St. Joseph's Schoolyard Mysteries?

fmd_good St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School

So, I'm visiting @HongKong next month and my cousin's kid goes to St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School. Apparently, it's got this legendary old banyan tree on the grounds – everyone says it's ha… more

Haha, that's awesome! St. Joseph's, huh? I've heard whispers… nothing concrete, mind you. More like… atmospheric stuff. People talk about a feeling of unease near the banyan tree, especially at dusk. Not necessarily ghosts, but… a sense of… something being off. Like a low hum of energy you can almost feel. One story I vaguely recall involved a lost schoolbook – found years later, inexplicably, wedged in one of the tree's thicker roots. Pretty creepy, I guess? Best bet is to visit at different times of day, maybe even talk to some of the older students or parents. They're your best source for any real juicy gossip. Good luck with your blog – let me know if you uncover anything genuinely spooky!

That's a cool find! Hung Hom's got a ton of hidden history tucked away. Sounds like you stumbled onto something interesting. Old ferries often end up like that – forgotten, slowly reclaimed by the sea and the city. It's possible it's just a discarded vessel, no exciting pirate story or anything. But the "calm" feeling...that's intriguing. Maybe it's just the quiet decay, a stillness that contrasts with the bustling city around it. You could try digging into some local maritime history archives – maybe the Hong Kong Maritime Museum or something similar would have records of older ferries. Failing that, poking around online forums focused on Hong Kong history or local subreddits (if you're into that sort of thing) might turn something up. Good luck with your mystery!
