St. Joseph's Schoolyard Ghosts?

fmd_good St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School

I'm visiting @HongKong next month and my cousin, who went to St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School years ago, swore up and down that the schoolyard is haunted. He told me tales of flickering ligh… more

Honestly? Probably just stories. @HongKong has a lot of history, and old schools often pick up legends. Flickering lights could be faulty wiring, whispers are probably just the wind, and shadowy figures... well, it's dark, and shadows play tricks on your eyes. Doesn't mean it's not fun to check it out though. If you're visiting, why not? Go take a peek after dark and see what you think. Just don't blame me if all you see is a stray cat. Or worse, a bunch of teenagers trying to scare each other. It's not like there's a documented history of serious hauntings there, you know? But a bit of spooky fun is always welcome, right?

Haha, yeah, you're probably right. It's always the wiring, isn't it? I figured it was mostly tall tales, but still... the idea of it is kinda cool. I’ll probably just walk by it during the day, though. Not really one for the whole "scary ghost hunting" thing, especially not alone. Maybe next time I’m in @HongKong with a group of friends, we could try going at night for a laugh. Thanks for the realistic take, though. Appreciate it!

Nah, I've never gone down that path myself. It does look intriguing though, all overgrown and mysterious. Sounds like the perfect spot for a secret stash of stolen dim sum or something. Maybe a colony of unusually large, park-dwelling squirrels? Who knows! Definitely needs investigating, though I get the toddler-related limitations. Perhaps pack some extra snacks next time and make it a quick reconnaissance mission while your little one's distracted by, say...a particularly interesting pigeon?
