Alam natin na maraming magagandang pasyalan dito sa pilipinas ngunit lingid sa ating kaalaman na marami ring mga nakakatakot na lugar dito sa pilipinas gaya nalamang ng mga mababangit sa baba
1.Ozone Disco
Sa taong March 18,1996 ay isang malaking apoy ang tumupok sa disco na ito na nag resulta sa pagkamatay ng 160 katao at halos ang ilan pa dito ay mga teenagers.Hanggang sa ngayon ito parin ang tinutukoy na pinaka malalang sunog na na itala sa pilipinas.
17 taon nakakalipas ay nag lipana ang mga Sabi sabi na may mga nagpaparamdam nga daw sa abandonadong lugar na ito at ayon sa mga tao na malapit sa naturang lugar na iyon ay may mga naririnig daw silang mga malalakas na tugtog at sigaw ng mga Tao sa loob ng imprastrakturang ito lalo na sa tuwing sumasapit ang Gabi.
2.Malacañang Palace
Naging usap usapan non ng mga Tao dahil sa pag papakita di umano ng dating pangulong Manuel L. Quezon sa Malacañang.
Sinasabing hindi lang si ex president Manuel L. Quezon ang nag papakita dito sa Malacañang Palace kung hindi pati rin sila ex president Ramon Magsaysay,black lady of Mabini Hall,ghost of American chaplain named Father Brown at pati kapre malapit sa palace entrance.
3.Manila Film Center
Itinayo noong 1981,ang Manila Film Center ay kinilala bilang pinakamalaking libingan sa bansa.Ang legend nito ay nagsimula nang ang scaffolding ng upper floor nito ay nag collapse habang ginagawa ito.Ang ibang mga Tao dito ay namatay agad habang ang iba naman ay nagkaroon ng injuries.Dahil sa nalalapit na deadline nito ipinagutos ni Imelda Marcos na ilibing nalamang ng buhay ang ibang mga mangagawang na trap dito.
4.Clark Air Base Hospital
Sabi nila ang hospital daw ay daan patungo sa kabilang buhay.Hindi na nabubukod dito ang Clark Air Base Hospital sa Angeles City,Pampanga dahil narin sa daan daang ghost stories dito.In fact sinabi narin ng Ghost Hunters International na isa ang C.A.B.H sa pinaka nakakatakot na lugar sa buong mundo at ito rin ang may pinakamaraming dokyumento ng ghost sighthings rangings from violent spirit voices to mysterious shadows lurking in the corners.
5.Diplomat Hotel
Hindi makokompleto ang Philippine Haunted Buildings kung wala ang Bagiuo City’s Diplomat Hotel.Dahil narin nga sa dami ng multong namamahay dito thrill-seekers considered it as a favorite destination.
During the early 20th century ipinatayo ng mga Dominicans ang Diplomat Hotel upang magsilbing paaralan,monesteryo at summer retreat house.Ngunit sa pag dating ng WWll ang Diplomat Hotel ay intake ng mga Japanese Forces.Sinasabing several priest were killed by the Japanese at the hotel grand floor at sa second floor naman ay walang awang pinag papatay rin ang mga babies dito na malapit sa fountain.Ang mga nakakatakot na pag patay na ito ay nagsilbing paliwanag kung bakit may mga nagpapakitang mga paring walang ulo dito at mga batang umiiyak dito sa abandonadong hotel na ito.
Top 5 Haunted Places in the Philippines
Alam natin na maraming magagandang pasyalan sa ating bansang pilipinas pero lingid sa ating mga kaalaman na mayroon din ang pilipinas ng mga pinaka nakakatakot na lugar na hindi masyadong nirerekomenda sa mga Tao lalo na kung ikaw ay matatakutin.Ito ang limang pinaka nakakatakot na lugar sa Pilipinas.
1.Malacañang Palace
Malacañang Palace is a silent witness to those glorious days that have shaped our history. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that this building has plenty of spooky stories to tell–including the ghost of no less than President Manuel L. Quezon.
Rumor has it that after Imee Marcos had a vision of Quezon in the study room, the late President Marcos sought the help of paranormal experts. Employees and residents also reported sightings of President Ramon Magsaysay and other mysterious entities including the black lady of Mabini Hall, ghost of American chaplain named Father Brown and even a kapre near the Palace’s state entrance
2.Ozone Disco
On March 18, 1996, massive flames engulfed Ozone Disco, killing 160 people–mostly teenagers– while leaving the other 95 injured. To this day, it remains as the worst fire accident in Philippine history.Seventeen years later, the horror of that fateful night literally echoes back from Ozone’s old, dirty walls. Terrified witnesses claim to have heard heavy beat of music and muffled voices coming from the abandoned building. There are also reported sightings of ghostly figures dancing in the moonlight–a grim reminder of Ozone’s lively past.
3.Manila Film Center
Built in 1981, Manila Film Center has been dubbed as the country’s largest tomb. Thelegend started when a scaffolding of the upper floor collapsed during the height of its construction. Some people died instantly while others suffered injuries. Threatened by an impending deadline, Imelda Marcos reportedly ordered some of the trapped workers to be buried alive. Or so the story goes.

Fortunately, the building was completed in time for the 1982 Manila International Film Festival. But since then, furious ghosts have refused to keep silent. In a 2005 documentary, Howie Severino confirmed that all 169 workers were traced and not more than a dozen died from the accident. Still, a hair-raising atmosphere at Manila Film Center is always ready to welcome those who dare to enter it.
4.Clark Air Base Hospital
Hospitals are said to be gateways leading to the afterlife. Clark Air Base Hospital in Angeles City, Pampanga is no exception. But if hundreds of ghost stories are to be believed, this abandoned hospital will surely make your knees tremble. In fact, Ghost Hunters International has dubbed it as “one of the most haunted places in the world.” It also has the most documented ghost sightings ranging from violent spirit voices to mysterious shadows lurking in the corners.
By reviewing its history, it should not come as a surprise why it has been haunted by restless spirits. During the WWII, Clark Air Base Hospital served as a haven for wounded and dying American soldiers. Its frightening reputation was featured in National Geographic Channel’s docu-series aptly titled “I Wouldn’t Go In There.”
5.The Diplomat Hotel
Introduce Yourself (Example Post)
This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.
You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.
Why do this?
- Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
- Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.
The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.
To help you get started, here are a few questions:
- Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
- What topics do you think you’ll write about?
- Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
- If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?
You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.
Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.
When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
