Have you ever thought about who is more scary? Man kind or Human we called, or the spirit and sometimes Ghost?
This thought came about when I was talking to two little kids about Ghost and to all children, Ghost had been the most scary part of their growing up. Even some adults still fear about Ghost. I am not spared too. However, I had grown up to accept the fact that we are fear their looks and how they present to us, like in many movies and shows that displayed their sudden appearance and anger towards some individuals.
But... now, human are more scary then Ghost...
Anyone ever encountered Ghost in their life? Some of us did and some just don't wish to talk about it. Do they really exist? Or is it some setup by some prankster to get you out of certain area where they are doing some illeagal activities?
I had one very close encounter with the so call Ghost. I remembered when I was just a young man in my twenties performing night petrol inside my old camp located in Sembawang Naval Base. This was an old Naval training school during the colonial period for the British Soldiers.
During the night pertol, me and my buddy together with couples of new recurits were doing our rounds early in the morning around 2am or so. Our 3rd last check point was the old abandon Muslim cook house, and this is the place where the seniors will warn us to do a quick check and move on to the last building called Wolf block, that was under renovation during then.
Some of the new recurits began to play around with their touch lights when we approach the Muslim cook house and suddenly what shocked me was when they shine their light inside, I thought I saw something moving. On closer look, it was my image reflected on the mirror deep inside the door way. My heart stop pumping for a while and I took a deep breath.. then moved on telling them not to do funny stuff out here.
What happened before had brought it along with us to the Wolf block. Due to the renovation going on then, no corridor lights were put on. We had to climb up to the third storey for our 2nd last rounds and it was pitch dark. As we climbed up the 2nd floor, as usual, you could hear the water running sound coming from the ladies toilet next to the stair well. We will try to ignore it and move on up stair.
On my way up, things wasn't turning right for me. It feel so cold suddenly when the wind blow passed my face and then I could heard a female voice humming somewhere. I pretend not to hear it and signed my rounds on the 3rd floor while my buddy and the rest of the recurits waited at the mid section of the stair well. When I am done, one of the recurits asked if I did heard a female sound.. And that when I knew I am not the only one hearing things. When I said yes, the group of them ran as quickly as they could back to our holding area and left with me and my buddy for one more rounds to do, which is at the other end of the building.
We calmly walked down the stairs and to the 2nd storey corridor, walked towards the other end to finish our rounds. While I was walking, I felt someone was following my back and it came closer and closer. I did not turn around and look, but the familiar voice of the lady was now right behind my ear and I could heard her voice so close that when I turn around I might kiss her on the lips.
I was walking faster and faster as my feet could carry me through.. We reached the final checkpoint. I rushed up and signed even without checking, turn my back and walked down the stair where my buddy was waiting and back to where we started.
And that was my encounter. When I think back I didn't even get to see her face. But was I destoryed or killed or even ripped apart by her? It could be the recurits whom had disturbed her peace when we were at the Muslim cook house. She was maybe pissed and simply want to chase us out.
Comparing to a human, if that happened to him or her and either is a pyscho. Do you think me and my buddy could have survived? We might be hacked to death and buried under the ground for god knows how long then our bodies will be discovered.
Ghost don't do things to harm human rather human had killed human to make them as Ghost and that scares a hell out of everyone.. Ghost..
Moral of my blog is, we watch our back for theives, murderers, terroriests, pyschos, and crazy people. And you don't have to watch your back for Ghost, they don't kill or rob you in day light or night. Like the chinese saying.. "Day light you don't do bad deeds, Night fall you don't have to worry the ghost will come knocking on your door......"
