In the early 20th century, Shouson Hill was used as a sentry post and bunker for the Beitish troops. This area was essential for the troops to keep an eye on Deep Water Bay, Aberdeen, and the area that is now occupied by Ocean Park. However, when the Japanese came to Hong Kong, locals were forced to evacuate the area to avoid air assault. There are air raid shelters and bunkers embedded all over the hill. Nowadays, most of the bunkers have been torn down or renovated to accommodate the wealthy but there are still some areas that have not been touched as they are believed to be haunted with the ghosts of soldiers that died in battle against the Japanese.
This is particularly (Charlotte) as I live in the U.S. Consulate housing complex on Shouson Hill. Nothing too strange or ominous has happened to me or my family while I've lived here, but I have heard stories from other tenants from elsewhere on the hill. For example, one family friend had seen a particular spirit in one of the properties of Shouson Hill Road East, and domestic helpers had also reportedly seen a spirit with the same appearance. Now, I don't know if this is someone playing a prank or a result of mob mentality but it was pretty creepy hearing about it nonetheless.
