This time I will tell you a story that happened in my hometown a few decades ago. The incident happened at that time when my mother was teenager.

Lady Q (not a real name) was very rich and wealthy in my home town. I’m not too sure how rich she was at that time but my mom said that if you were to count her wealth in current time, she would own the whole of KL. Back to the story, every year Lady Q would visit China and return with an adopted child.

One fateful day, Lady Q fell sick and couldn’t sit or walk.  Strangely after her sickness, her child (not her adopted child, and yes she’s married with few children) died one by one. Every one of her either die in an accident or sickness. At first it would be her daughter, then her son-in-law, then her daughter-in-law and lastly her grandchildren. In the end, she was the final one to die in her family and no one was there to mourn for her because there were no more family members or relatives left. In those days, if someone rich were to pass away, they would hold a long funeral and Lady Q’s funeral lasted for 49 days.

Author’s Note : This is the first scary story I’ve heard during the Hungry Ghost Festival 2009 so its going to be the first scary story I’m posting. Enjoy!

Brian loves to go out at night but during the 7th month of the lunar calender, he would automatically reach home before dark falls. That unfortunate night, he had to work late and co-incidentally it was the 14th of the month. It was the day that was believed to be the most darkest day of any of the days in the 7th month. Brian absorbed in his work, totally forgot about that day until about 10pm his colleague that was about to leave for home reminded him.

Nervously looking at his watch, Brian quickly finished up the remaining of his work and packed home. By the time Brian reached the bus stop, it was already 11pm. Brian kept on looking at his watch off and on as the clock ticked closer to 12 midnight. While wondering why it took so long for the bus to reach, he suddenly looked up and saw a bus approaching. Because he was so afraid of meeting up with ghost or spirits, he hopped on the bus without a second thought.
