Sentosa Colonial Bungalow

  Story taken from: https://asiaghosts.com/ & https://asiaghosts.com/sentosa-colonial-bungalow/ One of my friends managed to secure a renovated colonial resort at Sentosa, its those sort of corporate owned mansion actually. Humongous, looks damn old on the outside but the interior was top notch. it had a very very nice view, out of the balcony u can see Siloso Beach. But other then that the surrounding was very very dark and deserted. Its near to the Sentosa holiday resorts (those with air shelter built in front of them), in fact they were in the same area. I guess some of u guys who visited there should know wad i mean by DARK and SPOOKY.. So we few guys decided to stay for a full week ourselves, the adults left after the 4th day cause they grew bored of mahjong and TV, and being the adventurous pre-teens we were, we decided to explore the surrounding areas. There was this much larger and dilapidated mansion on top of a hill beside our place, wahaha i think back now and still wha

Tenant Who Didn’t Leave

  Story taken from: https://asiaghosts.com/ & https://asiaghosts.com/tenant-who-didnt-leave/ After I left my job as an Assistant Professor from Nanyang Technological University, I decided to set up a small company in CBD area. And I chose an office with a magnificent view on 37th floor at International Plaza, Tanjong Pagar. It was considered as a small sized office with merely 1500sq.ft. However it fits my business strategy as a start-up of a freelance IT consultant firm with manpower of about six. The rental is quite affordable too, well below the market-rate. I particularly like the furnishing that is so posh – cherry and walnut wood made of European style fittings. It has its unique class of elegance in contrast of metal-and-glass modern design. The view is magnificent too. You can see most of the landmark buildings in Singapore, such as UOB towers, SIA building, DBS, Maybank and Capital Tower from the height of 37 storey. You may wonder why I tried to describe the office envi

Changi Beach Incident

  Story taken from: https://asiaghosts.com/ & https://asiaghosts.com/changi-beach-incident/ This is a real life incident that happened to my close friends who are Christians. They are the least superstitious so when they related the encounter to me. I knew they are not pulling my legs. My friend, an avid angler, would often go around the beaches to recce for good fishing spots whenever he has time. So, there was this one afternoon he happened to pass by Changi beach (the stretch along the air cargo complex) and decided to go take a look. It was low tide and part of the sea bed is visible. As he walked along the beach, he spotted 2 flower pots lying on the sea bed. He decided to take! a closer look and on examination, found those pots were in perfect condition and of very nice design too. As his mother-in-law loves gardening, he decided to take the pots home and give it to her. Those pots were very nice and she would definitely like it, he thought. So, carrying a pot each in his h

Tekong Kampung Unum

  Story taken from: https://asiaghosts.com/ & https://asiaghosts.com/tekong-kampung-unum/ During my NS, I was a recruit in a warrant company. I heard several stories about my company (it was a company which is directly beside the sea) but I did not experienced anything during the first three months of my BMT. I was posted to SISPEC to undergo training after BMT. SISPEC was still in Tekong during that time and I was posted to a company that is at the far end of SISPEC (Echo/Foxtrot/Golf). Not going to share which company I was at. Anyway, each bunk/section only had 10 beds instead of the 12 beds in BMTC. I was assigned Bed 6. Imagine you are standing at the entrance of the bunk, there are 5 beds on your left and 5 beds on your right, with Bed 1 nearest to you on your left and Bed 5 furthest away on your left. Similarly, Bed 6 is the bed furthest away on your right. This meant that my bed was right beside the window and right opposite the forest. First week of training passed and n

Ended up they got the general feedback from both master, like which orientation should the flat be facing , example like facing north, etc etc, and also factor in like sunrise light or
