The Locked Room
Landlord rented to
tenants with a locked room in memory of their dead son.
Roger Ling rented a shared bedroom with Anand in Sungai
Petani in the state of Kedah. The master bedroom was rented to a married couple
but the third room was locked. The uncle and aunty (Mr & Mrs Lee) told that room was securely locked and it was
their dead son’s room. The tenants were told that room had many sweet memories
for them and were warned that they under no circumstances would they be allow
from going to that room.
Mr & Mrs Lee also mentioned that their daughter has been
persistent that they should stay with her. Their daughter argued that with them
there it will be easier to look after them especially if they are sick.
Over the next few months nothing really happened except
Roger and other tenants heard faint shuffling & squeaking sounds especially
at nights. They thought it must be rats or some rodents in the house.
One day Roger woke up
in the late morning and as expected all tenants have left for work. As Roger is
a student in a local college and that day he had afternoon classes. Roger went
to the bathroom to brush his teeth and followed up with a quick shower.
As he was walking to his bedroom his mobile phone started to
ring with his usual ring tone. He turned and looked down to mobile phone with
the charger connected to it. The charger with its wires was there but the
mobile phone was not there. Thinking he must have left the mobile phone in the
bathroom, he rushed to the bathroom.
Typical Mobile Phone
As Roger was walking to the bathroom he suddenly realized
the ring tones was coming in the side. He turned his head….the ring tones was
coming from the locked bedroom!
