♥ Hungry Ghost Month 2011
This year's Hungry Ghost Month arrive earlier than last year. They say that this year's ghost will be more fierce than previous years. I wonder why say so? Is it due to the natural disasters? Death toll increased a lot since last year. More and more people died due to disasters and accidents. The tsunami and earthquake took a lot of lives this year. Global warming ain't a joke! More disasters might coming and the coming years' Hungry Ghost Month will be getting more fierce than this year.
Some people who are sensitive will know our "good friends" presence during this month. I have experience in encounter our "good friends" during Secondary School. Same goes to my family members. All of them seen the "good friends" mostly during the lunar 7th Month (Hungry Ghost Month). Most of the people say that Singapore is consider one of the most haunted country. In my opinion, Malaysia and Singapore is equally haunted and had almost the same type of spirits/ghost. For example, "Banana-tree ghost", a female ghost which dwells in a banana tree, often haunting under the tree by appearing at night and wailing sadly, sometimes carrying a baby. Folk tales in Singapore and Malaysia tell stories of greedy people asking for lottery numbers from this ghost by tying a red string around the tree trunk and sticking sharp needles into it, then tie the other end of the string to his/her bed. At night, the ghost will appear at the bed of the person asking for mercy and granting the person lottery numbers. After winning the lottery prize money, if the person did not fulfill the promise to set the ghost free, he/she will meet with a tragic death. The Hungry Ghost is the most common ghost on the streets. They roam the streets for foods.
My encounters were all in Malaysia. I find it Malaysia is much more haunted than Singapore as all my previous encounters were there. I have been staying in Singapore and I heard quite some stories from the fellow folks here.
My first encounter was during Secondary 1. It was late evening of lunar 7 month. I reached home about 7 something in the night and was prepare to bath. When I opened my old cupboard, I saw a little girl sitting in it. I was shocked and uttered bad words. It vanished in the air.
My last encounter was at school. During Secondary 4 late-afternoon, in the music club room, my friend and I was in the club room chatting. The club room was initially a female toilet and it was un-used. The school authorities turned the toilet into a club room so that they can keep their guitars in the room for co-curriculum activities. The last door for the cubicle were close and there was no one in there at that time. My friend and I was curious and opened the door. I saw a shadow of a man squatting on the table and it rushed towards me. I was shocked. A force came out of the room and paralyzed my face. I had difficulties in breathing at that moment. I run out of the club room so that I could breathe easily. The club room is a concealed room. No sunlight can go into the room. The room has been chill for a very long time. I cry out of shock and difficulty of breathing. This was the worst encounter ever.
I do not wish to encounter any of this anymore as my last encounter terrified me.
*Wish all the "GOOD FRIENDS" have a fun Hungry Ghost Festival!*
