Haunted Ria Apartment, Genting Highlands
What was supposed to be a happy holiday turned out to be a nightmare to a friend of mine, Sheryn, when something unexpected happened to she and another 2 girlfriend of hers. Planning to enjoy the cool breezy hilltop resort, they planned out to travel with a group of friends. What they didn’t know was their choice of accomodation, Ria Apartment, Genting Highlands was haunted.
It started out when a group of them planned for a stumptuous dinner at thier rented apartment. So it turned out that a group of them went out to enjoy the breeze, another group of males planned to checkout the whole resort and as for Sheryn and another 2 of her girlfriends, they decided to be the chefs and stayed back to cook the dinner.
All was fun at the kitchen when she and her friends gathered to prepare the ingrediants when suddenly they hear noises from the living room. The noises were really loud and sounded like people enjoying themselves with a game of mahjong. Sheryn could hear people talking loudly and calling out the game’s card and thought that her group of friends were back from their short walk. She then get a glimpse of the living room to see who was back and asked them to help out instead.
As soon as she stepped out of the kitchen, the noises mysteriously stopped. To her astonishment, there wasn’t a single soul. Curious that she might hear things wrongly (although she was positively sure she heard the noises), she walked back into the kitchen wondering. Again, the noises started as mysteriously as it stopped. Her 2 girlfriends looked as frightened as she was when they realized that the apartment was haunted
Quickly, she and her girlfriends decided to stop cooking and hang out at the living room instead. All the 3 girls were still very much afraid when the walked into the living room. Because they were so scared of hearing the mysterious noises again, one of her friends suggested to turn the radio on.
The 3 of them walked towards the radio when all of a sudden Sheryn heard someone from behind calling her “Wui!”. Automatically, Sheryn turned her head to have a look at who was that and yet, there was no one except her 2 other friends who were too busy meddling with the radio’s switches.
Author’s Note : Sheryn never told me what really happened after that but I personally stayed in the apartment before and there’s always a creepie feeling about the whole location

This happened last year 7th September when me and my gal friend stayed there. Everything started after we came back from dinner at 10 pm.
We hit the bed at 11 p.m since we are exhausted after the activities in Theme Park. I closed the room door while my gal fren was doing the prayers with her bible.Once she is done with the prayers we started to talk stories when we suddenly heard something . The sound of a door closing and opening on its own.
The first thing came to my mind is wind. I went out to the living room to check out.It was the kitchen room. I guess those who went to ria Aparment knows how the kitchens door look like . There is no door knob on the door. So i get the Star newspaper which i bought earlier from the 3rd floor minimart to be used as door stopper. I fold the paper and stuff it under the door to make it stop moving.
It was a success . The door stopped moving and i feel relieved.
I went back to room and closed the door. I told my gal fren that nothing to be worried as its only the wind .We continued to chat for sometime before we heard the same sound again. This time i really got the goosebumps outta my body.
My gal fren took back her bible and started to pray loudly. I went back to check what happened actually before i found the newspaper was moved from the door and relocated few metres away from where i located it.And it was in a proper condition. If it was blewn by the wind there is no chances for the paper to be in proper condition.
I knew something was really wrong in the house but we dont have an option but to spend the night there in fear. The next day we moved early morning as 8 am and we checked in at Resort Hotel.
Few weeks back ,me , my brother and cousins went to Ria Apartment again . Nothing happened there .A week after that one of my cousin showed symptoms like being possesed. I dont want to talk about it much because he is my best cousin ever.
People out there !! Watch out !! I hope you people wont go tru the same shit i went tru….

I got a story about genting as well. but this time it is about the first world hotel. me, a guy fren, and two girls stayed in a suiet at the top floor for a few nights. it was 14-16/oct/2005, after our pmr exams. during the second night we chatted and played cards until around 1 am and fell asleep with the tv on to a jet li movie(forgotten which wan). me and my guy fren shared one queen bed while the girls took the another. ours was just beside the window which we kept shut since it was a cold night. at about 3 am, me and my fren next to me woke up. we heard noises. eery noises. it sounded like an old cantonese man singing. singing a sad sad tune. it was like a lament. and the worse thing was that the sound came from above us. and yet we were staying at the top floor. wat was up there?
we dare not tell the girls because we were supposedly not suppose to tell about ghosts when they come in case they disturb us. but on the way home the next day we told them and they confirmed it when they said that they heard strange noises in the bathroom as well.
genting is really haunted. wat with all the suicides and other deaths, i’m not surprised. i bet that sooner or later, sightings of a headless woman walking around will be reported. this is because one woman was killed not too long ago when her hair got stuck at the top of the solero shot. her whole body came down without her head.
i had a similiar experience as mamarock. when i was sleeping(not in genting) i could feel a weight on me. i couldnt breathe properly. and i tought i could see movements around me. but i cannot move a single muscle. when i try to shout, no sound came. it will go away a short while later. this happened a few times and everytime it was the same, restricted movement, no sound, but blurred sight. it may just be a recurring nightmare, but it happen to many of the ppl i’ve met.

few experiences of ria apartment before it became a private own apartment:
1. elevator mysteriously go up to 15th floor, open-close-open-close, and down to 13th floor, up to 15th floor again, and finally back to my 17th floor.
2. toillet light mysteriously switch on (can be assume that it is lack of repair)
3. weeping voice from penthouse 22nd floor.
4. eerie feeling that some1 is following you everytime you’re in kayangan or ria. (assume because we are overimaginative).
oh and endnote: there’s an abonden room in kayangan apartment first floor. everything inside is totally emptied. it is cool, given that you like to challenge yourself to meet the unknowns ^^

I worked part-time at Genting for about 4 years from 2001-2005. Ria apartment was my hostel and I had stayed in different units (4th floor, 12th floor, 13 floor, 11 floor, you tell me) in the Selangor tower. Honestly, the place does look spooky. But I did not encounter anything except a few incidences where minor things happened like water tap turned on by itself, the window next to my bunk bed opened by itself.. but never saw ‘anything’. However, many of my collegues told me stuffs that they experienced but Im skeptical about them. Mind could do the tricks you know. When u are afraid, it will get to you even more easily because you are a ‘easy target’. So, try stay calm and not think about it. I had morning shifts and guess what, I had to walk to another apartment early in the morning through the hallway (in between the elevators) to my collegues’ apartment so that we could go to work together. Nothing happened although it was spooky. But i survived for many years, as well as some others who have worked there for many years (i know a few and they told me they did not experience anything major) and even some still working in Genting.
Try not to be too paranoid about staying in Ria. It will help if you are calm. Good luck all!

wow!!this is some stories…well, i dont know whether its true or not..as my fren always mentioned, good place to bring a chick..;)..i bet seeing is believing after all..nice comments, should go there and experience ownself
June 24th, 2008 at 2:22 pm

Genting IS haunted. I’ve heard so much about Ria Apartments and probably the stories you’ve heard explains why the lobby is quiet most of the time.Almost once in every 1 month or twice in 3 months, suicides are likely to happen (mostly gamblers who’ve lost their luck). Plus,it’s pretty cold up there. Only ppl with tough guts would most likely stay there and not experience anything but the weak hearted will. From babies cry,hearing ppl playing mahjong,someone calling out your name,something cold touched the back of your neck,main door opens and closes by itself,to witnessing an activity in an abandoned floor etc,seeing a figure in the mirror,I say I don’t really suggest staying there if you want to have the time of your life in the ‘city of entertainment’. Let’s not spoil the fun now alright!
July 7th, 2008 at 11:24 pm
Please enjoying the good place without frigntening each other. the world do have ghost.., just like we do have a god. treat “they are normal” if you r real buddish, you know… well.. this is nothing to be scare.
July 10th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
if you see a woman ghost just fuck her in the ass dont worry…..Genting is haunted.I stayed there last 3 years in Ria apart.I saw a woman in white dress flying with a long hair and dont have legs,maybe her legs been decapitated I guess.So it was early in the morning around 3am,I saw her flying left and right on the 22 floor window from my room.i was really pissed off,the reason i go there to bring back home some spirits which is normally done by the BLACK METAL.So I manage to catch a kid spirit.Untill now i still have the kid spirit…..normally I will bring it with me when I have Ritual to be done.RIA APARTMENT IS REALLY FOR BLACK METAL throne……..take care.
August 19th, 2008 at 2:24 am

August 20th, 2008 at 9:52 pm
Well…
i’ve never actualy see ghose in genting ria appartment before…(but i do belive in them)
but i do have a friend who told me that when she came back from genting on a bus, the bus driver(which is a fierce woman) suddenly shouted foul words and say if you wanna take a ride on my bus you better dont disturb my pessenger in cantonese…
i assume that she’s either making jokes or realy scolding the ghost(if they realy existed)
for those people who never seen anything during their stay does’nt mean they dont exist rite?
September 28th, 2008 at 8:07 pm
wow…didnt know before genting is surrounded by ghosts @ haunted until i read all the above stories…i stayed in Ria Apartments around 10years ago with a friend.we chose that hotel cuz the rate vv good n the only available.the apartment is so damn big n has good facilities too..it has 3 rooms but we end up share the same room cuz it was very scary at nite.very quiet place cuz its quite isolated from other hotels (which is good for honeymooners)but thank god we were not disturbed by the ghost or encountered any spooky incidents,instead we were disturbed by the staff there…cuz we were 2 unaccompanied hot chicks ..hehehe..(or maybe the ghosts got scared after they saw us)…heheh…anyway,intend to go to genting again with family but will think 100 times wether to overnite or not….
November 9th, 2008 at 11:05 pm
plan to stay there this month end. now i’m thinking twice.
November 14th, 2008 at 7:49 pm
hi guys, after looking thro’ what you guys type i m not going there as i have planned to. No point spending money and get scared and worse if you bump into any of those.. When i was a kid, i visited genting quite often. At that time. the amusement park still didn’t have stuffs like the Corkscrew. I remember my grandma told me her encounter in the Genting hotel’s bath. She was then sleeping and sharing room with 2 other relatives. She woke up in the middle of the night to pee. Toilet door was opened. She saw one of our relative sitting on the toiletbowl as if she was also doing business. So she talked to her and ask her to take her time. But the lady in the toilet supposed to be one of my relatives sharing room with her didn’t answer. My grandma didn’t want to disturb her do business so walked back to the bed. To her shock, she counted the number of pple sleeping on the bed. Everyone was there sleeping soundly. So who was in the bath? She went back to check the lady had already disappeared… Faintszzzz .. Lucky for me i haven’t encounter such stuffs. But I wouldn’t want to try it anyway. Tho genting is a cheap getaway but I don’t wan to put my gf and myself at risk man!..Only the two of us is going .. These things usually strikes when there are less pple.. they love to pick times when u r alone.. If u r all in a group they can’t hurt u. 😀 good luck man.. please remember to knock the door three times n say excuse me before entering a hotel room man!The best is don’t go la.. lol.. i wonder how can anyone still be normal feel ok after witnessing the amusement park ride that ripped pple’s head off.. imagine if u r sitting next to the victim then… have a nice day! thanks for sharing all those stories…

Wow…Spooky website and spooky Ria Apartment…
Here’s something my dad have experienced…
One night my whole family including me….stayed in Ria Apartment after watching the performance…Then we went back to the room at about 12am++….started sleeping at about 1pm++…I took a fast bath as i noe that Ria Apartment is haunted…so i never looked into the mirror…but i felt cold although i took a hot bath…and i never looked into the mirror…At late night….my whole family slept together….6 of us…i cant sleep at night and realize tat my dad cant sleep too…Next morning…i asked my dad why cant he sleep….he said something was touching his back….he never turn behind…and prayed whole night….i only got to sleep for 4-5 hours that night….so the next morning…realize i have panda eyes =D!
Until now…Whenever I go to any hotels…i dont look in the mirror too often unless im styling my hair…hehehe!
Here’s something u guys could use to make “them” stay away from you whenever u stay in a hotel…
– Try telling “them” that u are just staying in the hotel juz for few nights and u will be going off…tell them not to disturb u and your family….Juz say “Da gao sai , da gao sai, stay few nights then go off le” in Cantonese , Chinese , English or any other languages u noe…- it is pretty useful…
One more thing… – Pray more in your house – – Go to temple more often –
Nothing to worry about…

wow man!!!! all those experince above really freak me out…….
December 1st, 2008 at 10:19 am
For everyone’s information, Ria & Kayangan Apartments are NOT part of Genting, these are private properties, private apartments sold off to individual buyers. Since June 2006, all bookings with Genting for these apartments had stopped and the respective Management Corporations and Joint Management Body under the Strata Titles Act 1985 and Building & Common Property Act 2007.
HOWEVER, there are private parties renting out these apartments on their own. Which means they own the apartments and are making a profit out of renting them out, very much like in Cameron Highlands. Having said that, the apartment is only as good as the owner.
Now for these spooky stories, I do not doubt some of it, I know some myself, BUT there are some really ridiculous encounters stated here. Most of us had heard it from someone whom had known someone whom had encountered it themselves, BUT I doubt it, it just doesn’t make sense.
The all time favourite dead body under the bed is one of the most ridiculous one. Anyone with a divan and mattress will know that you can’t put anything in between them without it bulging out, what more a dead body?? And the stench from a dead body, who could have missed that for few days?? Simple example, leave a dead fish/chicken out and see how it smells.
Then someone up here said “centralized air conditioning” in Ria Apartments. LOL there’s no air cond in Ria Apartments.
Then another favourite, closed/abandoned floor in Ria, stuck all over with talismans and fu etc. Mind you all the floors are occupied, AND it’s not even easy to buy an apartment in Ria, anytime someone sells, it is grabbed almost immediately. YES it is that much in value. Over RM200 psqf and it’s a 22years old apartments.
And someone up here even said there’s an abandoned “room” in Kayangan. Kayangan are all apartments, and they go for even higher price than Ria. Much more in demand. The are empty apartments there, just because they could not transfer the ownership due to technicalities as most are Singaporean owners.
NOW for all that matter, I would be more afraid of human. What human could do to another is far worse. Like chinese say, the scariest ghost is “Kung Guai” (poor man).
December 3rd, 2008 at 3:09 pm
however…i know ther was haunted at ria…AFTER i reserver the room!!!^^yeah!hurray~
December 12th, 2008 at 12:01 am
The story sure really a truth story.
Now, my friend and her families are staying at there for three days.
Will the same story happens to them?
I hope nothing bad will happen to them.
December 16th, 2008 at 11:41 am
Wow dudes and ladies, awesome stories up there! Everyone do have their own experiences like me myself. Never seen them before though. Never could and never would. Only can feel their presence and hearing them talking. One thing’s for sure, I never stayed in Ria Apartments before but my Dad did. Some ghost aren’t hostile or aggresive that’s for sure. Here’s a story from my Dad himself.
Just wanna share a tale with you peeps. Back in 2006, he had a Chinese National supplier who visited him and where else to go other than the reknown ‘City of Entertainment?’ They rented 2 single bedroom in the Ria Apartments. Nothing happened in the morning, went ahead with their plans. Enjoy the day, came back around 2am and decided to thit the sack. My dad woke up 1 hour later due to enter the toilet. To his surprised, thecloset was widely opened. Funny thing was, he was sure that he closed the closet before heading to bed. Well, he closed it again, then proceed to the toilet. Came back to the room and closed the door. Cuddle himself in the bed and a few minutes later, weird things begin to happen.
First, slight knocking can be heard from his bedroom door. He didn’t care much and he never had any thoughts on that. Then came harder knockings on the door. Still as it is, my dad didn’t hinder the knockings. Seconds later, he heard clearly 3 very loud knockings on the door and the door suddenly just opened by itself. My dad was facing the door. He assumed that it was the wind and went ahead and check the windows. No windows were opened and he could not feel any wind at all. He knocked on the door and the knocking sounds is similiar. He reliazed that it might not be the wind after all and it might be very well be someone else in the room with him. He assumed that there’s a ‘being’ who might be staying in the closet. The ‘being’ might had followed him out of the room and when my dad return to the room my dad closed the door and he could not get in. So that might explain the 3 different knockings on the door. First knocking was soft and polite then came slightly harder knockings than the first as if trying to get the person’s attention (assuming my Dad had not heard the first knocks). The last hard and loud knockings might represent an annoyed person. Dad quickly apologized for his rudeness. He continued to sleep in the room and if it was me, I did move out of the room already. Throughout the night, he could smell someone in the room and feel that there’s a prescense in the room. He did not worry though as the ‘being’ is a polite and harmless one.
The next morning he told the China guy whether he had any strange experiences and guess what he said? “No, not at all.” When my dad told him what happened last night he just went pale. That’s about it I guess. Whether anot the story is true or false, it all drops by to the very one person listening to it right? It depends whether the individual believes. Drop the seeing is believing. I am sure most of us out there wouldn’t want to see them at all. Either way, I am very interested in ghost stories and had been interviewing people for their fair share of tales a few years back. Thought it would be cool of you to email me some of your stories. Could ya guys?:P

Well then I take my leave here first:P Take care everyone!

I’ve stayed at Ria Apartment once very long time ago back in the 90s and I agree that it is somewhat creepy.
What spooks me the most is the eerie silence of it. You cannot really hear what’s going inside the unit when you’re standing outside. Even the hotels in genting are not as quiet as ria apartment. Another thing is the apartment units. some have iron doors bolted to them and some you can see is plastered with chinese talisman. The whistling sound made by the wind also adds a bit of spook to it.
Apart from that, I remember the elevator is very slow. When i stayed there I used the emergency staircase instead of the elevator because it was just too slow. But the emergency staircase wasn’t all impressive as well. Although well lit, it was somewhat foul smelling due to people peeing there.

My goodness, this is the first time I read so many spooky tales about Ria Apts. I have been to GH for umpteen times since 1980 and had “bad feelings” only for losing money and not otherwise. I had stayed in Genting Hotel, Highlands Hotel, Theme Park’s and Ria Apt B4, but no untoward incidents. In the late 90’s I even rented the penthouse (22nd floor?) from GH booking office in KL so just to entertain my client and family from Penang. That family comprised 2 adults and 6 children (5 girls and 1 boy aged between 5 and 16). They took 2 rooms while me and wife used the other. We were happy and enjoyed every bit of the moment from arrival till departure. The only scary thing we thought was the corridors and their doors between units bcos we were thinking would-be robbers would find it a good hiding place. Maybe, just maybe, my heavenly Teacher is always there to protect me.

Went to GH few days back. Noticed that 17th floor in ria apartment block selangor dun hv occupancy at all. all lights were closed. Me and 1 more guy went up to check but heard some weird old tune frm some radio. when i went there, I saw 3 doors (left, right and front) were all closed. I peek out from the lift but saw nothing. We finally went down without encountering any prob. Anyway, i fetched him back to my condo as his bike was parked there. On his way back, his bike broke down. I never stayed in ria apartment before. My question – the 3 doors outside the lift is always closed?

February 13th, 2009 at 4:28 pm
To watermelon, please do YOUR homework, i stayed at Ria for more than a year, and work in Genting for more 3 years. My portfolio includes Ria and Kayangan Apartments, and i walked ALL the floors numerous times, whether it was myself, with security and even during Bomba inspections. Now dont tell me what I know about these apartments.
No doubt there are creepiness about the apartment but some stories are just too much..
February 14th, 2009 at 9:50 am
Agreed with civic98, i just went there last week and stayed in selangor block 20th floor. The block are full of ppl and i feel comfortable and the convenience shop at 2nd floor is open daily until 3am. Nothing was happen during my holidays there.
February 17th, 2009 at 10:48 am
Hi civic98
Im not sure if u’ve had visit every single floors in RIA apartment, but i can tell u that there’s one particular floor, i think it was a lower floor (cant remember) is really chained and sticked fully with talisman…

Based from all inputs gathered here I think it’s safe to assume that probably the whole of Genting area are shall we say…”unclean”.From my own experience, it happened when I was on a fun trip with my gf at “1st W” hotel (shortened for obvious reasons ;p).Not on the 1st nite (not a sound,no visual no nothing) but on the 2nd nite.We just got back from late supper at about 1am-ish and was ready to “shutdown” till morning.Barely 30 minutes or so after lights out,I kinda noticed that my gf was gripping across to my left shoulder a bit tighter that she’d normally would as she prefers to sleep on my right side.I didn’t make a fuss about it when she suddenly made strange hissing sounds and knee’ed my right thigh.There and then alarm bells were ringing in my head and I quickly fumbled for the bedside light switch.She was WILD eyed with fear when I got the lights on and literally jumped at me for a hug which she did.After a brief pause,I managed to calm her down a bit and asked if she had any nightmares.She responded that things had gone wrong for her the minute I turned the lights off because she claimed that as her eyes were fixed on looking at my figure (as things gone dark) coming into bed, she noticed ANOTHER darker,taller and wider apparition making its way to stand just on her end of the bed.She tried to scream out to me but when the “thing” was fixed just off her toes, it seemed to had sucked out her voice so she explained that was why she turned and tried to shake me awake.Just to comfort her,I proceeded to double check the room’s lock and latch,blocked the door knob off by stacking the side tables, the bathroom and the room’s window complete with opening that up and looked outside.Made sure that I pulled the curtain close properly then I hopped on back to bed,left a bedlight on and kept my gf armlocked.Of course that little incident had rattled both of us a bit but I insisted that we should still turn the lights off,changed sides and assured her that I’ll stay awake until she sleeps.Since I wasn’t so affected by the whole deal, it didn’t took long for me to shut it….My gf didn’t move her arms off me all the way till my cellphone’s alarm rang that morning.Woke up with a bit sore on the lower back as I didn’t properly lay flat and was cursing it.On our way back, I teased her that maybe that “thing” was a male because as it happened the only fabrics that covered her was the blanket halfway and that lace Y-back undie underneath.Got a nasty bruising pinch due to my fast mouth lol ./.
Was quite a bummer thing to happen on our last nite for the trip too if y’all ask me.
Funny thing is, we made 2 other trips up after THAT with no incidents whatsoever but iirc I did for one of those trips (it was a 2 couple deal) had suggested Ria apartments.Now I know why when our friends would always either; strongly object or try to divert from the idea.
But honestly I still don’t buy into this wholly because it’s best to approach things with a “hey i just come here to have some fun and NOT to poke around with y’all supernatural things” attitude.But of course there will always be some buggers out there wanting to “tease” us now and then, so it’s a matter of simple vigilance and focusing on objectives that’s all.Am I a”skeptic”?Far from it this is coming from a guy who has seen and experienced these things all his life so far.What I’m saying is that when you already know that “it” is out there, you should also know when and where to draw the line and how much should you let “them” affect you or not.Like it or not we can actually co-exist…

hi Guys…. well i and my fiance went to stay in Genting for one nite…. we went straight to the Ria apartment as it was cheaper than the hotels. We wanted a single room and the agent was keep on asking us to take one apartment and he will give us for good price. We both were not interested because we dont need a apartment for just both of us. At last we decided to take one room and we did ask the agent whether there is anyone else staying in the apartment. He said there are a group of 6 ppl staying in the master bedroom. So we was ok with it and went to the apartment. The cleaner followed us as she said someone has just checked out from the room and she needs to clean it. There was another room opposite the room we stayed.That room was empty and the master bedroom ppl were also leaving the day we checked in. So basically we both were the only one in the apartment.
After keeping our bags in the room we went to the theme park and play the whole day and came back. Around 6 something in the evening we thought of napping forwhile. Of course before sleeping we was chit chatting and suddently our room door was oppened by itself. we heard someone hold the door knob and opening it. My fiance went to the door and checked because i and he remember that we had locked the door before lying down on the bed. He said it might be the wind and maybe we didnt close the door propelry. He just try to make it positive. After a while we could hear someone opening and closing the room door opposite. We was abit curious because there was no wan else in that apartment. We also heard the kitchen door slamming and even the toilet lights were closed eventhough we left it open. We couldnt continue sleeping and got ready and went to indoor theme park and had our dinner . We didnt want to go back to the apartment and bought tickets to watch “Casino Royal movie” at 1 am in the morning. I slept off in the theater while my fiance was enjoyed the movie. Around 5 am we walked back to the apartment and went to sleep. I slept off but my fiance couldnt sleep and he can feel something was wrong. He could feel someone scratching his legs . Immediately at 8 am in the morning we moved out from the apartment. It was a bad experience and we did not enjoy anything much because of the fear.
After that we did go and stay in Ria apartment few times with friends. It was good and nothing happen. We really enjoyed. I wont say that there is nothing bad in there but it just depends on certain apartments. Not all the apartments has the same feeling. Just be confident and calm …….

My gf’s dad and mum shared their experience with me once when they spent a couple of nights in Ria Apartment with their family. One night when they were fast asleep there, the mum woke up when she noticed that her husband was moving out of bed and walking to the window. She cried to the husband who did not answer her. Realising that something was not right and that he wanted to climb out the window…she ran to him and screamed loudly. At that instant, the husband woke up and turned back. She immediately grabbed his hand and pulled him back in.
Asking what he was doing, the dad was looking very confused and blur…and answered that there was a woman dressed in white pulling him to the window. He just din have any control over it and was just able to follow her. It was when he heard the mum scream that he woke up from this thing and realised that half his body was out the window. He was definitely shocked and explained that he remembered seeing a woman and it seemed that he was possessed by her.
That moment on, they did not dare sleep for the rest of the night and decided to check out the very next day.

Its been around 10 years since the last time i go to ria apartment, and i just it today, the trip is peaceful and i neither see those things nor feelings of it presence. Before entering the unit, remember knock the door 1st, and the shoe don’t arrange it nicely, those thing might wear it if u arrange it properly. The lift can access to 13th floor but i didnt wanna go there

hmm hard to believe. here is true story. just came back from ria last weekend. at night while at kitchen, noticed shadow of a women of the next apartment although no one was staying in that apartment. no light also. cannot be my refelection casuse I wear tudung, the women did not. next morning around 6.30am, heard the lift opened, and the door bell rang shortly. I could not see any shadow from at the bottom of the front door. no sound of anyone walking also. just door bell. I don’t dare to open. So, either the place is haunted, or someone is playing pranks… and very good at it. Anyway we chedckout the same morning although we plan for 2 night. holidays should be pleasant, not full of worries.

aiyoh… i read all these stories at 3am now getting goosebumps and couldn’t sleep…
anyway, i’m a heavy gambler and i go to genting once a month to gamble, alone most of the time.
i never stayed in that so-called ria apartment (nor will i ever, after reading all these), but i always stay at the hotels (first world and resort hotel mainly), and so far, i nv encounter such supernatural thingy (n hope i will not ever in my future trips because i always go alone most of the time).

stories sound too fake to be true
most looks like it came from imagination and creation
also the stories about a weight pressed on the body, there is a scientific explanation for that(i forgot it’s name though).
it’s a waste ria is closed now as i’d personally head there to proof to myself and all that there are no ghosts there
May 18th, 2009 at 4:25 pm
All bullshit! I have stayed in Ria Apartment for at least 50 times during 2001 to mid 2009. I stayed alone before, stayed with a friends before, stayed with my family before, and nothing unusual happened. Do not waste your time writing & creating ghost story at Ria Apartment. It is never exist in Ria Apartment. Ghost or spiritual things do exist in certain places and I bet you that you do not want to write about it if you have experience it before.

I planned to read every story in this comment area, but it’ll take me daaaays!

I’ve stayed in Ria before & thnk GOD! nothing happened…. all i know is… Genting is haunted.. & tht’s a fact… & in a few years time… the whole genting will be fully haunted… it’ll make a good movie actually… >_<

Goodness me, my family and i were just back from our first Genting trip and we stayed in Ria Apartment (Selangor). it is ok and nothing went wrong for us. i guess if i have known all these things that had happened there, i won’t dare to stay in the apartment. lucky for us, we knocked on the door before we went in and called out loudly “Sorry to disturb for a few days” when we entered into the apartment. so, i guess with such courteous guests, they dun mind sharing the space with us for a few days.

Naturally human and animals will not disturb you if you do not disturb them…. This goes to the spiritual being everywhere… To not getting disturb, you must first respect them….
Myself have been staying in the in RIA for more than 20 times from 2005 – 2009, not counting Awana Genting and First World. There was once I went to Genting with my bro and cousin and we booked the penthouse in RIA since there is more than 8 of us… 3 of us went up earlier to check in and waiting for other relatives to reach as they are working till 10pm… Around 11pm we recieved a call from my cousin’s mom saying that her shop is on fire and she and other relatives will be only arriving the next morning… End up only 3 of us in the spacious apartment… 3 of us were actually scared at first because we too have heard about those spooky stories bout tat apartment… We are silly… We plan to sleep in different rooms since there is 3 rooms and we did not want to leave the rooms vacant… But there’s nothing happen and we slept well that nite… Nothing spooky… Nothing eery…
Tips:
Never leave the other bed empty if the room has 2 beds and you are only using one… make the other bed messy and put your luggage on the bed to make it looked occupied.
Do not ever leave your shoes in a proper manner.
Knock on the door and always say “sorry to disturb”
Close the toilet doors when you sleep cos it is believed that spiritual being normally from toilet.
These are the thing that I will always do whenever I stay in Hotel or Apartment (During Vacation)….
Dun worry guys. Always remember ” To gain respect is to respect others”. Have fun to those visiting Genting soon.
