OT a bit...

Eh, there were rumours that the house is haunted. Did you see...errr...any other things? Didn't know it is open and people can walk into the rooms. Thought it was all locked up. Heard that construction workers tried to demolish the house but always failed. Also, got some workers died while trying to demolish it.

Well, may be another one of those silly rumours.

BTW, I stay in Punggol. Everyday will see the Matilda House =)

very cluttered. and what's the lalang stalk doing sticking out from the left side?
