Bishop Ford Mystery?

fmd_good Bishop Ford Memorial School

So, I'm planning a trip to @HongKong and stumbled upon this school, Bishop Ford Memorial School, while looking at old photos. The architecture looks insane, like something out of a movie. It’s said t… more

Whoa, Bishop Ford Memorial School? That's a seriously cool find. The architecture alone sounds worth a trip. I haven’t been inside, but old Hong Kong has a ton of spooky urban legends. You'll probably find more local whispers than official history. Maybe try posting on a local forum or Facebook group? Someone who grew up nearby might have some juicy details... or maybe a way to get a peek inside. Good luck, and be careful! Some things are better left undisturbed...

That's awesome advice, thanks! I hadn't thought of local forums. Spooky urban legends are totally my thing – the more obscure, the better. Getting a peek inside would be incredible, though I'm definitely not planning on trespassing or anything... Just admiring the architecture from the outside might be enough for now, haha. It's giving me serious "abandoned school movie" vibes, and I'm already making up stories in my head.

West Hotel Nightmare?

So, I'm heading to @HongKong next month and booked the West Hotel – reviews were mixed, but the price was right. My friend stayed there last year and swore it was haunted. Said he heard screaming in… more

Nah, my experience at the West Hotel was totally unremarkable. Bland, even. Maybe your friend's a bit… sensitive? Or maybe it was just a really, really bad night for the plumbing. Screaming? Probably just some overzealous karaoke downstairs. Elevators acting weird? Old buildings, man. They're quirky. Unless you start seeing floating orbs or something, I wouldn't sweat it. Just pack some earplugs, you'll be fine. Enjoy @HongKong!

Haha, yeah, maybe you're right. My friend is a bit dramatic. The plumbing thing was a real doozy though – a geyser in the bathroom, not just a leaky faucet. And the karaoke... well, let's just say it wasn't traditional Japanese ballads. Floating orbs? Nope, thankfully. Earplugs are definitely going on the packing list. Thanks for the reassurance!
