When he reached the parking area, he realized that ht forgot his keys. So he went back to get it. He knows where the key is so he didn't bother turning on the lights and he doesn't want to disturb his sleeping roommate.

As soon as he enters the grounds of the school, the Ambulance was still tailing him. When he reached his dorm, there were so many people surrounding his room.

Philippine Urban Legends Part 1
First, what is the meaning of Urban Legend?
Urban Legend is a secondhand story told as true and just plausible enough to be believed, embarrasing, ironic or exaspering series of events that is supposedly happened to a real person.
Here are some Urban Legend stories which i find interesting to read. You might find it interesting too.
Have fun!
1. The 80's Craze Killer of New Manila
There were stories about a couple out on a date. This couple was stuck in a creepy area when they ran out of gas. The guy went out to try to get some gas and left his girlfriend inside the car. About half an hour later, the girl noticed that there was this man watcing her from a dark portion of th road. Shen then locked all the doors of the car when she saw te man walking towards her. The strange man tired to force the doors open, the girl honked to get the attention and hoping to scare the guy away. The man finally gave up and run away.
After a few minutes, the man came back and started circling the car. The girl was about to honk the horn when the man lifted something on his hand and walks towards the car. TO the girlfriends horror, she realized that it was her boyfriends decapitated head. She screamed in fear but nothing prepared her for what came next. The stranger lifted his other hand and the girl saw that he had in his possesion the car keys of the boyfriend.
The next day, authorities found the girl inside the car crying and laughing, saying things did'nt make sense. She was driven insane by something, they didn't know.
Up to this day, the stange man was never found.
2. The Medical Student
A group of medical students decided to play a harmless prank on their easily frightened classmate. They planned a special study session to be held in the cadaver room with their intended victim. When the girl arrived for the session and found no one in the room, she thought she was too early and decided to read her notes. The rest of the group mates were actually hiding and they switched the lights off. The girl screamed and screamed to no avail and then all of a sudden she stopped. After a while, the pranksters began to wonder what had happened. Upon turning the lights on, they were shocked to see their hapless classmate gnawing on a piece of the cadaver.
3. The Manila Film Center Tragedy
It all started with Francis Ford Coppola and Peter Weir. Both had films about to direct and chose the Philippines to stand in for Vietnam and Indonesia, respectively. Having tasted a bit of Hollywood, Imelda had the grandiose notion to turn Manila into the Cannes of the Pacipic by starting an internatioanl film festival. In order to do so, she required a suitable venue for her envisioned Manila International Film Festival (MIFF).
Having set a date of January 18. 1982 for the start of the festival. Imelda needed to get starting on building her newest adifice. For her last major project at the Cultural Center of the Philippines, she passed over Leandro Locsin and chose architect Froilan Hong.
The tragedy struck on November 17, 1981, shortly before 3:00 am when the scaffolding for part os the second basement collapsed and burying an unknown number of the graveyar shift workers in the quick drying cement. Imelda believed in 24-hour labor.
In her rush to complete the project in time for the MIFF, Imelda order that fresh concrete be poured over the dead workers and construction continue.
7,000 labourers working round the clock between Christmas day 1981 and January 18, 1982 got the Center built with 15 minutes to spare.
So, are the ghost of the trapped workers real or just a myth?
