Haunted Buildings

Haunted Buildings

A lot of people have witnessed haunting in buildings all cover the country and today I will share 2 such experiences.

Taman Tun Dr Ismail (better known as TTDI) is a middle-higher class residential place in Kuala Lumpur. Ravi who works for an airline company has to rent a room from a colleague, Timmy, at TTDI while his condominium is being renovated.

One night when Ravi was working on his notebook in his bedroom, he heard a constant loud clanging  sound from the downstairs kitchen as if someone was busy fixing a meal. There were continuous sound of clanging and banging of pots and glasses and Ravi decided to take a break and said hi to his friend, Timmy.

When he was walking from his bedroom door, he suddenly realized that was absolute silence, not a sound from the kitchen. Thinking that Timmy must have stopped cooking, Ravi proceeded down the stairs and into the kitchen. He was surprised and confused that the downstairs’ lights have been turned off and it was dark and silent.

When he turned on the lights on in the kitchen…..Timmy was not there and the kitchen was spic and span and all the glasses and pots have been put away. Ravi later found out that Timmy was enjoying himself at a nightclub and only got back much later that night. 

A week later, Ravi got back one night and when he turned on the lights…the entire chandelier  (ceiling mounted light fixture) completely fell onto the floor. Luckily he noticed the chandelier was swaying (but there was no wind at that time) and he managed to skip pass the falling chandelier. 

When Ravi related to his friends the strange and mysterious happenings about the house, one of them joked that the ghost must somehow be angry with him. Whatever the reason, Ravi decided to move to another place to live.

Afterworld Wedding

Afterworld Wedding

Afterworld Wedding or Ghost Marriage according to some Chinese beliefs is a marriage between a man and a woman who are already dead. This is a true life account of a person's experience of the event.

Boon Hock lives in Kuala Kangsar with his wife, three kids and his mother in Perak. One night he was startled and woke up from a dream about his younger brother. In that dream, Ah Tee (his younger brother) informed him that he wants to get married except his brother was already dead. Ah Tee was killed in a car accident 5 years ago!

When Boon Hock was busy trying to eat his breakfast the next morning, his mother informed him she had a dream about Ah Tee (her youngest son) with the similar message, that he wants to get married. The dead girl who passed away from an illness was from Seremban in Negeri Sembilan. His mother’s dream was similar to Boon Hock’s!

During work, Boon Hock was bothered about their dreams and finally when he got home, he and his wife told his mother that he got the same dream last night. His mother suggested they seek advice from a medium at the nearby temple. The medium confirm that At Tee had fallen in love to a girl from Seremban from the otherworld and wants to marry her.

Although Boon Hock was only a fish monger at the local market, he desperately begged, borrowed from his relatives and friends to come out the money. They even got the deceased girl’s parents consent for the marriage. When they finally succeeded they held an elaborate marriage wedding for his brother in Boon Hock’s house. It was a typical marriage rite with the girl’s parents and some of the relatives.

Deceased Colleagues Part 2

Deceased Colleagues Part 2

This is a continuation of ‘Deceased Colleagues’ which I did not manage to complete. This time I have another 2 mysterious and unexplained tales of colleagues’  of passing on from this world.

Fahmi was formerly from Bahau in the state of Negeri Sembilan which was his hometown. This particular incident happened when he was a student in a school downtown. After school on that day, Fahmi was walking back from the canteen where he saw Cik Ku (teacher – ler) Sulaiman, his former teacher. Cik Ku Sulaiman seemed happy to see Fahmi and he waved his hands excitably for Fahmi to come over. 

When Fahmi walked to Cik Ku Sulaiman he noticed that the teacher was very pale and around his eyes were slight dark patches but other than that he seemed fine. Cik Ku Sulaiman even patted Fahmi on his shoulder and said, “Apa Khabar?” (what’s up). Cik Ku Sulaiman then reminded Fahmi to go to the teachers’ room to see him tomorrow before school. 

Genting Bus Crash 2

Genting Bus Crash 2

I have written about “Genting Bus Crash during Hungry Festival” which left 39 people killed and 16 dead. The privately owned road by Genting Malaysia Berhad, was a scene of tragic and unimaginable devastation. In my article, it was reported that some passengers had seen a group of wavy apparitions waiting at the roadside before the accident.

Some people believe that the souls were waiting to be reincarnated by taking the lives of the people in that tragic accident. Some Chinese also believe that it happened during the Hungry Ghosts Festival where millions of lost souls were released and on the prowl for potential victims. 

Photo of the Genting Bus Crash

From the top right corner of the photo, some readers can see a “white lady looking on the left” and others saw “a white face”. I honestly do not know whether the photo has been ‘photoshop’ or a fake.

Apparitions From The Underworld

Apparitions From The Underworld

When Anna Ching was a teenager, she and her mother visited her aunty and her family at Jerantut in Pahang. Anna’s aunty has been hospitalized and they have to bring food for her everyday. She and her mom also had take care of her young cousins and her uncle in their house.

Jerantut in Pahang 

After spending almost the whole day visiting her aunty in the hospital they went home, where Anna’s mother cooked for her young cousins and her uncle. After dinner, her mother asked Anna to feed the family black mongrel dog, named Trotter. 

It was a moonless night with little light from the lamp posts as Anna walked to the little garden at the front house. Trotter was not at front garden when she heard the mongrel at the fence of the garden whining. Trotter’s face was looking outwards and whining but Anna cannot see anything….the road by the terrace houses was covered with bushes and trees beside the lane…nothing…nada!  There was no one around.

Anna rubbed her eyes with her hands in an attempt to see better…but there were nobody around..except for the dog's whining, she noticed a small shrine around the bushes and the trees but there were no offerings like joss sticks or local fruits. She remembered that her aunt used to do the rituals and the offerings before she was hospitalized. She did not give it further thought to it but went back to the house to play with her cousins.

Genting Bus Crash during Hungry Ghosts Festival!

Genting Bus Crash during Hungry Ghosts Festival!

The worst motor accident in Malaysia’s history happened during the Hungry Ghosts Festival. Were the supernatural souls from the afterworld involved?

“37 killed, 16 injured in Malaysia’s worst accident,” as reported by the mainstream and the internet media. The ill-fated bus was on the Genting up-downhill road on the privately owned by Genting Malaysia Berhad.

The Genting Sempah road is infamous for a string of mysterious incidents  and I have written about it previously in “Apparitions at Genting Sempah-Genting Highlands Highway” and “Ghost Sightings at Genting Sempah, Selangor”.

In addition the bus crash occurred during Hungry Ghosts Month which falls on August 7 and September 4. Taoists believe that the ghosts are opened from hell where the souls can roam the earth for a month.

Deceased Colleagues

Deceased Colleagues

Almost everybody has come across deceased colleagues particularly that have passed away unexpectedly. I have 2 different but similar stories about really weird and strange incident that these people have personally come acrossed.

This was told by Janice Foo which was the Office Manager of a large company in Malaysia. Min Ling was an officer when she was knocked by a bus and killed on the way back from her work. Janice described Min Ling as a kind of ‘mousey’ girl, quiet and shy but she was extremely dedicated in her work. 

A few days after the fatal accident, the security guards at Janice’s office found a strange apparition lurking dressed in a white gown late at night. According to the security guards her face could not be seen as her left face seemed to be partially crushed and bloodied. Before the guards could do anything the lurking apparition suddenly vanished!

During Min Ling’s funeral, some family members had requested a “closed coffin” as Min Ling’s face was badly crushed by the bus. As some of Min Ling’s colleagues were excitably talking and speculating what security guards saw that night .….one of the girls noticed that Min Ling’s computer have been switched on! They were shocked as Min Ling’s workstation has been closed as the management had not found a new replacement yet for Min Ling. In fact some girls have complained about working more hours as they have to take over from Min Ling’s unfinished work.

Sri Mutiara Apartment Lift Incident

Sri Mutiara Apartment Lift Incident

Bernard Ng agreed to look after their aunty’s place during her holiday visit to Taiwan with her other mahjong ‘aunties’. Bernard, his sister May and his mum will visit the apartment for a week during that time. Her aunty lived in an apartment in Sri Mutiara Apartment in Sungei Besi at Kuala Lumpur.

A couple of nights later when they were sleeping, Bernard heard the sound of someone dropping marbles or pebbles on the outside floor tiles. After a while he got up irritated when the sound did not stop….thoonk! thoonk! as he walked from the bedroom door and he found May peering at their bedroom door (mum was asleep). Before he could say anything, the sound of dropping marbles or pebbles suddenly stopped. They both went to turn the lights on from the living room but it was quiet and silent. Must be some neighbours kids, Bernard told his sister although he found it strange that the kids will be playing marbles at 3am.

The night before his aunty came back from Taiwan, the three of them were in the living room when Bernard suggested going to supper at some hawker stalls. His mother and May were not interested so he went off by himself. 

As Bernard got on the lift he noticed that he was not alone, there was a young striking lady inside the lift. As he got on the lift he saw she must be in her twenties with a sexy body-hugging dress with a flawless skin. He quickly said “hullo…going out?” but she did not even reply or acknowledge his presence, preoccupied and busy with her handphone. Walking to further behind the lift he thought “So stuck-up mer”.

Malaysian Ghost Stories

Malaysian Ghost Stories

Countless people faced mysterious and unexplained experiences in their everyday lives…here are 2 such stories.

Gloria Soh was a student at KDU University College in Damansara Jaya in Selangor. Gloria and 5 other outstation students, were placed in a temporary house in USJ in Petaling Jaya. The double-storey house was a corner unit of a linked terrace lot in a residential housing. The corner house was mostly furnished but it was cold, dark and lifeless which an agent explained that the old lady living there had passed away a few years ago. The 6 girls were given 3 rooms upstairs and they had 2 people per room.

Things were fine in the beginning except when one night after dinner at a food stall they got back and when turned on the light…the girls noticed there was wisp of smoke near a picture frame in the dining room. The smoke quickly dissipated and vanished and the girls hurriedly check out the kitchen etc whether it was on fire but could not find anything.

Days after that, Gloria was in bed reading when she heard clearly music sound from the piano downstairs. There was an old piano in the living room downstairs which was left by the old lady before she passed away.

Horny Ghost

Horny Ghost

A teenage girl got the shock of her life when she saw a lurking ghost in her shower.

Jennie Pang and her family moved to their new house at Rompin in the state of Pahang. Everything was alright for the first year when she felt something odd about her house. Like when she was bringing the trash (‘tong sampah’ - ler) one night after dinner, she noticed that although the neighbourhood  were quiet dark, that  a ‘man’ was looking at her house beside a tree directly opposite to their place. Jennie was only 15 years old then and was just a ‘peeping tom’ she did not really care nor think much about it.

A couple of nights later, Jennie was asleep in her bedroom, when she felt something was touching her back as she was lying on her side. Half asleep and dead tired, she simply pulled her blanket around her and facing upwards, she went back to sleep.

A week later, Jennie was finished her shower and she was about to put her clothes on, she casually looked at the bathroom mirror and….there was a ‘man’ in the other corner looking at her! She turned around and gave a yell and screamed, crouching herself and looking at the ‘man’ who was sneering with a mocking smile. She shouted for her mother as she rushed downstairs with super speed to the dining room – butt naked where she found her startled parents and brothers. 

A school friend commented that it must be a horny ghost (“ham sap kwei” – Chinese translation) waiting for his ‘dessert’.
