Pudu Jail in Kuala Lumpur


Death at Selahkah Waterfall

Death at Selahkah Waterfall Most of the Malaysian population is located in rural areas and are mostly involved in the agriculture sectors. People are there are generally poor as compared to the people in the urban areas. As a result the kids from the rural areas do not have the amenities like cybercafé, swimming pools, shopping malls etc compared to urban counterparts. The mid-day sun and the sweltering heat in contrast to the cool water of the waterfall is really a big relief. This is a tale about Azman and their friends who decided to spend the day at the waterfall during their school holidays. On their holidays, they decided to spend their day at the waterfall. Just dressed in their patch-up shorts they plunged in the watery depths of the waterfall, splashing and swimming into the graying water of the pool. Suddenly, Nordin was sucked the swirling water of the pond. His friends dived into the pool trying to rescue him. They could only watch helplessly against the currents of the water. They then rushed to inform their parents and called the Rescue Department. The personnel from the Rescue Department finally came and they conducted a search for Nordin’s body. They eventually found the lifeless body upstream and the corpse was entangled with weeds. The personnel from the Fire & Rescue Department and the neighbors’ brought the body back to Nordin’s parents house. Nordin’s parents were devastated and there was a lot of weeping and crying for the death of their son. Jasin was Nordin’s cousin, and since he was much older, he was elected to help the body with the preparation of the body. The body was washed or bathed then wrapped in a white cloth ready for burial. Jasin noticed the welds of hand marks on the legs of the corpse as if gripped violently by someone. Jasin desperately asked the elderly neighbor about the marks on the body. The elderly neighbor was reluctant to talk about it, however he relented and said that was left by a “water ghost”, people who have died tragically from the waterfall!!! (Jasin now resides in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. He kindly related this story to me.)

Haunting of an Expatriate in Bangsar


Haunting of an Expatriate in Bangsar
Salamander is from Sweden and was transferred to a large multi-telecommunication company. She was so happy to have found a new home at Bangsar in Malaysia, an upper class neighborhood location.  She was discouraged by Amy, my cousin, who is a Real Estate agent. The reason Amy was against the idea was that place was considered haunted. In fact, a lady committed suicide a few years ago and that house was haunted and occupied by supernatural being. There were instances of other customers who had to leave after several bad and terrifying experiences.
Marion, who was Salamander’s assistant, agreed readily and she were told of that place and she heard of that ‘dirty’ land. However, Salamander was convinced that there was no such thing as a haunted house. She claimed that we were to too superstitious and that all these talk just nonsense. Anyway Salamander was adamant and she finally moved into the residence.
Nothing happened for the first week and Marion spend the day with Salamander, cleaning and packing helping her the things from packed packages. All of a sudden, there was a low sound, like some low pitch sound.
Marion was terrified and she quickly asked whether Salamander heard that sound. Salamander said its probably the sound from the trees, as the sound of wind were gusting and blowing the leaves of the trees.  Unconvinced Marion said it couldn’t be as it sounded quite strange.  Instead of argument with her, Salamander  suggested that Marion had done enough for the day besides it was almost 6pm. Marion always leave before 6 pm and she readily agreed and she said she will there tomorrow.
In the meantime, Salamander decided to take a nap after a long tough day after all packing and cleaning. She awoke and found the whole house in darkness and she can hear the sound of wind and rain drops. Then she heard the low sound of a person weeping, it sound was so hideous and yet so melodious. The sound was going from a very low pitch and reverting to a much deeper and louder pitch. Shivers went down her spine and goose bumps in her feet and hands were freezing. The sound seemed to be coming from everywhere…from the entire house.
As she switched on the lights she got a glimpse of a white shadow which suddenly disappeared. The sound of the rainfall was getting louder and so was the sound of a person weeping was getting more audible. Lost and bewildered she got in her garden and grabbed her car to get out of the house.
(Salamander stayed with her friend Marion and after that she spent time in a hotel. She found another place at a condominium, but insists that she will never go back to her old place!)

Scary Kid


Scary Kid
Mavis worked as an Accounts Manager and is my old friend and colleague. She recounted this experience to me which happen about three years ago. One Saturday, she went out for shopping at the mall and she stopped by in the open-air café, for a drink. While drinking she decided to go through the receipts from her purchases and waited for her father to finish his shopping.
She was seated facing the open carpark and the cars were parked in the rows closest to the adjoining open-air shops. She noticed the car facing her was park with the back towards her. In the rear glass was a boy about 10 years old in the back seat and he was facing her. She gave the kid a brief smile and went back to her sorting her receipts.
However she realized that something was abnormal with that child. Curious she glance back to relook at the kid who was still staring at her from the car. She grasp in shock that the child had really dark eyes, in fact, the eyes were completely black like the anime cartoon and there was no white part over the iris. The kid was staring at her with unblinking eyes. It was really eerie.
The couple was finally to the vehicle and the elderly man and woman was busy talking to each other before getting into the car. It looks like they were unaware of the kid and they the elderly couple look like from Chinese descent…but the kid was dark like an Indian or Pakistani!
Things were happening so fast and before she could do anything, her father arrived carrying his stuff and sat in one of the seats. Mavis’s father was complaining that he had a tough time finding the café.
When she turned to look at the car, the Chinese couple was already driving out…she quickly glance again at the kid, he was still at the back of the car still facing Mavis and fixed glaringly with completely dark eyes and he was smirking…she could white fangs.
Unfortunately Mavis did not see the car again.

Haunted Computer?


Haunted Computer?

My sister just mentioned that TWITTER, the site which supposely provides the latest internet updates,  is possibly closing down…according to rumors by some fans of the site. This is probably not true and is just a hoax.
This incident reminded me of whether computer can reside in computers. Or can spirit or supernatural communicate with us? Can they reside in foreign objects?
A couple of years I encountered a strange incident with a computer at work. I was then working for construction company and was working late. By the time I got back to the office that day, it was dark and    the twilight light state has blotted out the night sky . It was a breezy night and I felt a cold unnatural breeze. The office is old two-storey bungalow, was actually constructed in the 1960s or 1970s, then converted to our present office.  It was however a really long tiring and tough day and I long to go home.

My secretary has already left for the day.  The entire office was dark except  with only light coming  from my room and light from my secretary’s work place. The rest of the office was dark, except for shadows cast by light  from the outside.  I desperately needed her type to type a memo which I need to sent out the next day and I found her hasn’t done it.  I was upset and frustration with my secretary that she has type the memo  as I urgently need it. I however decided to do it myself and turned her computer on and her printer on.  
I decided to take a toilet break in the meantime before getting back to the computer. The toilet was located are the pantry at office of the back of the building.  When I briefly  heard strange noises in the inside the office building.  Actually, it was the unmistaken  sound of printer being turned on. To add to my confusion, I faintly smelt a fragrance scent that pervaded the building.
There was some talk about hearing strange noises at the toilet and some claimed that they heard of the sound  from inside the building when there is  no one is around.  I however did pay much attention  to this talk, as I took it as just people’s talk and  I considered this as nonsensical  unsubstantiated beliefs
I was a bit unsettled about the noise. When I got back to my office, I found the office  empty but I did not hear any noises. Curiousity got the better of me and I quickly enter my secretary’s work area. There no one around and I was confused about the sound of office. I looked at the printer and I felt the chill around my spine and my heart race wildly. There in front of the printer, it was this paper which read,  “I am here!”.
 I felt cool unnatural breeze and felt the little hairs on the back of the neck stood rigid. Shocked and surprised. I quickly got up, and closed up and left.

Spirits At Traveler's Lodge


Spirits at Traveler’s Lodge
A neighbor’s son who was at that time about 17 years old was always getting into trouble. He was practically failing badly in his studies and he was into smoking, drugs and drinking alcohol. He and his friends decided to rent a room at the local Traveler’s Lodge. The management was reluctant to rent out but they eventually agreed, provided they accept the room that was way out of the other guests. That was fine with them, as they did not care whether they stayed and only matter to them is a place to party to drink and smoke.
After a night of partying, my neighbor’s son woke up and found that he was lying face down at the carpet floor. He looked around and saw a feet where he was sleeping. He quickly rolled over and he was surprised to see a boy squatting over him. He cried out, “Hey man, who is that kid?...somebody’s little brother!”. Nobody answer and he fell asleep again (probably crashed out).
He woke up and he found there were a lot of voices of people talking. As he was still lying on his back, he turned again and found one of his friend has fallen asleep on the chair but with his head on the table. There were a lot of strangers talking around his sleeping friend. The over window was just beside the front and he was surprised to find an elderly well dressed woman looking at him from outside. She was smiling at him and waving a bright yellow scarf. Confused he angrily shouted at the rest and wondering what the hell they want. Fortunately or unfortunately, he fell asleep again from the alcohol that he was consuming the other night.
He was woken by one his friend the next day with a bad hangover as they had to leave before 12pm. As he was leaving the room he asked his friends whether they know who the strangers and whose little brother is. His friends look puzzled and said that they did not see anybody and even joked that my neighbor’s son probably had too much to drink and drugs. Confused he did not say anything besides he wasn’t sure his friends were just messing with him.
As he was getting to leave he saw in the corridor the bright yellow scarf lying in the corridor!
I heard that he does not take hard liquor or any illegal drugs anymore.
