Between Sacred Stones and Silent Screams: The Haunted Soul of Wat Sisaket
The Ghostly Past of Wat Sisaket: Lao's Spiritual Mystery Deep in the center of Vientiane, Wat Sisaket is a legacy to Laos' violent past and spiritual heritage. Built in 1818 on the orders of King Anouvong (Sethathirath V), this temple is the oldest surviving Buddhist structure in the capital, having escaped destruction by a hair's breadth during the Siamese invasion of 1827. Its unusual Siamese-influenced design—featuring a five-tiered roof and a cloistered courtyard—likely spared it the same fate as neighboring temples, which were reduced to rubble. It is today revered not only for its history but also for its notoriety as one of the most haunted locations in Laos, where the specters of the past whisper along its dimly lit passages.

Mysterious Red Sari Spirit & Haunted Tamarind Tree
The incident happened with his elder uncle, but at the request of Tapas Bhai, we are keeping his elder uncle’s name confidential. The time frame of this incident was around 1994 or 1995. During that period, the Bila (wetland) would have a lot of water in the rainy season. One day, Tapas Bhai’s uncle brought a kind of item made from palm leaves, called “Kunda” in the village language. He had gone to cut grass and also to collect Kachuri leaves and similar things for the cows’ feed. While bringing back those things for feeding the cows, there is a place near Baktarpur Bila. This place is, well, how should I put it, an area with trees, a homestead-like place. There stands a Hijal tree there. When his uncle was returning, he sat down under that Hijal tree to rest for a while. While resting absentmindedly, he broke a branch off that Hijal tree. After resting, he normally returned home. Once home, he fed the cows the grass and Kachuri leaves he had collected. Everything seemed fine, but that very night, the uncle suddenly started acting mad. He began speaking incoherently, did not want to stay indoors, and left the house. He scolded his family members and spoke nonsense to everyone. No one was able to hold him back—one person alone couldn’t restrain him, and even many together could not. He left the house. The uncle felt as if something had possessed or affected him in a bad way. When that negative force acted upon him, he felt as if someone was sitting on him, his chest became heavy, and it felt like a heavy stone was placed on his chest. He could hardly speak properly. This problem lasted similarly for about five to six days and then went away. He became completely normal, and everything—his words, behavior, and actions—were perfectly fine. About a month after this incident, the problem started again. One day, suddenly, the uncle couldn’t be found anywhere. No one could find him, and everyone started searching all around for him.

True Story | The Mysterious Flute & The Jinn of the Village
The incident took place sometime in the 1960s in a village where, at that time, there was not such a dense population and it was not as developed. This incident involves two brothers, one named Hafiz Uddin and the other Karim Uddin. Their ancestral home was in Katali village in Netrokona district. Hafiz and Karim were indeed two brothers, with Hafiz being the elder and Karim the younger. The brothers owned some rice fields, and since there was a lot of theft occurring at night—where thieves would cut and take away the ripe rice—it was common for homes to be robbed as well. During the night, it had become a regular affair for someone to sneak in and harvest the ripe rice. Therefore, they needed to guard this ripe rice.

Zombie Apes
In the shattered remnants of what was once a thriving metropolis, the air hung heavy with the stench of decay and the echoes of chaos. The city, now a dystopian sprawl of crumbling skyscrapers and overturned vehicles, had become a battleground for an unholy war.

On the other were the zombie humans—lumbering, groaning husks of what once were people, their flesh rotting and their hunger insatiable. This was no longer a world of the living; it was a realm where the undead clashed in a grotesque struggle for dominance.
