Supernatural Tales from Taiwan & Malaysia

Two stories about supernatural or paranormal experiences from both Taiwan & Malaysia. In Taiwan a youth claims his BFF (best friend forever) is a ghost. For Malaysia a young girl claims to talk with her with her deceased grandmother.

Taiwan

14 year old, Kenny is the only child and stays with his parents in the capital Taipei in Taiwan. His parents were having problems in their relationship and to add to that, Kenny has started mixing with the wrong crowd.

Desperate for a solution and as it was during school holidays, his parents decided that he should go Mrs Wu who lives in the small town in province of Yilan. Kenny’s mother is the sister of Mrs Wu who is widow and lives with her son Victor. Kenny who thinks that 12 year old Victor with thick glasses is a nerdy brat who proudly inform everyone that his best friend is a ghost!

One day Victor volunteered to pick up the prepared food for dinner from a lady as Mrs Wu had to the 2^nd shift at work. As Kenny walked back to the apartment he noticed that the TV was loudly blaring away and he heard Victor was happily chatting by himself.

Putting the food away, a totally fed-up Kenny walked to the living room to confront Victor. When he reached the room, Victor was at side facing yapping with the TV facing directly. Kenny stopped absolutely shock ..the empty rocking chair beside Victor … was gently rocking away by itself!!!

Malaysia

Some people believe that some young children are more likely feel the presence of the paranormal or ghosts. I have also written of these experiences in my blog.

Mimi is the 4 year old daughter of Pete and Sharon living in Petaling Jaya in Malaysia. Pete is a full-time house husband and occasionally works as a travel consultant. Sharon works as a partner in the advertising industry.

One night when Pete was putting on pair of pajamas on Mimi with some difficulties as she seemed distracted looking intently at something on her bedroom. When Pete asked Mimi what she was looking at, she just shrugged.

That night, Sharon was as usual working late, Pete was tucking Mimi into her bed when she asked in a low voice, “Why Por-por (grandmother a term for her mother’s mother in Cantonese) called mummy with a funny name?”

Pete was slightly taken aback as Mimi was only born a year after Sharon’s mother passed away. In other words, Sharon’s mother passed away before Mimi was born but Pete thought it must from old photos of her grandmother.

Pete asked her what funny name that Por-por used on mummy and she hesitantly replied, “Char-lun” Pete was absolutely shocked when he heard the ‘name’ as Sharon’s mother was the sweetest woman but she was uneducated and can only understand Cantonese dialect. “Char-lun” in Cantonese means ‘car wheel’ when she refer to her daughter Sharon!!!

Ghosts Everywhere!

Ghosts Everywhere!

There are ghosts and they can be anywhere!

A Taoist sifu (master) said to me that most people do not seemed to realize but ghosts can come and go anywhere. The Chinese for example called them as wandering or roaming ghosts. (would really appreciate if anybody could provide these type of ghosts of Malay, Indians, Iban, etc) These ghosts or departed spirits will roam anywhere but probably within the country.

Public Offering during Hungry Ghost Month

Mrs Cheong told me about the eerie experience that her son and daughter had in a public tuition center. Her son Troy, 15 year-old, had finished his English class and was waiting for his younger sister, Kandi, for her music class to be over in another hour.

Troy went back to the usual mamak stall and with a coke he sat faced sideways with his stool and his back resting on the table. After thirty minutes he heard a voice at the back of his table. It was Kandi and she was looking at Troy as he casually asked, “Tuition over?”

Kandi did not reply but was just looking at him with a crazy smirk like smile. Crazy girl, Troy thought as he went back to game on his phone. Ten minutes later he felt his sister tugging on his back shoulder which he shrugged off.

A few minutes later Troy fell another tug from Kandi and Troy yelled, “Want what?” and angrily turned and look at his sister…but she was no there. There were no people around his table.

Mrs Cheong had parked her car and went to the mamak stall to look for her kids only to be told by Troy that Kandi is missing. The frantic mother and son anxiously asked the worker who told them he did not anybody – the son was sitting alone! To all to the confusion an elderly Indian lady who was at the mamak stall jumped in and insisted she saw someone sitting at Troy’s table and pestering him but it was a young fat Indian girl.

Amid the total chaos, Kandi and her friend strolled into the mamak stall. The relieved Mrs Cheong and Troy and interrogated on where she went. A bewildered Kandi said that she was in her Music class and did not go out.. and her friend confirmed it!

The Locked Room

The Locked Room

Landlord rented to tenants with a locked room in memory of their dead son.

Roger Ling rented a shared bedroom with Anand in Sungai Petani in the state of Kedah. The master bedroom was rented to a married couple but the third room was locked. The uncle and aunty (Mr & Mrs Lee) told that room was securely locked and it was their dead son’s room. The tenants were told that room had many sweet memories for them and were warned that they under no circumstances would they be allow from going to that room.

Mr & Mrs Lee also mentioned that their daughter has been persistent that they should stay with her. Their daughter argued that with them there it will be easier to look after them especially if they are sick.

Over the next few months nothing really happened except Roger and other tenants heard faint shuffling & squeaking sounds especially at nights. They thought it must be rats or some rodents in the house.

One day Roger woke up in the late morning and as expected all tenants have left for work. As Roger is a student in a local college and that day he had afternoon classes. Roger went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and followed up with a quick shower.

As he was walking to his bedroom his mobile phone started to ring with his usual ring tone. He turned and looked down to mobile phone with the charger connected to it. The charger with its wires was there but the mobile phone was not there. Thinking he must have left the mobile phone in the bathroom, he rushed to the bathroom.

Typical Mobile Phone

As Roger was walking to the bathroom he suddenly realized the ring tones was coming in the side. He turned his head….the ring tones was coming from the locked bedroom!

Robin phoned the landlord couple to inform of the latest incident about his mobile phone. The landlord sounded annoyed and said that Robin was mistaken. However the couple could not come until their daughter gets back from work.

Robin & all his roommates were there that night when the older couple and their daughter finally arrived. The locked bedroom was not just locked by the usual key method but it was securely bolted with a steel chain with a combination lockset.

They were waiting patiently while Mr Lee “sudah bising”(angry nagging) while busy unlocking the bedroom. As it was late the bedroom light was turned on, everything seemed normal but….the mobile phone was sitting on the bed!
