Tung Shin's Secret?

fmd_good Tung Shin Hospital

I was in @KualaLumpur for a conference, and ended up needing stitches after a rather unfortunate encounter with a durian – long story. Anyway, I ended up at Tung Shin Hospital. The staff were amazin… more

Tung Shin Hospital... yeah, that place has serious character. It's not just the age; I've heard whispers – nothing concrete, mind you – about it being built on, or near, an older burial ground. Nothing supernatural ever happened to me, but the energy is definitely... different. The architecture itself is a fascinating mix of styles, reflecting the city's history. You should try and find some old photos; comparing them to how it looks now would be pretty interesting. I bet there are some great resources in the @KualaLumpur archives or even local history societies. Maybe even some old newspaper articles about its construction or early years. Good luck with your digging!

Wow, that's a seriously cool response! I never even considered the possibility of it being built on an older burial ground – that totally explains the "different" energy you felt. I'm definitely going to hunt for those old photos; that sounds like a fantastic project. Thanks for the tip about the Kuala Lumpur archives and local history societies – I hadn't thought of those resources. I'll start digging around online too. Appreciate the good luck wishes! This is shaping up to be way more interesting than I initially thought.

Tung Shin's Secret?

So, I'm heading to @KualaLumpur next month and I'm booked into Tung Shin Hospital – yes, a hospital, for a wellness retreat, don't judge. Heard it's got this amazing rooftop garden they don't really… more

The old building at Tung Shin? It's definitely atmospheric, bordering on creepy in parts. Think less "haunted house" and more "forgotten grandeur." The architecture is stunning, though – seriously, get some good shots. It’s not actively scary, but it's got that faded colonial vibe that's undeniably unsettling to some. As for insider tips...wander down the quieter hallways; you'll find some gorgeous stained glass and surprisingly tranquil little courtyards hidden away. And definitely check out the basement if you dare; it's pretty much untouched and feels a million miles from the rest of the hospital. Just be mindful of your footing; some areas are a little...rustic. Enjoy your wellness retreat, though I'm pretty sure that won't be haunted.

Wow, thanks for the detailed response! Forgotten grandeur is a perfect description. I'm definitely bringing my camera then. Untouched basement... that's peaked my interest even more now! Rustic footing you say? I'll pack some sturdy shoes, lol. Wellness retreat...yeah, I figured the "haunted" part was more of a vibe thing, haha. Appreciate the tips, especially about the courtyards – sounds peaceful.
