THE GHOSTS OF THE PAST, SPEAK TO ALL WHO LISTEN...
The ghost factories seem to have a PR department of their own when it comes to promoting tales of ghost rides on the MRT. The stories are tightly focused on two stations in particular although occasional stories are floated ( if you’ll pardon the pun) about other stations too. The two most haunted stations by …
I was riding up the slope of Ambu Solo, near Telok Kurau, on my scooter when I came across this beautiful girl seated on a milestone. I knew something was up, but I wanted to test my courage against this spirit. It is better not to show too much fear of these things, or they …
I wouldn’t exactly call this a ghost story but my mother sometimes goes into a trance when she is in the prayer room. And when she is in a trance she speaks in strange voices, sometimes really deep, men’s voices. It can be quite frightening. It’s happened a few times already. When I have been …

My mother is quite psychic. At least, we believe so in our family. I, myself have never seen a ghost but let me relate what happened once when I was a child. I remember I was about eight years old and my sister was 10. We were sitting out in the swing in the evening. …
In a corner of the corridor backstage of a local theatre, where the actor’s changing rooms are, there is a tiny, almost unnoticeable, little porcelain idol. I’ll tell you why it is there. I was acting in a play in the theatre and was dead tired by the end of an unusually long run of …
