Tak tat school

2 students formed a "Spiritual exploration team" to investigate a haunted school. Yesterday afternoon, the group went to Yuen Long Tat Tak School in Ping Shan following constant reports of the school being haunted. During their "exploration", a girl saw a female ghost in red dress in front of a tomb stone in the graveyard next to the school. After she told the team members, the whole group left the site and ran for 30 minutes. When the group were catching their breath, the girl suddenly started screaming and tried to strangle herself with her bare hands around her neck. Her team members tried to stop her from hurting herself, one of the boys was bitten by her. Two other girls also fainted at one stage and one girl had to be taken to hospital.

The "Spiritual exploration team" consists of 4 boys and 8 girls. Most of the team members are students from a secondary school in Tin Shui Wai. According to the team leader Ah Cheung, they heard that Tat Tak School which has been "abandoned" for over 20 years is haunted. They wanted to find out more about the rumors, hence they formed a team to investigate. Yesterday was the teacher's training day, there was no school. 12 of them met up at the entrance of Tat Tak School at 3:30pm. When they entered the school, they saw the ground was covered with weeds and a few stray dogs were circling around the campus. There were two tombs at the hillside next to the basketball court. They heard foot steps coming towards them, and then the foot steps seemed to have disappeared. A girl called Law suddenly saw a long hair girl dressed in red in front of the tomb stone. She asked the other team members if they saw her too, but they all said "No, didn't see it". The team members looked at each other in horror, they started running towards the entrance and left the school. About 30 minutes later when they reached Ping Shan light rail, they stopped to catch their breath. One member was shaking and said "Just now that one was dressed in white, not in red." When Law heard that, her face turned white, and she started screaming and put her hands around her own neck. The other team members tried to stop her hurting herself, Ah Cheung poured water at her hoping to wake her up, but Law started to bite his arm and scratched him. The team managed to calm her down and they called the police. Law then fainted and two other girls also fainted at that time. When Law came round, she said when she fainted, she saw images of many dead people.

Tat Tak School was founded in 1931, it was moved to that new site in 1974 but the school was closed in 1998. It was rumored that the school mistress dressed in red committed suicide in the girl's toilet, hence it became haunted. Some people say that in 1941 during the Japanese occupation, a large number of villagers were killed resisting the Japanese in Ping Shan, their remains were buried in a mass grave at the hillside next to the school.
