The 2.5m Tall Hat Man

In our main story for this episode, Prof Chen shares a story from his time in university when he was living in a dilapidated fraternity house with several other roommates.

One night after sharing a bunch of ghost stories, he experienced an unusually vivid dream where he felt the physical sensation of freezing milk being poured down his back. When he woke up, he heard a sharp, human scream coming from the porch, followed by heavy footsteps that tracked through the house and stopped right outside his bedroom. This would culminate in impossibly tall figure - over 2.5 meters tall - appearing inside his room, sporting a long coat and a vintage old-fashioned hat, creeping towards him until it was just mere inches from Prof Chen's face.
