 3) POCONG

 

A Pocong is supposedly the ghost of a dead person trapped in its shroud. Old folklore believes that when a person dies, their soul will still be on earth for 40 days.

How to Identify a Pocong

When a Muslim is buried, their body will be wrapped from head to foot in a white fabric. Like a mummy. The fabric will be tied over the head, under the feet, and on the neck. If the ties are not removed after 40 days, the body will, apparently, jump out from the grave to let people know that its soul needs to be released from its shroud. Because the tie is around its feet, the Pocong will not be able to walk, causing it to hop around.

How to Identify a Pocong

Simple, when you see a mummy like figure hopping about, you will know that it is a Pocong.

What Will It Do?

Nothing. It just wants to warn people that someone needs to remove the ties binding it so it can leave earth, never to return again.

How Do I Fight it?

Do the poor thing a favour and remove its ties. How else will it move on?

 4) HANTU RAYA

 

No, this is not the spirit of Hari Raya. 'Hantu' translated spirit in Malay and "Raya" translates to big in Malay. The Hantu Raya is a strong and dangerous spirit which takes its instructions from a human master. Said the master of all spirits be, the Hantu Raya is compared together with a demon. The Hantu Raya forms a pact with its human owner, by acquiring them strength and certain advantages in life, such as wealth. In return, the owner or master, must be of the spirit and to ensure that it has a new owner before dying. This usually ends with the Hantu Raya, handed down from generation to generation.
How to draw a Hantu Raya Identify
This is not an easy task, but if you observe well, you will find indications pointed to in the direction. If the owner dies without untying his attachment to the spirit, the owner suffer enormously when you die. The Hantu Raya are then to take on the form of the owner and run around for food and a new owner. He does so only at night, and it will also follow. Customers who see this will be mistaken to think that the deceased back to life. Another story says that if the owner did not solve his bond with the Spirit, they are not able at all to die. You will suffer, and become a living corpse, like a zombie. The Hantu Raya eats usually some kind of sacrifice, which contains yellow sticky rice, eggs, fried chicken, rice flakes and..a doll! They are also seen drinking the blood of a slaughtered animal.
What will it do?
The Hantu Raya can be tricky, in addition to being dangerous, that is. It is sometimes take the form of its owner, if the owner is still alive, and sleep with the partners of the owners!As instructed by the owners, the Hantu Raya is to possess to be able to harm people to death and miscarriage.

How can I fight it?We are not quite sure about this. As mentioned above, the Hantu Raya is usually passed down from generation to generation. If you know a way to do get rid of this, please let us know. Until then, just do not pray your family hand you a ghost for your birthday.

5) PELESIT

 

Pelesit is another kind of inherited spirit or demon which works under a master. It is said to be the female version of the Hantu Raya. It gives its owner great power, and is usually kept by women who uses it for protection, guidance, and yes, to harm other people as well.

How to Identify a Pelesit

The Pelesit is commonly associated with grasshoppers because it can easily turn into one. So if you see a green, sharp pointed-head grasshopper, squash it with your boots. Or better yet, just run away.

What Will it Do?

The owner of a Pelesit will usually use it for monetary gains. Usually controlled by a shaman, or bomoh, in Malay, the Pelesit will be ordered to attack a random person, making people believe that a bomoh is needed to exorcise the spirit in its victim. Once the bomoh has “exorcised” the Pelesit from the victim, they will be paid a sum of money as a token of appreciation.  This may sound harmless, but it is not. Things can go wrong and all hell may break lose. The Pelesit is a dark spirit. It feeds on blood, usually that of its master, and basically causes fear by terrorizing people. The Pelesit must always have an owner, which means it will have to be passed down from one generation to the next. It needs to be taken care of constantly and fed. If not, the demon will create havoc in the area it is kept in, especially when its master has passed on and it has no one to hang on to.

How Do I Fight it?

We are not sure on how you would fight this one as well. The best you can do, if you find yourself with a Pelesit thanks to your ancestors, is to take care of it properly. If you know of a way to get rid of it, do let us know.

 

Ghost Cambodia....

This incident happened while I was on vacation with my mother in Cambodia, and since then it stuck with me. That was in 2008 and I was lounging at home. Having just out of high school, I did not know what I do with my life, so I decided to take a break from hunting after school to go to find out, take. It was on a warm evening, when my mother asked me if I wanted to visit my grandmother. I jumped at the chance and said yes, why not, since I (I was unemployed at the time, so nothing stopped me) nothing to do here. I was surprised at how quickly my mother acquired our flight tickets, but I ask only rarely in question, as it does these things. So we got ready and packed, and left the following week.


My father, sister and brother went to say goodbye and wished us a good time staying in Cambodia. After three days in an airplane and terrible food, we reached our destination, and were greeted by our relatives. It was great to see family, especially because they live so far away. We then traveled to my relatives in town and stayed for a couple days before we crossed into the landscape, which lasted about 4 hours. Upon arrival, unpacked and ended up staying there for 2 weeks we have. During this period, however, was probably one of my scariest moments in life.
After they set in the city the country, decided me and my mother, my grandmother, which is about 15 minutes away from where we were living. We left the next morning, and my cousin accompanied us there. Once we the small village, which to reach the city look like a city, I met up with my grandmother and uncle. We greeted each other and prepared a feast. My uncles were amazed at my appearance (at the time I was 6 '2 "and 180 weighed what is great for an Asian) to interrogate, and they held me. We laughed at him, and just enjoy each others company Thereafter, the food was complete, and we all feasted. It tasted so good, much better than this airline junk. After each consumes a hefty amount of delicious food, we decided to relax and check. It was in the afternoon when the sun is high , and the heat reached its peak. My uncle went to the cattle tend and take care of farm work. I, my mother and grandmother, decided in my grandmothers head / Huts and a short nap. Well, the way my Grandmother house was established, it was a huge room with 2 beds and 4 barred windows. There was a bed for 2 of the 4 windows and a deck chair. I took refuge in a deck chair while my grandmother and mother took in their beds.
I stared at the ceiling while you talk my grandmother to me and my mother. My mother scolded me scolding for being a lazy ass while getting in return from her mother. I chuckled, and closed his eyes. At that time my mother was holding a hand fan, the, use the fan itself. I was listening to her fan herself, and she suddenly stopped. I thought nothing of it, and dozed. I woke up an hour later, and it was time for us to get into the city, we were returning resident. My cousin came to pick us up, and I promised goodbye to my grandmother and to visit the next day.
If we my cousin home (the place where we for the next 2 weeks) My aunt and uncle had begun to close up shop achieved. You own a pharmacy, and distributed medicine, while my uncle, a doctor had, early, to help close up back. I interfered, trying to make myself useful. After all, we freshened up and ate. After lunch and chatting it up, it was time for bed. I climbed into my bed, while my mother went into her room. The room I slept my aunt and uncle. As the lights went out, it was pitch dark, and I got goose bumps just stared into the black. I have an overactive imagination and began to be paranoid, but I told myself to calm down and close my eyes, I finally did. Hours went by, when I heard my mother and aunt in the chat in the kitchen. It's always interesting to hear an adult, so that my inquisitive nature gave way. What my mother discussed in the next few minutes ended any kind of hope, me back to sleep.
My mother had told her sister of the event that happened at my grandmothers house. She said that, while fanning himself and to try to get a good nap, a whisper to tell her to stop, she heard. She thought nothing of it, and sat Fanning. Then she stayed Fanning, not because they wanted to, but because they could not, because everything that spoke to her, she kept fanning out also. Again, the voice became clearer and demanded to stop my mother to Fanning, and let it do. My mother said no, and that she could do it yourself. Apparently heard the whispers, was a ghost or specter, telling no fan myself, and let them do it for them, according to my mother. When I heard that my mouth open, and I wondered how it all happened in an hour.
Well, I am a firm believer in the supernatural and paranormal, because there are things that happen in this world that are inexplicable. After hearing that, I was paralyzed with fear. All I could do was remember that incident because I heard them stop Fanning. I got goose bumps and a shiver went down my spine. My aunt and mother continue to talk and then went to bed. I, placed on the other side in my bed and stared into the darkness, paranoid and sleepy. I closed my eyes quickly and covered myself with the blanket. I feel eventually fell asleep and woke up the next morning.
The next few weeks were pretty normal, and we soon be home (in the US). I was so glad to be back home, and told me never to go back to Cambodia. I ended up 2 more times.


  

Thai's Spirit....

One thing that you need to know about Thai culture is that Thais take spirits very seriously. And in this nation haunted places and ghost stories, nothing more is known as the legend of Mae Nak Phra Khanong. It's lost a bone-chilling tale of love and eternal love (or would be the undead devotion?) That every Thai knows well. The story has been recreated on stage, for TV, and in movies dozens of times, so that it is the Thai equivalent of Dracula or Frankenstein. It was not until recently, however, that I found out this ghost story based on real events, and you can easily visit the scene of haunting during a trip to Bangkok.The setting of this ghostly tale is the Phra Konong district of Bangkok in the mid-19th century. At that time, Bangkok was not yet in the urban jungle, it is today. It was much more a real jungle-or rather a swamp with a large number of canals and rivers joining forces with the main waterway, the Chao Phraya River. The main form of transport in those days was by boat, and the lifestyle of the people was closely linked to the rivers and canals. Phra Khanong is such a small river that flows through the south-eastern outskirts of the capital, even though at that time the area was so rural that it essentially part of the landscape.A young married couple lived in a house on the shore of Phra Khanong. Their names were Mak and his wife Nak. Siam was at the time of the exercise of authority over a large part of Southeast Asia. And Mak is recruited to serve during their campaigns in the border areas in the military. With much sadness, he sets out his own country to serve, while behind his pregnant wife. In the battle, Mak is badly wounded and he has to spend several months Thonburi, just across the river from Bangkok to recover.


                                         In his absence Nak goes to work, but something goes wrong. The delivery is fraught with difficulties, and the mother and her baby could die during childbirth. According to Thai beliefs, a pregnant woman who dies together with her child powerful and terrifying kind of ghosts creates possible. Faced with such a bad omen, the villagers did not wear a proper cremation of the corpse by Buddhist tradition, and instead hastily buried the body in a shallow grave.Mae Nak disembodied consciousness is full of devotion to her husband, and she finds herself not to move in a position to their next birth. The power of this system is so strong that her mind manifesting in a position on a physical body and her husband spell, so that the house seems to be kept and not abandoned and overgrown, as it actually is. After several months passed, Mak is well enough to return home, where he waited for his wife and newborn child found on him. While he was gone, he has never received word of her early death of someone, and he is unaware of the true situation.Slowly Mak begins to realize that something is wrong when his old friends and acquaintances in the village to avoid him. Some dare to tell him the truth of what happened, but he did not accept the fact that he live with a ghost bride. But then the real horror begins. In the middle of the night, the Spirit of Nak attacks and kills all that her husband the truth, so she is afraid of losing him if he know of their true state were to warn tries.There are several versions of what happened next, but one of the most telling, as Mak is finally convinced of the truth. Traditional Thai houses built on raised posts about two feet off the ground as protection against floods. One evening, Nak is busy, a chili paste and a lime falls through a space in the floorboards accidentally. Not seeing anyone around, she reaches down through the gap in the floor and stretches out her ghostly arm full two meters to get the lime on the ground. Mak just happened to be outside, next to the house, and as this causes him to come to their senses.


                                      
Another popular detail of the story is that he leans forward as he looks at and between his legs. When he does this, the true state he sees his abandoned house-full of dust and cobwebs and overgrown with jungle vines.Later that evening, he makes an excuse to go outside (probably to pee), and then runs off to the village temple Wat Mahabut. When he gets to the temple, the monks create a protective circle with a white thread in the middle of the ordination hall, and they sing begin to hold the mind in check. Nak is furious and chases him in the temple, saying some accounts, she was able to enter the ordination hall and seemed to stand on his head on the ceiling, but was finally held in check.What happened next depends on various versions of the story. Some say her ghost was captured by an exorcist and sealed in a ceramic vessel. The vessel was then thrown into the river, where he remained for several years. But then, one day, some fishermen pulled up and opened the glass accidentally releasing Nak the spirit again haunt the people of Phra Khanong.Nak troubled mind will eventually by the highly revered monk Somdej Toh, who digs up her body and removed dampened an oval piece of bone from his forehead. He convinced them within the bone with the promise that they will have to be combined with Mak in a future life. It is said that Somdej Toh secured This bone as an amulet in his waistcloth and kept it with him at all times. The current location of the bone amulet is a mystery, although it is generally believed that she slipped over the Prince of Chumphon, Abhakara Kiartivongse into the hands of the royal family at one point.


                                     
The story of Mae Nak was last on the big screen in 2013, retold as a comedy version called Pee Mak (พี่ มาก .. พระโขนง), which is the story from the perspective of spirits man Nak and his buddy who fought at his side told in the army. With a cast of popular young stars was Pee Mak the highest grossing film of all time Thai.One of the most well-made traditional narratives of history was reached in the 1999 film Nang Nak. If you have the time, you can watch the entire movie with English subtitles. It makes a great introduction to the story of Mae Nak and gives you an insight into the typical way of life along the waterways of the 19th century Siam.

Kuman Thong: Thai's Golden Boy ghost...

If you know something about Thais, you will know that they are. Seriously afraid of ghosts That's why it might be surprising to know that millions of Thais voluntarily invite a ghost to stay in their home or business. Of course, this is not Krasue-rather we are talking about a cute little boy ghost called Kuman Thong as a specter as the desperate Mae Nak or the grotesque Phi. The name "Kuman Thong" means "Golden Boy", and as you can imagine, give Thais a small child haunted a place on their shrines in the belief that it will help you in money matters.But his help comes at a price. If you decided to bring Kuman in your home, you can avoid the obligation, have accepted to take care of him. If a neglected child into a rage-how much more, if the child is throwing a ghost? How many things spiritual in Thailand seems Kuman Thong, a mixture of truth and superstition. But after sticking to live with him for a year, I believe, enough in him to not want anything to do with him again.

            

Kuman Thong history

A real Kuman Thong is not a smiling plastic statues that you see in so many shrines around Thailand. The original and true Kuman Thong is something very sinister and taboo art of black magic in his darkest. To make Kuman Thong, one must first surgically remove a stillborn fetus from the womb. A ceremony must be performed by someone well-trained in the ancient secrets of Thai animist necromancy. In a cemetery, at night, the dead baby is dry roasted over a fire, while the Necromancer sings the necessary mantras and secret incantations that to bind the spirit of stillbirth it. After drying, the body is covered in paint and gold leaf, which is the original reason for the name Kuman Thong.In an authentic version of the ceremony, a substance called Nam-Man phrai is also applied to the body. The method for collecting Nam Man phrai is pretty spooky in itself. It involves burning a candle under the chin of the body of a woman who died during pregnancy, and collecting the oil that comes out of the skin. It is said to be powerful stuff and is used in all sorts of folk magic as crafting love spells, although genuine Nam Man is phrai illegal.The origin of production Kuman Thong appears in the folk legend Khun Chang Khun Phaen, which are found based on the life of a soldier in the Ayutthaya era. In the history Khun Phaen makes the first Kuman Thong from the fetus to the unborn child of his dead wife.Nowadays real Kuman Thong have been mostly replaced by symbolic statues, showing a little boy in traditional Ayutthaya era clothing. Kuman has his hair be carried out in a small bun and is often associated with a small sack of gold.So keep Kuman ThongKuman Thong a house and set up a small shrine to him is a bit like the adoption of a new child. It is believed that Kuman can grant favors for his master, but only if he is happy and even then there may be unintended side effects.


                    
                                                          Sala' fruit

Taking care of the Kuman involves giving him something to eat and drink every day. He has to do a sweet tooth like most little boys, and so sweets, biscuits or other snacks are as good food offerings. For drinks, he likes Nam Daeng exclusively. Nam Daeng means "red water" and is a type of beverage sweetened with bright red artificial colorings and flavorings from the sala fruit (Salacca wallichiana) is manufactured. In place of the traditional Nam Daeng, Red Fanta is acceptable.All gods and spirits in Thailand seem these sweet red drink that I suspect has to enjoy become a substitute in the Buddhist times for animistic blood sacrifice of the distant past.Since Kuman is a child, it is also very common for people to have a toy to play for him. Just like a real child, Kuman need attention. You have to confirm its presence, you speak to him at some point, and so on, and then he will be nice and help you. Otherwise, he could play tricks on you. People who Kuman to keep at home are often reported have, strange things happen, such as hearing phantom sounds running around the child's laughter or the sound of small steps, as if a child were playing. Other typical poltergeist activity can occur as moving doors seem to open or close on its own and other items.You can not just get rid of only a Kuman Thong, once you have it-that would already ask for a disturbance. Instead, you are an undesirable Kuman to a temple, where a sort of ritual can be done to take it to release from the burden of caring for the spirit.

Dark Side Of The Kuman Craze

The vast majority of Kuman Thong that you see are plastic or wooden statues. Various small metal amulets, which are called the power of Kuman Thong also very popular. But the dark side of Kuman popularity is that it still exists of a stillborn or aborted fetus made a black market for the original type of Kuman. In May 2012, a Taiwanese-born British citizen, was arrested in Bangkok with six gold covered baby human corpses in his luggage. He had purchased and intended to sell them in Taiwan for a profit in Thailand.Wat Phai Ngoen In 2010, in Bangkok, the scene of a gristly discovery than 348 aborted fetuses was found on the premises. The temple was helping to dispose the body from illegal abortion clinics, and it is believed that some of the practitioners of black magic were sold.

Life with Ghost-Boy 1 year

                        

                            Would you get spooked out with this guy in your living room?

 I learned for the first time, over Kuman Thong when I rented a house for a year, which he is already living in. My landlady-a 50-something-year-old Thai-Chinese woman was very in any spiritual practice that was supposed to bring wealth or good fortune. She had previously lived in the house with her family and had kept the shrine intact. It contained a few Buddha images, one of the Hindu god Shiva, and three statues of Kuman Thong. The largest of the Kuman statues looked positively ancient and totally creeped me out.I would often strange dreams while living in this house alone and never really felt. A couple of times I was in the middle of the night by loud noises that sounded like objects aroused children moved around. Later I found out that there was a rat to fight always in the house, and I think the noise came from there with another animal (possibly a snake?) In the attic. So if the strange noises were of Kuman, the rat, or just have an overactive imagination coming-I think I can never be sure. The only thing I was sure of is that I was annoyed by the landlady for leaving Kuman at home and sticking me with the task of him cookies and red water per day.During the year, I lived with Kuman, he certainly is not any help with finance still has the landlord give me if it was time to return my deposit.

Just like a real child, Kuman need attention. You have to confirm its presence, you speak to him at some point, and so on, and then he will be nice and help you. Otherwise, he could play tricks on you. People who Kuman to keep at home are often reported have, strange things happen, such as hearing phantom sounds running around the child's laughter or the sound of small steps, as if a child were playing. Other typical poltergeist activity can occur as moving doors seem to open or close on its own and other items.You can not just get rid of only a Kuman Thong, once you have it-that would already ask for a disturbance. Instead, you are an undesirable Kuman to a temple, where a sort of ritual can be done to take it to release from the burden of caring for the spirit.

Dark Side Of The Kuman Craze

The vast majority of Kuman Thong that you see are plastic or wooden statues. Various small metal amulets, which are called the power of Kuman Thong also very popular. But the dark side of Kuman popularity is that it still exists of a stillborn or aborted fetus made a black market for the original type of Kuman. In May 2012, a Taiwanese-born British citizen, was arrested in Bangkok with six gold covered baby human corpses in his luggage. He had purchased and intended to sell them in Taiwan for a profit in Thailand.Wat Phai Ngoen In 2010, in Bangkok, the scene of a gristly discovery than 348 aborted fetuses was found on the premises.

                            Would you get spooked out with this guy in your living room?

 I learned for the first time, over Kuman Thong when I rented a house for a year, which he is already living in. My landlady-a 50-something-year-old Thai-Chinese woman was very in any spiritual practice that was supposed to bring wealth or good fortune. She had previously lived in the house with her family and had kept the shrine intact. It contained a few Buddha images, one of the Hindu god Shiva, and three statues of Kuman Thong. The largest of the Kuman statues looked positively ancient and totally creeped me out.I would often strange dreams while living in this house alone and never really felt. A couple of times I was in the middle of the night by loud noises that sounded like objects aroused children moved around. Later I found out that there was a rat to fight always in the house, and I think the noise came from there with another animal (possibly a snake?) In the attic. So if the strange noises were of Kuman, the rat, or just have an overactive imagination coming-I think I can never be sure. The only thing I was sure of is that I was annoyed by the landlady for leaving Kuman at home and sticking me with the task of him cookies and red water per day.During the year, I lived with Kuman, he certainly is not any help with finance still has the landlord give me if it was time to return my deposit.
