The site at No. 31 Granville Road in Hong Kong's Tsim Sha Tsui district was once an apartment building that became infamous for a murder committed within its walls. After the crime, the building developed an intense haunted reputation among residents and neighbors. People living in adjacent buildings reported hearing screaming from the property at night, seeing lights in windows of the vacant building, and feeling an oppressive, malevolent atmosphere emanating from the site. The building was eventually demolished, but the site continued to produce reports of supernatural phenomena — passersby describe cold spots on the pavement, an inexplicable feeling of dread when walking past, and occasional sightings of a figure in the ground-floor windows despite the building being gone. In Hong Kong's property market, buildings associated with violent death or supernatural activity are classified as 'haunted houses' (凶宅) and must be disclosed to potential buyers, significantly reducing their value. The Granville Road site's reputation has made it one of the most talked-about haunted addresses in Kowloon, demonstrating that in Hong Kong, even demolition cannot erase a building's supernatural history.
