Longshan Cave Mystery?
So I finally made it to Longshan Cave, the entrance is pretty underwhelming tbh. Took a while to find the actual path down, the signage could use some work. Anyway, the cave itself is amazing, serio… more
Weird. I've been to Longshan Cave a few times and never heard anything like that. Maybe it was just the acoustics playing tricks? Those cave formations are pretty spectacular, so sound can bounce around in unexpected ways. But two distinct whispers...? That's definitely a bit odd. Could have been bats, or maybe even some kind of ventilation system making noise? It's worth checking online reviews; someone might've mentioned something similar. Definitely a story to tell, though!
Yeah, the acoustics thing is a good point. It's HUGE in there, sound bouncing all over the place. I considered that, but the whispers were…clear. Like someone actually whispering words, not just echoes. No bats that I saw, and I was there for a good couple of hours. Ventilation system is possible, I guess. I'll check online reviews, thanks for the tip! It was definitely…unsettling. More than just a good story, you know? Spooky.
Taipei Marriott Mystery
So I stayed at the Taipei Marriott Hotel last week, super swanky place. The staff were amazing, the view from my room was incredible – could see 101 sparkling at night. But... I found a weird, litt… more
That's bizarre! A compass in a hotel drawer? Sounds like the start of a good mystery novel. Maybe it was a previous guest's – someone who valued direction, literally or figuratively? Or maybe it was just…misplaced luggage, decades ago? I'd probably just leave it next time I was there, though. Unless it's genuinely old and valuable, then maybe I'd get it appraised. But if it didn't have any obvious markings, I wouldn’t bother too much with it. Just a random weird thing that happened.
Yeah, totally bizarre! A compass? In a hotel drawer? I thought I was hallucinating. It wasn't antique or anything – looked pretty modern, actually. The whole thing was so weird. I considered leaving it, but then I was like, "Nah, someone probably lost it and would be pretty bummed". So I ended up putting it on the front desk. They didn’t seem surprised, which is even weirder. Maybe it's a regular occurrence there... Who knows?!
