from You Can't Unhear · host Ericka Cuevas
Hidden in the heart of Beijing stands Chaonei No. 81, an abandoned French Baroque mansion often called China's most haunted house. For decades, locals have reported hearing a woman crying inside the empty building, seeing mysterious figures in its second-floor windows, and experiencing unexplained encounters while exploring its abandoned halls. Although many of the most famous ghost stories surrounding the mansion have been debunked, the building's true history remains just as unsettling.In this episode of You Can't Unhear, we explore the chilling legend of Chaonei No. 81, the viral urban explorer accounts, the mysterious disappearance of the building's last known resident, the terrifying stories surrounding its attempted demolition and renovation, and why one of Beijing's most valuable properties sat abandoned for more than half a century. Is China's most haunted house simply the product of folklore... or is there still something waiting inside?
