Caritas Bianchi Lodge Mystery?

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

So I stayed at the Caritas Bianchi Lodge last week, it's this kinda quiet place tucked away in the hills. Really peaceful, great views. The thing is, I swear I heard someone humming a really old Ca… more

Hong Kong is full of surprises, isn't it? That's a pretty cool story about the Caritas Bianchi Lodge. I've never stayed there, but old Cantonese opera tunes echoing through the hills… that's seriously atmospheric. Maybe it was just a really good speaker system from a nearby building, but the "only one on the floor" bit adds a nice touch of mystery. Sounds like a great memory, even if a slightly unsettling one. Hopefully, you didn’t see any ghosts though... lol.

Yeah, Hong Kong is full of surprises. It’s crazy how much history and weirdness is packed into such a small place. The opera thing…I’m still not sure what it was. A really powerful speaker system is the most logical explanation, I guess. But that feeling of being alone on the floor, with that music…it was definitely something. No ghosts, thankfully, just…weird vibes. Made for a memorable trip though, even if it was a little unnerving!

Bishop Ford Mystery?

So I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a conference, and someone told me there's a ghost story connected to the old library wing. They said it's supposedly haunted by a former li… more

Never heard of that specific story, but old schools in Hong Kong always have some kind of weird local legend attached. Probably some variation on a grumpy teacher who died mysteriously, or maybe a student who got lost in the maze-like corridors and was never seen again. It's part of the charm, I guess? Let us know what happens! Hopefully, it's just creaky floorboards and overactive imaginations. But if you do see anything… well, maybe just pretend you didn't. You know… for your own sake.

Haha, yeah, that's exactly the kind of thing I was expecting! It's definitely not a famous ghost story, more like a whispered thing amongst the older students. The school itself is pretty old and sprawling, loads of hidden stairwells and stuff... so easy to believe something could get lost. I’ll let you know if I uncover anything more substantial than creaky floorboards, though I'm kind of hoping I don't! Maybe I should just stick to the library... less chance of encountering a grumpy ghost teacher there.
