BAGUIO’S JAPANESE TUNNEL

A hidden network of secret tunnels spans underneath Baguio, the Philippines Summer capital. Part of this network (known as the Japanese Tunnel) has recently become accessible. But only to those brave enough to venture into its darkness. It was in these dark depths, meters beneath the floor of Baguio, that many of the city’s most disturbing events played out.

Baguio became a popular destination for many after the Philippines was declared as American territory. This made the city a target for the Japanese military during WWII.

The US military took swift action after discovering the Japanese had built this underground network, threatening their safety. They proceeded to bomb each entrance to the tunnel network. This saw many Japanese soldiers trapped inside, doomed to face death by starvation. Legend states that to avoid starvation, many of the soldiers committed suicide. Additionally, there are wilder rumors claiming some turned to cannibalism while attempting their unsuccessful escapes.

Today, only a small section of the tunnels can be accessed. Though this is a small section, it is said to be extremely haunted. Plagued by the ghosts of the once trapped Japanese soldiers who died within it. Some visitors have captured sight of apparitions, while others claim to have been touched, heard voices when no one is around, or even experienced a sudden onset of dread.
