Tales of the Unexpected, anyone?

*At that time he noticed the marks of a hand with all the five fingers across his friend's back as though someone had slapped the back very hard. He didn't mention anything to his friend & pretended as though nothing had happened. His friend went to sleep. *

*At about 10 am when the friend woke up, my husband asked him why he was sleeping upstairs - his friend with surprise and said "It was you who woke me up at night & brought me upstairs to sleep, don't you remember!?" *

Tell me about the markings he had. The markings were gone then at 10 am? Or, did he say, that was also a compliment of your husband? Did your husband take him to hospital to treat that markings at all??? :? :?


May be he had a dream and has a "disease" of walking during sleep. The problem with these "facts" is that they are NOT REPRODUCIBLE just like the cold-fusion or herbal petroleum, observed for only once. :roll:

However, I should say, it is a good "tale" for the people those who are already superstitious. This tale will sure make them stupider than they are now. :(

Having seen the wholesome and serious postings of shakti in other threads, i am not inclined to doubt her post. I would prefer to wait and watch if she can share more incidents.

Wonder if anyone has experienced this - A couple of years back there was a period when i would have a sharp burning sensation in my back and shoulders while taking early morning bath in hot water. I examined myself in the mirror and surprisingly found scratch marks as if made by a sharp instrument. It wasnt very deep but dry. I wasnt having any nails and I dont have the scratching habit either for any reason. This would persist randomly for days at a stretch. :twisted:

:roll: Intersting!!!

Did you have any serious argument with any of your other roommate, who has long finger nails? :lol:

In college days, we used to apply tooth paste on the mouth of sleeping guys, draw scar images on their body and threat by imitating the presence of Ghosts :twisted: (Connect some wires to spoon and keep it inside the glass and operate it by sitting at another room at midnight).

(treat this as casual post....)

I believe Shakti too!! Primarily because, I've heard these experiences related by umpteen others in different circumstances!!

Matter of fact, there was an infamous rest-house in a nearby town, which had to be demolished due to poor business! Nobody wanted to stay there, because of these episodes of finding themselves out of bed, in different places, by early morning!! None of them could remember how they got dragged out and placed anywhere else but the bed!! And I don't think they're all nocturnal Somnambulists!!!! :roll: :roll: :roll:

Anyway, prankster entities like the one Shakti mentioned are generally referred to as poltergeists or boggarts in English folklore! But I think it's what is commonly referred to as the "djin" here in Malaysia!! It has an interesting origin too!!

Djins are generally kept as pets by many Malay Muslims in this part of the world. Just like the rest of us who keep dogs as the house guards, there are people who keep them as their family pets and guards. From the description that Shakti gave, I believe that's what it was. Perhaps, it got left behind, by a tired owner who could not keep up with its maintenance, so decided to leave it be!!!

Djins are known to have originated from Mecca in fact. Not everyone who goes there are on a pilgrimage!!! There are sorcerers too among the teeming masses who make their way there in search of "pillars" where one could invite home these entities after a certain stipend changes hands!!

The above details was intimated to me by an old Malay colleague, who explained that it was indeed a peculiar custom to many of his people, in the community. Not everyone practices it of course, but it's generally meant to strike a chord of fear, by those in the know, not to mess around with you know who, in the village because of what you know is around, as family pet!! :wink:

[quote="hehehewalrus"]Sonu Gopi,
I am a bit surprised you have not seen the movie. Among my dozens of keralite friends, most of them were aware of the movie because in olden times parts of kerala especially the travancore area was part of tamil nadu so my friend's dads stayed in tamil nadu and didnt miss a single tamil film(esp with kerala payyan MGR on fire, in stark contrast to the lifeless Prem Nazir across the border :))


LIFELESS? :o PREM NAZIR? :? HOW DARE YOU? :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Blah-Blah - You have to admit that Prem Nazir was a more insipid lover boy that our dear MGR ever was????? :lol:

MGR was a fire-brand Pa!! He weaved in social messages in between wooing the lovelies!! Now who could surpass that, mmmm????? :D :D :D The man gave us fantasies to die for!!!!!

No, mellon, he had the markings for almost a week & he also had high fever for almost a week (a point to note - my hubby did not tell him what he saw & neither did we tell the wife). This friend has never had a history of sleep walking either. So what do u all say?

And yes, nirosha, you may be right about the Djin (Isn't the spelling supposed to be jin, no?) I too have heard similar stories from my malay friends.

And what about this creature called Toyol? It's supposed to be green, bald, ugly, about 3 feet tall (sometimes can appear to be very tall & dark also)?

Any interesting real life experinces, anyone?

Jinn,Toyol,Yakshi,Kuttychathan,Madan,Marutha!Why don't all these creatures come out in the open?

OH!I FORGOT ABOUT FORUMHUB! :twisted: :lol: :lol: :lol:
