Deceased Loved Ones

Deceased Loved Ones

I have heard numerous stories of people’s ghostly encounters in graveyards, hospitals, or even in shopping malls.

However its actually touching that some spirits seemed to “relive” their whole existence just being closed to someone for the rest of lives. At times, they seem to spend their whole life of their natural or unnatural lives with their hosts until the hosts die. Let me relate to you of two similar stories that I have personally encountered.

1^st Story

I am especially close to a young girl, Kelly (at that time) when she finally married with a great guy and together they stayed with the Jay’s parents. The courtship lasted over 10 years and throughout that time together they faced tough times like when the young man lost his only and younger brother from illness and the time Kelly had a miscarriage of their first child but of course to much happier times together.

One day, a close friend Jay who was working in Singapore came back to KL and looking for a permanent place to stay. Jay’s close friend also invited a famous medium from Singapore to have a look at his apartment. Jay and Kelly were equally excited as they were trying to buy a neighbor’s unit and merge their 2 units together.

When they finally reached the ‘2’ apartments, the medium was busy looking at all the nooks and crannies and were generally satisfied except for some minor renovations that he wanted. After the visit to their apartments, they went to an eating place near the budget hotel room that they rented a room for the medium (there is a belief that allow the mediums can only accept Spartan or frugal gifts).

While eating, the medium casually said….”looks like you got 2 regulars ghost spirts in your house …a young boy and a baby spirit!” Kelly and Jay were completely shocked (as only their closest family members were aware……Jay’s younger brother died in parents apartment and the baby ghost can only refer to Kelly’s miscarriage a few years back!!!

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.

Gwai Zhai or Toyol

Gwai Zhai or Toyol

A college student has a terrifying encounter with a ‘child ghost’ (or commonly known as gwai zhai or toyol).

Mei Lei rented a room at a rented house with her friends for her studies at TAR University College at Kampar, Perak. When she got back to her place there was nobody there as her friends were still in campus. Feeling a bit tired she wanted to go for a shower followed with a nap.

The feeling in the house gave her the freaks…it was like so eerie and lifeless. Nevertheless she up to her room to get her clothes for the shower. When she was showering she thought she heard giggling and she thought it couldn’t be her friends back so early. So she yelled up and to say that she was in the shower but there was no answer.

Mei Lei quickly finished showering put her clothes on and went to the down to the ground floor to look for her friends. When she got there nobody was around and thought she must be mistaken and must look foolish. She reluctantly went back to her bedroom deciding on a good nap before dinner.
