The Diplomat Hotel - Haunted Places in the Philippines
Any list of Philippine Haunted Buildings won't be complete without Baguio City's Diplomat Hotel. It's so filled with ghosts that thrill -seekers consider it as a favorite destination. But let us explore first how it turned into a ghost building. During the early 20th century Dominicans built it to serve as a school monastery and finally as a summer retreat house.
Then at the height of WWII, Diplomat Hotel was badly attacked by the Japanese forces. Legend has it that several priest were killed by the Japanese at the hotel ground floor and somewhere in the second floor. It is said that babies were also mercilessly killed near the fountain. These horrific murders probably explain why a headless priest and chilling cries of an infant have frequented the abandoned hotel.
In 2012, however, the haunted building was finally renovated christened with a new name "The Baguio Dominican Heritage Hill and Nature Park." Whether the ghosts of Diplomat Hotel will remain or not is left for us to discover.
