The Bathroom Ghost That Put Our School on the Paranormal Map
A local primary school harbors a spooky secret. Older students claim to have seen a ghostly figure, a woman in white, roaming the old, unused bathrooms and hallways at night.
When I was a student at the town’s only primary school, I couldn’t have imagined that I’d one day be reminiscing about it in the same vein as one would recall a bad hangover after a particularly memorable evening. You know the type—fragments of recollection that haunt you in the most inconvenient moments. But that’s exactly how it feels as I think about one of the more sinister, yet oddly fascinating, stories from that crumbling institution.
The old school building itself was, and still is, one of those classical architectural paradoxes. It stubbornly refuses to die, clinging to its red-brick charm like an aging actor unwilling to bow out of the spotlight. Although the building’s layout has been more or less preserved over the years, they’ve done that thing where they try to make it modern by converting the bathrooms into classrooms. Yes, bathrooms into classrooms. Because, apparently, the best place to stimulate young minds is where old ones used to take a leak.
