Absolute Spook

I was very tired. It was about 1 or 2am in the early morning. So it was time to go straight to bed. Tired like hell, I slept with my face facing the wall and my back against the door.

Slowly going into my slumber mode, after about 15 minutes or so, I heard my door opened a little (the creaking of the door is easily heard when it’s at a quiet night, just in case my sister sneak in). Since my room floor was carpeted, I can hear someone walking in the room. So I am mighty sure someone came into the room, which I come to conclude must be my sister. Either she forgotten her stationery set or just want to get something from my desk.

So wanting to surprise her, I turned around and OMG…. to my horror I am facing a blank, half opened door. It was scary, I couldn’t move even if I wanted to as I was stiff frightened. Without thinking for awhile, I quickly pulled the blanket over me and went to sleep without thought.

Today’s entry comes all the way from Singapore. Regards, anonymous.

This was what happened. My friend went for military training in Thailand near a river, which I believed was the Chao Phraya. Respectively, his sergeant for the military camp does his jogging rounds everyday around 6pm.

One evening though, he never came back. So all army personnel were dispatched to locate the missing comrade. Following his usual route, they found him dead, lying face down in the river. Luckily though, my friend was not ordered to retrieve the body from the river. It would have shocked him.

For, those who actually went into the river saw the sergeants head with a hole which was 2 inches in diameater just above the neck. The brains were gone.

I’m sure you’ve all heard about this, but I’m going to talk about it since I had my own experience.

It happened during the Hungry Ghost Festival period, about one month ago.

That night was especially warm. I sat in front of my computer and did the usual, and the increasingly warm temperature became too hot for me to bear. Naturally, I switched on the air-conditioner and hoped that the air gets cooler. It worked out fine before I decided to go offline and rest.

As I was laying lazily on my bed, the heat gradually came back. It was not a normal thing to happen, for the temperature of my air-conditioner was set at 16 degrees Celsius. I checked the air-conditioner, and found nothing wrong with the settings. Not knowing what’s wrong, and feeling tired, I went back to bed and tried to sleep.

Minutes later, I heard a voice. I thought I was dreaming. That voice, clearly belonged to a female, didn’t say a word, not crying or laughing, but breathing heavily right next to my ears! It was the scary type of breathing noise. I tried to turn my head around to have a look, but to my greatest surprise, my head wouldn’t move! Or rather, some unseen force is preventing me from turning my head. And then I felt the thing grabbing my shoulder, I tried to move my hands but they wouldn’t move too. Even my legs wouldn’t move. I was shaking in fear, my shirt drenched in cold sweat. I was immobilized in my own bed by something I don’t know, and can’t see.

The breathing continued for minutes or hours, I don’t know for sure. It felt like hours to me. It also got louder and scarier, and then it began to laugh while breathing even louder. I thought that was the end of me, when suddenly, I felt its grip on my shoulder loosening, its weight on my body lifting, and I regained control of my body, I can finally move. Just like that, without a trace, it came and left. The temperature of the room returned to normal, and I was all sweat and my body felt weak and still shaky.

I’ve read about this before, also watched television programs, and learned that there are scientific explanations for these weird phenomenas, but that only happens when you’re sleeping on your back, right? I was sleeping on my side the whole time. Why did it still happen? Plus, that clearly wasn’t just an unseen force, it was breathing at my ears and there is that scary laughter.

So if anyone knows how to explain this, please do tell me about it.

If you are a frequent traveler, you will know or roughly know about this taboo.

In every hotel, the management usually at least leave a single permanent room empty at all times. No matter how full the hotel can get, they will not sell or rent out the room to their hotel guests.
It was rumored that the special room is “reserved” for those “special visitors”.

So, if you plan to stay in any hotel, book in advance. Walking in and doing direct booking is usually a no-no unless you can help it or you’re not superstitious.
If the hotel receptionist mentioned that there’s no more room available, do not insist for one anymore or try to bribe them to give you a room. If you were to do that, you would usually be given that “special room“.

Sometimes these “special visitors” might wander to other rooms, thus here are some tips on how to protect yourself:

- Before entering your room, knock on the door first, even if you know the room is vacant.
- Once you enter the room, if you felt chill suddenly and have “chicken spore”, leave the room in a quiet fashion immediately and go to reception to request for a change of room. Most of the time the receptionist will understand what’s happening.
- After you enter the room, immediately switch on all of the lights, and undraw the curtain to let the sun light in.
- before you go to bed, arrange your shoes in a way that one of them is facing the opposite side. People say that this is represents yin & yang in order to protect you while you’re asleep.
- Always leave at least a lamp/light on while you’re sleeping, preferably the toilet’s light. *I myself don’t do that though*
- If you’re staying alone and they have give you a twin bed, do not sleep with the other bed empty, try to put your things like you luggage on the other bed before you sleep.

Looks like there multiple submissions these time around. Prepare for lotsa own life stories from anonymous contributors.

I was a school prefect. Well, ever since then I have been doing my roundings around the school compound every morning (around 6:30am). Well, it was the duty of the prefect to start their perimeter checks. Prefects come early in the morning ( early as 6.30am) to start their perimeter guarding ..which are just walking around the compound of the school. There is a Form 6 (equivalent to A levels) block which has 4 levels on it…and so be it our school was a historical building where those Japanese used it as their headquaters when the World War 2 was here.

You can guess that this historical building was build without much light on it… and it is quite dark in the early morning even when you walk around the corner you cant even see you own fingers.. It all sounded strange one day when two prefects went for their daily routine and while they walked to the highest level of the block..they heard someone crying and mourning. The problem though is they can’t see anything…so they went and and searched the source of the sound. Though suddenly when they head into a corner of the block, what appears before them was a girl with long hair dressed in white, squatting and crying. They thought it was some lost girl or abandoned there.

Thus, they approach to the girl and see what happened to her. Or so it seems then suddenly, the girl stopped crying, and started to make noises and starts laughing. She tilted her head up and to the horror of the prefects, she was staring at them with no eyes, nose and mouth, only the face is visible to them.

What else, the 2 prefects went off running, reporting to the head prefect with their faces all white. Though after that it was funny, nothing was there when the spot check was done.

This story is related to me by my 2nd aunt’s husband (my ku cheong)…

Istana Raja Bersiung is located in a secluded location in Bukit Pinang, Kedah. It has been left empty for many many years…

Istana Raja Bersiung is also well known among people who likes fishing. It is said to have the nicest ‘ikan keli’ or known as toh sat in Hokkien. My uncle went fishing with his friends in the Istana Raja Bersiung one weekend. They managed to catch quite a number of fat ikan keli…

After hours of fishing, they decided to call it day, that’s when the unbelievable happened…

They started to pack and get ready to leave the place when they realise that there’s NO WAY OUT.

They tried to look everywhere for the exit but couldn’t find one. So after 1-2 hours of searching they gave up… Then one of them said that people used to face the same the situation as them and all they did was to remove all their clothings… So they decided to try it.

Once they removed their clothes, the exit is just right is front of them. They ran off from they place and never looked back again… I heard that the fishes there are ‘protected’ and only it’s ‘owner’ can have eat it…

Now everytime I pass that area, I feel chilly…

Remembered I’ve seen it during summer camps one night. It was the last night for the summer camp and I can assure you it wasn’t me only that seen it. What was worst, was my friend even peed in their pants. It was scary, we can’t even shout or run at all. Too scared..

Here’s my description from what I remembered.

- white
- the face is white
- white clothed
- floating on air
- the eye is indescribable, up and down
- mostly all white
- transparent

I believe it is not a projector or some lighting effect. During that time, projector is not that modern and I doubt it can do that effect. The most important part is still not only me but all of us saw it clearly.

Now relating this story made me can’t sleep at night once again. Just like white thing on the banner… *scary*

Here’s a story during one of the reader’s fishing trips sent in by an anonymous.

There’s a man who is my father’s friend. Along the way, I have met himand even went fishing with him as well. This man related a story he experienced during a fishing trip in the jungle. Though location wise, he didn’t mentioned at all.

Here’s the story….

A group of them went fishing. One fellow went on his own to fish while the rest stayed together.They managed to catch a few fishes. It was practically getting late and they decided to leave when they realised the guy who went on his own hadn’t return and there was no sound from him as well. So they started calling for him, but after a while there was still no response. It’s mighty peculiar, thinking something might have happened to him.
Okay so they thought he must have went out on his own and probably fell asleep. So they started to make their way out, but then it seems as if they were going nowhere. They were actually going in circles. Immediately they knew something was wrong. Panic started to set in.

They then knew some ‘datuk’ of the jungle was holding them back,so what they did was, they put down the fishes and started to piss everywhere and curse with foul language at the top of their lungs. Suddenly the guy who broke away was standing in front of them.

They were shocked and asked him where he went. The guy answered ‘I was standing here right in front of you guys, I saw all of you pissing and cursing. I called out to all of you but then it seems you guys did not seem to hear’.

They quickly left leaving the fishes caught behind.

This is after all the ghostly lunar month where the Chinese calls it the Hungry Ghost Festival. Yes, the 七月 (7th Month) is here and during this time, lots of taboos and things are going round. Most traditional Chinese will tell their children to stay out of danger and places during the night and to be wary around for any wandering spirits.

Just when you thought in this modern age there are no such things as spirits, you’ll never know when and where will ‘it’ happen.

Basically this is the time where spirits of the dead gets to roam free on Earth to enjoy the pleasures and to visit their family members who are still living. So of course, you’ll get to see many family members start offering things with candles. Now that’s good? Or rather to celebrate the homecoming of their ‘family’ and also to warned other spirits that they are well protected.

I know loads of you guys out there like to talk bout ghost and spirits and etc…
But do you guys also know that they like to hear bout themselves too?
My friend told me this, I am just telling back his story in text form. =P

Here goes….

My friend went on some trip with a bunch of his friends. His gang of friends consists of him, a guy with the third eye (let’s just call him A), one that knows alot about chanting certain mantra (religious ones) and several others.
They rented an apartment there to stay for the night that has a balcony outside the living room. So happen that they decided to tell ghost stories to past the time in the living room of the apartment but the friend with the third eye didn’t join them because he need to run to shops to buy stuff.
Before they start, that friend that knows alot about chantings and stuff told them to sit in a circle and hold hands before he starts chanting some stuff to “protect” those who are in the circle telling the stories. Once he’s done they all started to tell their stories one at a time. After awhile when A came back to the apartment he said to his friends “Hey what are you guys doing la?”. To which his friends replied, “What does it look like we’re doing? We’re telling ghost stories lor.”
Then A said, “Did you know there are loads of “fella” that are here listening?” Then his friends said, “What fellas? What are you talking bout man?” A then said, they are all outside, crouching down together in the balcony listening to every single word that comes out of you guys’ mouth.

So you see boys and girls, be careful when you are telling ghost stories….
You’ll never know who / what might be eave dropping on you guys….
