My True Ghost Story – Travelodge

This is my third hotel ghost story and hopefully the last story I will ever write. This happened in England UK, while I was travelling with my family. I don’t practise the hotel rituals before entering the room. It is not that I don’t believe in ghosts, but I just don’t want to acknowledge their existence, especially in a hotel.

To be honest, I can not remember when this incident happened and which Travelodge we stayed in. I just remember it was very dark when we checked into our room. We often booked Travelodges in the early days as it was often the cheapest option for a family of four. Their family rooms are usually pretty spacious and you know what you’re getting.

My True Ghost Story – Japan Hotel

This is my second supernatural encounter in a hotel, but this time, the location was in Osaka. Before I go into details, why not check out my post on Chinese superstitions entering hotel room.

This happened in 16 May 2010; my sister-in-law, husband and I went to Japan for a holiday. On this occasion, my sister-in-law stayed in one room by herself, whilst my husband and I were in another room. It was a very compact room, but it had everything we needed. The moment you open the door, there was the landing and a toilet on our left. Then there was a double bed and a small table with books near the window. The room was bright and well decorated. I was very surprised to see a range of holy books displayed on the table. I did not look into the details but I’m pretty sure they were the Shinto holy book and bible.

My True Ghost Story – Venice Hotel

No matter how many stars a hotel is rated, it doesn’t mean they are ‘clean’. There could be natural deaths, murders or suicides in a hotel room. Some hotels are rumoured to be haunted. Have you stayed in such a hotel?

We Chinese have a special way of entering a hotel room. We have a list of rituals and superstitions to follow before we go into the room. Have a read of this post on Chinese superstitions when entering a hotel room.

My True Ghost Story – Operating Theatre Night Shift

As mentioned in my previous post, I used to work as an operating theatre nurse back in my Singapore days. This is my second post on strange paranormal incidents encountered during my first three night shifts.

For the first few weeks of orientation, we mainly worked office hours but soon after, we began to trial working night shifts. For a normal night shift, there are seven working staff at night running three theatres if they are busy. As I was still a junior and working my first night shift, I was the eighth staff member on that shift.

My True Ghost Story – Operating Theatre

I used to work as an operating theatre nurse back in my Singapore days. During my 15 months working there, I encountered ghosts many times during the night and day, hence I have to split this into two posts.

This was my second job after I was unhappy working a year in Ortho/ENT C class ward near my home. My friend persuaded me to move to an operating theatre in one of the oldest hospitals in Singapore. It’s one of the largest and busiest hospitals in Singapore and they have multiple disciplines. There are a total of 28 operating theatres on the same floor.

My True Ghost Story – Taxi

If you work late at night or do a night shift, you can have quite a lot of strange encounters. My third story is a warning to night shift taxi drivers. I have been listening to my favourite Singapore radio station Love 97.2FM Mr Zhou’s Ghost Stories podcasts since last year. Some of the stories involve taxi drivers picking up some strange ‘passengers’. Or their business was poor because they had an extra ‘passenger’ in the front seat that they weren’t aware of which put other potential passengers off from flagging it down.

My True Ghost Story – School Toilet

Hello everyone! This is my second ghost story and the topic is school toilets! Whenever people start talking about school toilets, it always gives me goosebumps. I hate going to school toilets as they are always so small, dark, wet and dirty.

Back in the 80s and 90s, girls’ toilets in Singapore had two types of toilet bowls. One type was for squatting and the other type is the more common seated toilet. Even now, in some shopping malls, you will still find one or two squatting toilets inside the girl’s toilets in Singapore. There are still many people who like to use them as they are more hygienic than using a shared toilet seat. Nevertheless, back to the story.
