Thai media report sighting of ghost in Udon Thani - expert in the supernatural consulted

Sanook reported on a ghostly experience of two young people in a quiet soi in Udon Thani in Thailand's north east. 

 

They even had a video of still shots of several people pointing to the spot where a headless woman was sighted at night.

 

Now an expert in matters of the supernatural is being consulted to "verify" the sighting.

 

Wiphapha,17, and Phirawat, 18, were on their way to see Wiphapha's aunty after a trip to a department store on Wednesday evening.

 

Wiphapha had to get a few things in a grocer's in Soi Thai Samut 1an area she described as scary because she knew that a man had died in an accident on the bridge there and another person nearby had hanged themselves.

After making her purchases she came out of the shop and found her friend as white as a sheet but he said nothing as he grasped his phone.

 

At aunty's house Phirawat told everyone why he was so shocked. As he waited outside the shop he'd seen the spirit of a headless woman walking across the bridge.

 

He could only make out dark clothing from the knee to the neck. He had the presence of mind to take a picture but was too scared to look at it until later. 

 

Aunty and her husband said it was clearly a spirit out to ask for merit. 

 

But it was certainly scary - so she whipped out some "sai sin" (holy string) and lustral water to assuage matters. 

 

While the phone evidence is being sent to Mor Pla (Dr Fish) an expert in the dark arts. 

 

Sanook - well known for such stories - said this was one that really put the hairs up on the back of your neck.

Ah, something new.

Finger pointing to a headless Ghost

[ezzra]

Thailand's favorite sport, pointing the finger at something... only in Thailand a "ghost" will make the news... if it was a ghost it the ghost of the good times now all gone and evaporated...

All I can see in the second photo is the shadow of a monitor lizard with a hard on.

 How could the ghost see where she was going without a head ?

I'm often thinking about the cute young girl that said to me: »Khun Per, there are so much about Thailand, you don't understand«...

We have a pizza joint out in the boonies in Phitsanulok province and one of the main problems we encounter is parking. In order to alleviate this problem we rent parking spaces from our surrounding neighbors for B500 a weekend. One young man wanted more money and my wife said no. So what did he do? He hung a black coat up in order to drive away the bad juju thereby increasing our need for  additional parking and more money in his pocket. I gave up trying to figure out this mumble jumbo years ago...

"What was the ghost doing?"

"She was trying to get ahead."

 

Or maybe she was looking for her husband

The headless lion tamer from the movie 13 Ghosts, 1960.  I saw it when I was a kid.

...The power of suggestion!

 

Also the blurred figure, if that is what it is, appears to be wearing white not "dark clothing from the knee to the neck", strangely enough, just like the young lady pointing in the video!

In Thailand there are plenty of ghosts. In the USA it's UFOs. Same same but different.

 

We had a ghost in my house in London, apparently. My mother and sister saw her, not me, although when I was an infant I started singing a nursery rhyme and my mother asked how I knew it as she hadn't taught it to me, and I told her an old lady had sat on my bed and taught me. So a kindly ghost. But in Thailand for some reason they are always evil. I wonder why that is.

[Sydebolle]

Possibly the governor himself?

Most of the Thai's I know believe in ghosts, even educated people.

 

One night I watched the original Ghostbusters movie with my wife. She was surprised when I told her it wasn't a documentary.

 

But I will let her know we've now learned the answer to "Who Ya Gonna Call?". The answer is apparently Mor Pla (Dr. Fish).

So what? In the rurral village of my GF ghosts are seen night by night ????

[StayinThailand2much]

As long as they don't call the Thai police, as they, reportedly, are 'afraid of ghosts, too'...

[Rayfromwangchompoo]

When I lived there, (UDORN)

every Thai I knew believed in

Ghost. The Thais had more superstitions than anyone.

When my mother passed, a Thai told me that if I bent over and looked between my legs, I could see my mother's face. The friend ask me did I see anything, I told her yes,

My family jewels!

One of the early stories I heared when I was new in Thailand, told by a cute young lady from Isan was like that:

"As kids when we were out after dark and saw a ghost, we just turned our backs to it, tore down our pants a bit and shaked our butts. Because that would scare the ghost an it left us alone."

What I see is each finger points to a different cardinal point????
