Clark Air Force Base is the largest U.S. military base overseas, located in angelic city Angels on the Philippine island of Luzon. The military base is rife with frequent hauntings, which are concentrated in Clark Hospital, which has become an abandoned, deserted, unused building since the evacuation of U.S. troops after a nearby volcanic eruption in 1993.
Clark Hospital during the Vietnam War
Since Clark Hospital was abandoned, local residents have always heard the sound of prayers coming from the hospital in the early morning, or "Save me" in the middle of the night.
Clark Air Force Base is the most important logistics support base for the US military during the Vietnam War, the base is fully equipped with personnel, some important wounded in the War against Vietnam were sent to Clark Base Hospital, because the number of US casualties during the war was huge, the hospital layer once entered overload operation, but some wounded people did not receive timely treatment and died in the hospital.
Famous urban explorer, director and screenwriter Robert. Joe visits clark's U.S. military base for hauntings, and he was the first to interview Raymond, an avant-garde security guard at Clark Hospital during the Vietnam War. Tagro, security Tagro was one of the parties who witnessed the haunting.
According to Tagro, the incident took place one day in 1973, during the hospital's busiest phase during the Vietnam War. One night he was on duty at night, and when he patrolled to the first floor and the entrance to the basement, he heard unusual footsteps, so he came alone to the basement entrance with the source of the sound. The basement is the morgue of the hospital, which is piled up with the bodies of all kinds of wounded and sick people, many of whom are soldiers and war medical personnel.
Abandoned Clark Hospital
When Tagro searched for the source of the sound, he did not find any figures at first, and it was late at night when all the medical staff had not entered the morgue. This made him suspicious, so he had the courage to enter the basement of the morgue, the basement corridor was not lit, the empty corridor emitted a smell of corpses and drugs, and at the same time emitted a gloomy and cold atmosphere that made people shiver from time to time.
Tagro searched the whole morgue and found nothing wrong, just as he was about to return, a tall soldier stopped his way, according to his description of this soldier about 1.8 meters tall, clothing for the U.S. military during the Vietnam War at that time, the badge and badge are clearly recognizable, the armband star flag and the five-pointed star are particularly conspicuous in the flashlight, it is obviously an authentic American soldier.
Tagro's heart was about to jump out of his throat, and when he trembled and shined the flashlight on the other party's face, he found that almost the entire face was blurred with blood and flesh, and the blood stains on the uniform were exactly the same as when they had just entered the hospital, and there were many such soldier morgues, most of which were the corpses of soldiers who had died before entering the hospital, and were sent directly to the morgue for post-processing.

Tagro's cold sweat flowed from his head to his feet, so frightened that he couldn't even make a sound.
"Brother, are there cigarettes"? A muffled sound like from hell, Tagros could understand the American language.
Tagro took out a cigarette and handed it to the other party, then took out a lighter to help him light the cigarette, the soldier took a deep breath of the cigarette and then spat out a cloud of blue smoke like a weight, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye, and even the cigarette just now disappeared.
Tagro was so frightened that he ran back desperately until he heard the footsteps of his colleagues and told them that they had encountered a ghost. The colleague felt strange and went back to the place where they had just encountered the ghost, and then searched for the entire morgue and found no abnormality.
Since this incident, no one has dared to go to the basement of the hospital every night, and many people say that in the middle of the night, the voice of "help, save me" will come from the morgue.
The haunted land of Clark Hospital
Robert. Joe is an atheist with a keen interest in supernatural events and loves to explore them, so he goes to the hospital alone to explore the haunted land that has long been rumored.
Clark Hospital was completed in 1964 at a cost of $5 million and was the largest building on the site at the time. The hospital sits deep in the dense forest outside the town of Angels, the city of Angels, and few people go anywhere after being abandoned.
Robert. Joe travels in private transport and talks to the owner of the house about the haunting, who is apparently convinced of the haunting and tells him more about the haunting of the base.
Private car owners will robert. Joe was reluctant to enter the hospital site after being delivered to the place and quickly left there.
Robert. Joe walked into the long-abandoned, dilapidated building, which was left with only a relatively complete cement frame, and all the decorative materials were gone, making it difficult to see that it was once a busy hospital ambulance place. Except for the dilapidated cement walls, the walls of the building are dirt and dust, which does not make people think of being related to haunted events. The walls are covered with paintings, and the building is empty, with four floors above ground and one underground.
Clark Hospital Underground Morgue
Robert. Joe went from the first floor to the fourth floor, then to the roof, photographed the surrounding environment and left a message, he felt that there must have been many incredible events before this hospital.
After that time, Robert. Joe decides to visit the basement morgue where the security guard Tagro encounters a ghost, and Tagro agrees to accompany him on the tour.
The two entered the basement and came to the entrance of the corridor, and Tagro pointed to the place where he had seen the ghosts of the American soldiers, still feeling frightened, although it was empty now, but it was even more terrifying. The space inside the morgue is even more creepy, and Tagro says there will be some weird noises inside that he'll always hear when he goes in, so he decides not to accompany Robert. Joe entered the inner space of the morgue.
Robert. Joe entered the morgue alone with a flashlight, a dark air inside emitted a musty smell, the more he went inside, the more he felt cold, the hair on his body would naturally stand up, and the eerie cold breath came to his face.
Robert. Joe walked slowly down the passage, and as the flashlight shone around, more clutter came into view, the walls were full of messy English alphabet slogans, and the ground was a mess of leftover garbage, and it could be seen that no one had patronized this place for a long time.
Suddenly Robert. Joe alarmed the bats that inhabited the area, and many of the bats flapped their wings and flew elsewhere, emitting a series of strange noises that echoed in the empty basement, and Robert could be seen. Joe was also full of fear and walked inside with a hard scalp.
Walk to the end of the place in a king sized room, Robert. Joe entered the room with a flashlight, and the corpse incinerators caught his attention. By the light he found that the ashes left in the incinerator were very fresh, as if they had been used not long ago, and it seemed to be an isolated space, and no one had stayed here at all.
It reminded him of the large cemetery at Clarke's base, which was densely packed with tombstones, and this was the corpse treatment center that was buried directly in batches in the base cemetery. Hospitals during the Vietnam War, where a large number of casualties were transported, and lucky soldiers were able to return to their home countries after being wounded, while most of the unlucky were permanently buried here. There are countless soldiers who go out of these incinerators, and even some people who are too late to be treated are sent to the incinerators, where the cruelty and bloodshed of the war can be seen, and there is a sunny side behind all humanity.

Robert. Joe didn't hear a voice like the one security guard Tagro had said, and he searched the entire basement morgue and found nothing unusual.
He then went to another haunted place on the base, where it is said that the figure of a woman dressed in white is often seen shuttling between physical objects, coming and going frequently. Robert. Joe inspected the place and found no anomalies.
Robert. Joe then interviewed the paramedics who were working in the base hospital at the time, as well as the military personnel working at the base, who were indifferent to the hauntings, believing that it was a matter of faith and ideology of filipinos, but also that Clark Base was a paradise place where many American soldiers were recuperating.
Joe. Casley and Cliff. Wilsie was a soldier who retired after the Vietnam War and was treated at Clark Hospital, Robert. Joe interviewed the two men, for the haunted incident they believed was the mental pressure and intimidation caused by the large number of casualties during the war, most of the wounded were sent to Clark Hospital without timely medical assistance and psychological treatment, because the shortage of medical resources led to a large number of soldiers dying in the hospital, the living soldiers had no beds, no place to bathe, no toilet to defecate, and the mental devastation of life is worse than death.
After returning to the residence Robert. Joe consulted a large number of information about the overloaded operation of the Clark base hospital during the Vietnam War, of which hundreds of casualties were taken to the hospital every day, obviously including the dead and the living wounded, and it was doubtful that this four-story hospital could effectively accommodate so many wounded and sick, especially the numerous incinerators in the morgue morgue to know what was happening there, and then look at the tens of thousands of tombstones in the base cemetery. This not only reminds one that there may be fewer people who actually die on the battlefield than in hospitals.
As for the haunted event, it could have been an accident or it could have been a real paranormal phenomenon, apparently Robert. Joe does not explore the authenticity of the haunted event, but accidentally uncovers some of the hidden secrets of the US imperialist war on the outside world.
So far, the haunting of the morgue at Clark Hospital is not strange, in fact, the real "ghosts" are those who operate the war behind the scenes.
