Stranger Encounters presents: STORIES IN THE SHADOWS (Pearl's Hill Edition)
195 Pearl’s Hill Terrace, built 91 years ago in 1934 for the British Straits Settlement. This same building once housed a police headquarters during an era of unrest.
Tales have been told of daring escapes, tense stand-offs and lives forever changed within its walls. Whispers persist about strange happenings — footsteps when no one’s there, a shadow caught from the corner of an eye.
Gather round for a journey of encounters and affairs.
Feel. Trigger your imagination and vision. Enrapture yourself to tales of horror — our very own — right here in the place that saw it all.
And then, take it a step further: weave an ending that fits your story. Will it be chilling, uplifting, mysterious or bittersweet? The conclusion is yours to create and share with all of us on the spot. We dare you to do it!
Why come?
Immerse yourself in spooky storytelling
Walk the corridors some say are haunted
Take a risk and join in the telling of the tale
Limited spots.
