爷爷的遗愿

小时候的我性格比较内向，因此非常黏着妈妈。

我记得这件事情发生在我八岁那年。

当时，念小二的我和爸妈住在西部的一间三房式组屋。

事发当日，爸爸出门工作了，只剩下我和妈妈在家。妈妈正在厨房的浴室洗澡而我就蹲在门外等她出来。

等着，等着，我便开始唱起歌来。我正唱的起劲，一抬头往厨房门口的方向望过去时，竟然目睹了一件让人无法解释的一幕！

Creepy Tales From A Bangkok Hotel

Inspired by foongpc's post about his ghostly experience with Penang Hotel, I thought I would share what I had personally encountered in Bangkok.

This happened many years back, when the twelve of us (including four lecturers) from the retail course that I was attending, flew to Bangkok for a field trip.

Upon arrival, the first thing we did was to check into our hotel but due to some miscommunication, the rooms which we had booked earlier were not available.

Fortunately, the frontdesk managed to upgrade us to a suite on a higher floor which provided a splendid bird's eye view of Bangkok's landscape.

Basically, the structure of the hotel was built in a circular shape as shown in the 'cross-section' illustration below.

“阿飘”奇遇记

昨晚，我遇见“阿飘”了！

昨晚还蛮累的所以十点多就爬上床睡了。

无奈，睡不到一个小时就醒了。

我尝试眯着眼继续睡但不知何故就是无法再入眠了…

于是，我开启电脑上网随便游览但渐渐的就搜寻到一些关于灵异的视频。

我疯了吗？

三更半夜看这种令人毛骨悚然的东西干嘛？

我想人就是犯贱！明明很害怕，却又偏偏想要看！

结果看着，看着，就突然觉得全身发麻…

Hungry Ghost Festival: Mystery Of The Falling Chopsticks

via

The Lunar Seventh Month, also known as the Hungry Ghost Festival is celebrated by the Chinese around the world.

Some might confused this with Qing Ming (Tomb Sweeping Festival), when the living pay homeage to the dead; whilst during the Hungry Ghost Festival, the roles are reversed: it's the ghosts and spirits who paid visits to the living.

As Buddhists, my family do not celebrate the Hungry Ghost Festival as true Buddhist teachings do not encourage the burning of material comforts (paper money, clothes, houses, etc) although we do worship the ancestral tablets at home with twice daily incenses.

*Knock Knock* Who's there? It's The Hungry Ghost!

With the Gates of Hell opening and the hungry ghosts set free to wander the streets for the next thirty days, I shall repost an old entry from my previous blog to kick start the annual Hungry Ghost Festival which begins tonight!

Beware!
