I Wouldn't Go in There 不想去的詭地方
by Marcus Maurice
Urban explorer Robert Joe goes where many people are scared to go.
城市探險家羅伯.喬專門去很多人都害怕前往的地方。

  In 2011, eight students went to the abandoned Tat Tak School grounds in Hong Kong to see if it was really haunted. For years, there had been rumors of a former teacher that had committed suicide in one of the bathrooms, roaming the grounds as a ghost. Once they got near a gravestone, one of the students told the group that she saw a woman in a red dress coming toward them. They were all scared silly, so they ran away to the nearest train station. When they stopped to catch their breath, the girl in the group that had seen the ghost tried to strangle herself and bite the other students. Soon, she fainted, and when she woke up, things were back to normal.
  Robert Joe is a blogger and urban explorer, and likes to try and find out the untold stories behind haunted sites. He believes that every paranormal encounter can be explained, and the truth that he sometimes finds is even stranger than fiction. This month on National Geographic Channel, Joe treks to Tat Tak School in the series, I Wouldn't Go in There to see if it's really haunted.
  In another episode, Joe heads to one of Taiwan's top tourist attractions, Green Island. Many people are drawn there because of the hot springs and the beaches, but some locals say Green Island is haunted. Joe hears rumors about a headless ghost that had buried a treasure on the beach, and he vows to dig up the truth. Watch I Wouldn't Go in There to learn if Tat Tak really has ghosts and if Joe finds any gold on the beaches of Green Island.

不想去的詭地方
城市探險家羅伯.喬專門去很多人都害怕前往的地方。
  2011 年,有八位學生前往位於香港,且已荒廢的達德學校,想看看它是否真的鬧鬼。多年來一直有傳言說有一位前任老師在某間浴室裡自殺,之後就變成鬼魂在那裡徘徊遊蕩。當他們走到一座墓碑附近,有一位同學告訴大家,她看見一個身穿紅色洋裝的女人正朝他們走來。大家都嚇傻了,於是就逃向最近的火車站。當他們停下來喘口氣時,團隊裡之前看到鬼魂的那位女生竟試圖勒自己的脖子和咬其他學生。不久後,她就昏倒了,而當她醒來時,一切又恢復正常。
  羅伯.喬是一位部落客及城市探險家,他喜歡嘗試並找出那些鬧鬼的地方背後不為人知的故事。他相信每一件超自然的遭遇都能夠加以解釋,而且有時候他所發現的真相甚至比小說更加離奇。在本月國家地理頻道的《不想去的詭地方》系列節目中,喬千里迢迢前往達德學校,看看那裡是不是真的鬧鬼。
  在另外一集的節目中,喬前往臺灣最著名的旅遊景點之一:綠島。很多人因為當地的溫泉以及海灘而被吸引,但是有些當地人說綠島鬧鬼。喬聽到傳聞說有一個無頭鬼在海邊埋了寶藏,他就發誓要挖出真相。觀賞《不想去的詭地方》節目,看看達德學校是否真的鬧鬼,還有喬到底有沒有在綠島海邊發現金子吧。
