Closing an Old House
Ghostly
events occurred when a woman and family helps her mother to relocate to their
house.
Felicia was
relived and overjoyed when her mother finally agreed to their pleas about her relocating
to their home in Ipoh, Perak. Her mother had a stroke recently and she had
pleaded with her mother it was her turn to look after her. Felicia’s hubby,
Denis, agreed in fact they have decided to move her things to a private portion
in their house so she can have privacy.
Felicia and
her siblings grew-up together their parents in an old Chinese Village in a
small town. As they grew up they moved away and Felicia feels that with her
mother’s recent stroke, it is time to bring her home with them.
A Typical Chinese
Village
When they
arrived at the old house, Felicia’s daughter, Mandy 4 year-old, suddenly
screamed and cried insisting on being carried by her father. When questioned by
Felicia, she would only mumbled that it was “lar char” (translation: dirty). Unable
to pacify or calm Mandy, they gave up and brought back Felicia’s mother to
their home in Ipoh.
