Spookiest Jobs

Spookiest Jobs

The two spookiest jobs are arguably the police and the mortuary because of deaths and because it sometimes involve the ghostly paranormal activities of the unknowns. This involves incident about a mortuary and the police.

Sheila is student living from India when we were students living in the United States. We used to organize dinners living in the dormitories. During our chats about practically everything, she mentioned that she never saw any strange happenings while living in India. However she received disturbing news about an uncle (her mother’s elder brother) who is a doctor works at a mortuary in a Government hospital.

Sheila’s uncle was conduction a post mortem on a teenage girl who was badly mangled during a car accident. His uncle’s medical assistant had moved to the other room temporary and he was looking at some papers when at the corner of his eyes saw the corpse moving.

In a split second he rapidly faced the direction of the corpse and found the mangled body was sitting face up and she was staring at him and she was smiling! The cries from Sheila’s uncle attracted the medical assistant where he found the doctor shivering on the floor. He did not find anything unusual, as the corpse was lying on the table.

The second incident was when Shukri was called to a car incident in the night. Shukri is a traffic policeman and he was called to an accident in the outskirt of Kuantan in Pahang.

Life as a Hospital Technician

Life as a Hospital Technician

Working as a Hospital Technician, Subramaniam realizes it is not the most sought after job but to him it is one of the most important in terms of saving lives and getting used to death. Over the years, he has experience numerous real-life and true accounts of unnatural and unexplained incidents.

Subramaniam  had worked as a government Hospital Technician for more than 23 years in numerous Government hospitals. Unfortunately he refused to name the hospitals that he has worked partly due to confidentially reasons.

According to Subramaniam, all hospitals have a particular lift or elevator which leads from the hospital wards to the mortuary. People in this lift generally feel extreme unease, a sense of something is terribly wrong. This is quite common and understandable.

He has gotten used to strange sounds from the restrooms and toilets, people crying at night etc after so many years as a Hospital Technician. However he recalls 2 personal incidents which stand in his mind.

The first incident, when at certain nights, a ghostly vision of nurses were seen walking together, as if rushing off (dressed in old uniform). He has been advised, when he first started out, that such appearance of apparitions were common. He was told that people should carry on with their work and pretend that the apparitions did not exist.

In another case, during heavy thunderstorms a boy was seen crying at a certain ward. The ghostly boy would squat and wail continuously.

Note : Some believe that residual or left over energy from past memories.

“They were once humans”, he declared, “and everyone should leave them alone. Maybe with time, their memories will slowly fade away”.
