Authors Note : My friend, Angie
related this incident back to me. She mentioned that although this
story may not be one of the scariest experience she had with
supernatural beings but at that moment, she feared for her
son
On one of the holidays, my family, which consists of my son and
husband decided to go for a short holiday trip together with my
mother and MIL (mother in law). At that time, it seemed like a good
idea and co-incidently although it was a last minute decision,
there was a rooms available in the usually peaked holiday season. 3
days before we took off to Haadyai, Thailand for the holidays, my
son fell sick for 3 days but was however assured by the doctor that
he would heal soon.
On the journey to Haadyai, my son seemed to look better and when we
decided to make the first stop at one of the Kuan Yin Ma Temple, he
was feeling much better already. As soon as we checked to one of
the hotels at Haadyai, Thailand, my son immediately took in fever
and vomitted a little blood. Perhaps it was due to the pizza my
husband ordered for him over lunch.
Strange things started happening while we were having a massage at
our rooms. The hair dryer at the bathroom started to switch on by
itself causing a massive noise at the bathroom. It was only then
that I was informed later the next day by my MIL that it was the
Chinese Ghost Festival day. For a chinese, it would be unwise to
travel during this time of the year and if you happen to be unlucky
and accidently bum into one of the spirits, you may be facing great
danger ahead.
That day, I was fuming with anger over my husbands stupidity. How
could he have made such a decision knowing that it was the time of
the year? That night, we slept soundly. Because my son was still
ill, he slept in between me and my husband. Strange things started
happening again. This time, I heard someone playing the little
bells on my anklet. The funny thing that all this while I was
keeping still, not moving an inch and yet I could hear clearly the
ringing sounds of my anklets little bells. I was dumbstruck.
Fearing that the ghost may disturb my son, I took the courage to
wake up, switched on all the lights including the bathroom lights
and sat up. At this time, my husband woke up and was puzzled of my
actions. I explained to him to caution tonight and he immediately
knew what I meant.
The rest of the night was at peace and after I switch on all the
lights, the room was quiet. Perhaps the naughty ghost just wanted
to play and meant no harm.
