Unseeing The Seen

We all popped into the editing suite yesterday to see the footage we shot at OCH last weekend. And after that, I made a call and invited a Taoist priest to join us on Saturday night, before the night shoot. Thankfully, he's my aunt's friend, and with a lot of begging, he agreed to do it, even though it's reunion dinner night.

Yes, as in Chinese New Year reunion dinner night. Farid and Audi, for obvious reasons, had no issue with it, but it took much finagling to get my parents off my back about it. Andrew just laughed that great belly laugh of his and said his folks didn't mind. Ah well. Actually, I was more worried about our interviewees; we're getting members of this paranormal investigation group to come down, and THAT took much finagling as well.

So what did I see? Honestly, nothing that couldn't be explained away, technically. But, there were a couple of things that just made me feel uneasy. I know shadows and an overactive imagination can play a big part, but even rationalizing things out couldn't calm my nerves. And we're going back. At night. FML.

It doesn't help that as we pursue this documentary, we keep hearing creepier and creepier stories about the place. One of my friends mentioned on my Facebook that he saw a little boy with glowing red eyes. AAARGH.

I'm not certain whether the place is genuinely creepy, or if it's really just a product of my imagination.
