Huguang Huiguan was haunted since it was built on an ancient graveyard. During the Republic of China period, a rich philanthropist decided to build a home for the poor on the site but employed a janitor who was so disfigured by leprosy that even the dead couldn’t bear to see him. But now it is an opera museum holding regular performances. Rumor has it that if you throw a stone into the courtyard, loud scolding will be heard, yet there is no one there.

Address: Huguang Huiguan Hufang Bridge, Xuanwu district. Beijing.
