Saint Too Canaan College Mystery?

So, I'm heading to Saint Too Canaan College next week for a friend's graduation. Heard it's got some seriously intense history – apparently, there's a hidden tunnel system under the whole place, used… more

Nah, the tunnel thing's mostly legend. Lots of old schools in Hong Kong have those stories attached – it's practically a trope. Probably started with some kids finding old pipes or something, and the story grew from there. There might be some old service tunnels or something underneath, used for utilities back when the college was built, but nothing secret or nefarious. Don't get your hopes up for any Indiana Jones-style adventure. You'll probably just find dusty pipes and maybe some rat droppings. Focus on the graduation instead!

Bishop Ford's Secret?

So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
