BAGUIO CITY: The city had been host to several documentaries on ghost hunting and research on the ghostly that have become part of urban legends—the eerie white house along Leonard Wood road, the scary accounts about an apparition of a lady who hangs around the stretch of the Loakan road near Camp John Hay and its adjacent cemetery of unknown men and soldiers, and Mirador Hotel, abandoned by human occupants but haunted by ghosts.

A lady in white haunts a stretch of Loakan road, that most drivers plying the route remember spine-tingling instances whenever the apparition time crosses the path. One crossing triggered a fatal vehicular accident, with the lady that vanishes in the mist taking the blame. Some taxicab drivers point to instances when that mysterious lady would hail a cab from other parts of the city and ask to be taken to that haunted stretch of Loakan road.

The white house along Leonard Wood road still stands magnificently despite decades of not being attended—but ghosts, as urban legends have it, now dwell there. Accounts also describe eerie sounds being heard if you happen to pass along this house.

Another frightening spot in Baguio City is Mirador Hotel that had been the site of a monastery during the Spanish era towards the invasion of the Japanese imperial army. Many deaths occurred on this site that has since transformed the hotel into a strange tourist attraction.

One tourist from Manila, only identified as Shiela, 21 and four of her friends have a late afternoon picture-taking at Mirador Hotel’s back for a better view of the sunset over the China Sea in La Union province .

Shiela said that after their picture taking, she and one of her friend Danille said that they noticed a man in”priestly attire” ascending the broken stairs of the building.

“We just noticed that it’s a like a priest pero we hardly identified him because of the fog. We immediately left the place kasi natakot kami pero a guard said guni-guni lang daw namin ‘yun,” Shiela said.

In nearby “little kibungan” in barangay Buyagan, La Trinidad, Benguet residents claimed that a during the first commemoration of the tragedy that killed almost 78 persons including children, they heard cries of people who have been killed in that fateful landslide of the “little Kibungan”.
