The Diplomat Hotel (also known as the Dominican Hill Retreat House), a historic and reportedly haunted landmark located in Baguio City, Philippines.

History:

Original Use: Construction began in 1913, and the building was inaugurated in May 1915 as a vacation and retreat house for Dominican friars. It also briefly housed a school called Colegio Del Santissimo Rosario.

World War II:

During the war, the property was used as a camp for refugees but was later invaded and turned into the headquarters for the Japanese forces' secret police, the Kempeitai. This period was marked by brutal atrocities, including the tort*re, r*pe, and beheading of many inhabitants, nuns, and priests, which contributed significantly to its later reputation.

Hotel Conversion:

After sustaining extensive damage from American bombing in 1945, the structure was rebuilt in 1947 and then remodeled into the Diplomat Hotel in 1973. The hotel was managed by a famous faith healer named Tony Agpaoa and catered mostly to international guests seeking his alternative healing services.

Abandonment and Current Status:

Following Agpaoa's death in 1987, the hotel ceased operations and was left abandoned. The property suffered further damage in the 1990 Luzon earthquake. In 2005, the city government of Baguio acquired the property, renamed it the Dominican Heritage Hill and Nature Park, and declared it a National Historic Site in 2014. It is now a popular tourist attraction, an art center, and a venue for events, known for its scenic views and eerie ambiance.

Reputation:

The site is widely considered one of the most haunted places in the Philippines, with numerous stories of paranormal activity, including sightings of headless apparitions and disembodied screams or crying noises, believed to be the spirits of the war victims.
