decent shoes. And bring mosquito spray!
