Close Encounter

I use to stay with my late mum in law in Sembawang, the new flats (blk 403). I remember when people stayed over, they got eerie feelings from my house and the whole block as a whole. My in laws flat, it seems had a 'stayer' or penunggu rumah. it was really creepy because a few people saw it, namely my sis in law, a family friend an uncle of ours. we tried to get rid of it but it wouldn't go.

With regards to PONTIANAKS, a neighbour upstairs shared with us his sister's boyfriend's experience. apparently he had just fallen asleep in the hall when he felt like someone was watching him from the balcony. He peeped slowly and lo and behold, kak Pon was watching him from there, she was literally climbing onto the grille. The boy was so freaked out he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. But kak Pon was persistent, she said 'jangan tipu tido!' (don't pretend to sleep) I don't know what happened after that. But my experience overall; I can say that place is very 'dirty'.

Maybe WW2 era pass on, not so sure..but the feeling there just isn't right...

Haunted Shopping Centre?

Please do not be misled by S*n Plaza, the shopping centre beside Sembawang MRT station. Sembawang S******** School (SSC) is further down the road, towards Yishun. I have worked there 10 over years back in KFC (before the centre is renovated) and since it is always the last few outlets to close, there are always chances for us to hear a lot about the supernatural.

1. It is rumoured that every night, there will be marching heard on the second floor. I have asked one tenant who has been there for a long time but he says never heard about this kind of things.

2. If you all didn't realise, SSC has 9 floors, not the 4-5 floors that most tot it has. The last few floors above the shopping centre are all residential areas. Before the whole place is renovated, my colleagues and me have ventured up there. The scary part is that only the first residential floor is occupied, we assume, as one flat got one orange light shining thru the door. But the higher we went, the darker it becomes, until the last floor, where there is a poster bed in the middle of the dark, eerie lift lobby.

3. We even climbed up to the top floor (attic??), where we can have a really good, clear view around SSC. Once up there, i suddenly saw, from the corner of the eye, a pair of legs running across. But of coz, i have to say it may be a figment of my imagination. Haha.

4. I have asked this colleague of mine, who used to go up to the top floor after work for a relaxed smoke with two other friends, whether he has experienced any things. He told me that there's once, 3 of them are talking and one of them just started running. The two followed suit and when probed bout the reason, the guy told them that while they are talking, he saw an Indian man, holding a parang, running straight at em.... Any more stories about that place?? I may asked my mum's friends, who work in Giant.

Hi, just wanna share the following stories. My cousins used to worked in Sembawang P***a and she mentioned few creepies stuffs to me.

She heard from the cleaners that the toilets are extremely creepy, especially at night. One of the cleaner was bathing in the last cubicle and out of the blue, she heard someone was calling her. Then, she opened the door slightly to peep out but there was none.

The next moment, when she turned back, a white figure was right behind her staring at her. Freak out. She dashes out of the cubicle.

2nd story. Once my cousin was at the basement arranging some goods to prepare for the start of the day. While doing her work, at the corner of her eyes, she saw a little girl squatting beside and looking at her. Crrepy.. This had happened to quite a number of her colleagues too.

3rd story, She saw 1 lady in white, just walked passed her smiling and then through the escalator in the basement

A taxi driver told me this:

This happened many years ago. Usually he and two other taxi drivers would meet up at one of the petrol kiosk around 2 / 4 am to have their break and at the same time talk to the lady on duty (they knew each other for a long time).

One night, they heard a squeaking sound and saw a car dashed into the kiosk compound and stopped right in front of the door way. They rushed out to find out what happened. The driver was a young man, his face was almost greenish and his hands were gripped firmly on the steering wheel. One of the guys went into the kiosk and got him a cup of warm water. Then they helped him out of the car. The older guys began to apply axe-oil on his forehead because he body was cold. A while later, he regained his 'consciousness'. They asked him what happened.

He related this story:

After meeting up with his friends, he went to fetch his car from the parking place at Sembawang Secondary School (SSC), right after he started his car, he saw a green figure sitting on the passenger's seat. All the way out the green thing was trying to grab his steering wheel to cause an accident. It was a fierce struggle and finally he saw the kiosk, that was why he used up all his strength to rush in. He was glad there was no vehicle along Thomson Road at that hour.

When asked where the green thing was, he replied that when they were helping him out, it was still sitting there staring at him. He was not going to drive home, and he asked the kiosk those taxi guys if they could help to call his brother / cousin to come and fetch him.

Just to share with you all. Up to you to believe this. But there was no reason why the taxi guy should weave such a tale to fool me.

Female Ghost

I ever work in SSC till they close down. Once I heard from my friend who work at 2nd level, said that their storeroom is haunted. The 3rd previous manager resign 2 day after taking over, and no one knows why?? Rumours said that he saw a female ghost. My friend told me every night they pack their storeroom clean, next day when they open shop, it became messy. As if bulgur break-in. The last manager, who is my friend ever saw it once. He told me there is a woman and a baby... I don't know is it true, as I went in several times I still cant feel or see anything. But in the end, my friend commit suicide ...not at e outlet , at home...police treat it as unnatural death. I suspect e outlet geomancy is bad, as no one last long in the shop. Staff from that shop ever said my friend committed suicide in the outlet once, but unsuccessful, as the "tougay" (for price tag use) break. Mayb cant support his weight...anyway I heard alot of stories about SSC, but now under renovation. But i miss the good old days at there...

A Witch was Hanged?

Sembawang area, especially Wak Hassan place and Penaga place used to have a kampong road lead all the way to the canal but now its a dead end. That area has many reported Pontianak sightings and Penanggalan "bodyless ghost". Majority are Pontianaks.

That's true. If you go to the Bottle Tree Village makan place , you will have to drive past that stretch of road which kind of eerie. That's around the Wak Hassan place with the low tree canopy and dim lighting. The left turn after Andrew Ave. Next time you drive there, slow down and wind down the car windows and you will get that funny feeling! My cousin pointed out to me a tree where a witch was hanged last time...don?t how true it is though..

My cousin went to sembawang beach long ago to catch crabs...then gt one time he felt dazed and when he came to his senses, he was very far out at sea and the water level was almost till his head. Same here, I use to go there to get crabs at night usually if I’m with friends get down to canal nothing happens but if we are all alone the pontianak will appear from the other side of the canal and look at us, she doesn’t seem to be very aggressive but, you know what I mean....we are spooked by her presence and off cause her appearances.

Who called my name?

When I was pregnant, I always go fishing at Sembawang Park with my friends & my husband. Before I gave birth a week ago, I was there camping with the group. At dawn, we were going packing up but it started raining heavily so the 7 of us went hiding inside one tent. When we were in the tent, I was sitting in the back tent. I suddenly heard someone calling out my name outside the tent so started asking my husband and others friends if there was anyone left outside the tent. To my surprise there was no one left out there, but I was very confirm that I did heard someone calling out my name very clearly and that was a man voice. And I ask my friend did anyone call me and anyone heard someone calling my name. But no one heard except for me and when I was trying to shake off the eerie feeling, I heard the voice again calling my name but I kept quiet till I left the place.

Lustful Ghost?

I can't remember if I had encountered any ghosts during my past overnight BBQing experiences in Sembawang Park, but I do know that there is a risk of encountering a different sort of 'ghost' altogether...the hamsup 'ghost' aka 'peeping tom' haha...It's been a while since I've made a return trip there (despite staying relatively nearby), but if you gals find yourselves there and especially late at night, be careful when you use the toilets (the one near the restaurant), because the upper windows face the back of the restaurant, and a friend of mine had encountered such a peeping fiend there. Alas, we couldn't catch that rotten bugger

White Figure Followed You

Sorry, just sidetrack a bit here. I was formerly from Sembawang camp and there was once where 2 of my friends, they were required to do prowling in the morning just after midnight, and there was this checkpoint just besides the SAF yatch club where we had to get to by exiting through a gate, a few hundred metres besides the yatch club.

That night, 1 of them was waiting at the gate while other 1 went to finish his prowling to and fro from the checkpoint. Upon returning back, my friend who was standing @ the gate saw something in white following other guy closely behind. Needless to say, he shouted at him to dash back and lock the gate quickly. Then, they dash off to the next point.

Seems to me that the Sembawang area quite "dirty", although I can't verify whether my friends said are true since I've never witness it before.

River Ghost

I use to go fishing at the sea sport club and beside it was a canal. During 1 of my fishing trip there, upon reaching the sea sports club, i saw a group of motor siao beside the canal making lots of noise and having their music on super loud. After a while it went totally silence. I thought they were gone, but suddenly 1 of them ran over to us to ask for help as 1 of their guy kept on wanting to jump into the canal. its was lucky that 1 of the uncle fishing there use to be a Tangki, so he went over to save him. From the conversation with the uncle after the incident, he told me that the guy he had saved was process by the river ghost who had committed suicide long time ago. i was told it was a lady who had jump into the canal wearing red dress to commit suicide. I wonder anyone had heard about this canal ghost or personally encounter it. Maybe share it with everyone.

Fishing Horror

Recently, I went to the canal beside the bottle tree village at Sembawang to do some fishing....reached there around 7pm plus...after setting up my equipment, started to fish...noticed that I’m the only guy who was fishing over there. I really don't think about those creepy things cause I keep bringing up fish...around 10plus, two guys walk pass by me with their fishing equipment. They started to fish at the river mouth which is 70m away from me. Notice that they too keep bringing up fish. 12plus saw 1 of the guy try to start a fire but couldn't manage to start it...his friend try to help him but unable to start it... Omg, I started to sense somethings not right. After many tries to start the fire without success, they packed their stuff n decided to go back...for them to go back, they have to pass me...when they pass me, they asked whether I was fishing until dawn break...I replied, if I can stand it, I will stay lah...so they went away leaving me alone...the fish that I keep bringing up is unbelievable, suddenly I started to smell something smelly.. It was not pungent smell. The smell was indescribable....never want to turn my head back but from the corner of my eyes, i saw a white figure squatting and eating the fish that i caught...without any delay, pack all my stuff and quickly leave the place.

Rubber Trees got Miss P?

I don't think there's any house left at Wak Hassan? Hmmm....

True bro... there is none left after the last occupants was evicted by the authorities in 2000. There were only 6 family left then. The rest were relocated to yishun and sembwang new estate.

The only remnants of the old kampong there are the Malay Settlement Sembawang Mosque. The mosque is not that old, only about 60 years. The residents still gathers at that mosque every week to reminisce the old days.

About a 100m behind that mosque, stood the only untouched and natural beaches in Singapore till now. The beach looks eerie though. According to the history, there were 6 to 7 villages there. I was told by the only oldest living residents in that kampong about few paranormal happenings there. One of them is a rubber tree just beside the mosque.

The rest is about the accidents happen at sea. It seems every year there were at least 2 to 3 deaths at sea surounding that area, then. Now, only a few months ago, a 15 year old boy drown by the sea again. According to the people who have associated themselves to the beach at sembwang, there are at least 2 deaths per year there.

Got a nice interesting story about that place while i was doing research. I loved the beach though. Met this nice family wo loved to camp by the sea almost everyday. While drinking coffee. he would reminisce about the old days when he was a former residents of that kampong. Loved to go back there again to relax.
