Devil's Bend (Old Upper Thomson Road)<\/h1>\r\n

Devil's Bend was the most challenging and dangerous part of the old Sembawang Circuit, where racers used to compete in the Singapore Grand Prix during from the 1960s to the early 1970s.\r\n\r\nThe Singapore Grand Prix was eventually ended due to a string of high-profile fatal accidents in the races over the years.\r\n\r\nIn 2008, two polytechnic students met their end when their car plunged into a ditch.\r\n\r\nThis stretch of the Old Upper Thomson Road is said to be haunted by the ghosts of the drivers who lost their lives to Devil's Bend. There have been numerous claims of supernatural sightings at Devil's Bend by thrill-seeking drivers. The bad visibility, mist and the looming ceiling of trees in the dead of night certainly lends itself well to the spooky ambience.\r\n\r\nWhat do you think?\r\n

South Buona Vista Road \/ Kent Ridge Park<\/h1>\r\n

The numerous sharp bends have claimed the lives of many racers.\r\n\r\nBut the real paranormal activity is said to happen at Kent Ridge Park where the fiercest of battles took place between Singapore's Malay Regiment and the Japanese Imperial Army during World War 2.\r\n\r\nFor the brave and the bold, you might just hear the roar of phantom cars racing by, or the ghostly screams of battle.\r\n

Old Choa Chu Kang Road<\/h1>\r\n
\"choa
http:\/\/www.oneshift.com\/showroom\/uploadimages\/resized-2015081073037864.jpg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nEvery taxi driver's \"favourite\" haunted road. Everyone's heard the stories of taxi drivers picking up lady passengers dressed in white or red asking to go to Choa Chu Kang cemetery and paying in hell notes.\r\n\r\nThis place consists of a Chinese, Muslim and Christian cemetery so if you're brave enough to visit, you might be lucky enough to gain a multi-cultural supernatural experience. As the saying goes, \"variety is the spice of life!\"\r\n\r\nIf you do end up giving an otherworldly entity a ride, just remember the old SAF saying passed down through the ages, \"act blur live longer\".\r\n

Mount Pleasant Road<\/h1>\r\n

https:\/\/remembersingapore.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/03\/mount-pleasant-road1.jpg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nArguably the head honcho of Singapore's haunted roads, Mount Pleasant Road is rife with rumours and word-of-mouth of supernatural happenings.\r\n\r\nFrom Bomohs and black magic to Pontianaks and dismembered body parts. Mount Pleasant Road is rumoured to have it all. Not to mention the Old Police Academy which is rumoured to have numerous hauntings on its grounds and Bukit Brown Cemetery.\r\n\r\nIf you're looking for an otherworldly experience, Mount Pleasant Road might be your best chance at that.\r\n\r\n \r\n

Netheravon Road<\/h1>\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\nThis famed road has kept its reputation no thanks to Old Changi Hospital that has been long abandoned and undeveloped. And for good reason: during the second World War, Japanese forces occupied the hospital and used it as a healthcare facility for prisoners of war. But rumour has it that it was used as a place of torture and 'medical procedures'.\r\n\r\nAlso doesn't help that it's super near Changi Beach which was the site where many were massacred.\r\n\r\nNeedless to say, this site is steeped with erm, history and visitors to the building after its official closure in the 90\u2019s claim to have heard screams coming from inside its walls. Others have also reported seeing shadows and apparitions lurking along the corridors and wards at night.\r\n\r\nThere have been calls for proposals to revamp the area, and a winning idea happened to be a plan to turn the place into a stargazing spot.<\/a> Will you be catching the stars.... or ghosts instead?\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nWhether you're a thrill seeker or a supernatural enthusiast, be sure to have some candy with you on Halloween if you're planning to explore these haunted roads. They might just take a treat and leave in peace.\r\n\r\nYou don't want to bring an extra passenger home ... or do you?\r\n\r\nDisclaimer: Carro always advises you to drive safely at a reasonable speed while you're out ghost-hunting.\r\n\r\nCheck our this list<\/a> of haunted places in Singapore if you're up for an extra high-level challenge!\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
