Some ghosts from Asia, Poland, Australia

Asia
Singapore is Asia's most haunted city. Strange lights flit through Hougang School, near East Coast Beach, and people are slapped by an unseen presence at the Changi Beach Houses. Ghosts appear from nowhere and beg for food along the coast near Lor Halus, and St. John Island is haunted by a ghost that calls for help and then runs away. The Hou Gang Tenements are haunted by the apparition of a screaming lady, and a person was reportedly killed by a ghost in Bedok Tenant House. In the Fort Sentosa district, the Punggol White House is haunted by a whole family who committed suicide together, while headless apparitions terrorize passengers as they pass through certain MRT mass transit stations in the city.

At the Parliament House in Suva, Fiji, security cameras recorded their ghost for five minutes. The footage was shown on national television and the Prime Minister called for an exorcism that was performed in 1997. Chuang Kung and his wife Chuang Mu are ancient Chinese ghosts who still possess beds in private residences and interfere with sleep, lovemaking, and childbirth. The spirit of Zashiki Warishi, a young Japanese boy is responsible for poltergeist activity in a whole neighborhood in Tokyo, while in the mountains, the ghost of Yama Uba is a blamed for the disappearance of small children.

Mount Everest is haunted by the ghost of climber Andrew Irvine who died there in 1924. His phantom ghost shares tents with climbers and encourages them to make the final ascent. The ghost was first reported by Dougal Haston and Doug Scott in September 1975 and has been seen several times since. In India, Brahmadaitya is ghost of an unmarried Brahmin monk who takes up residence in a tree after death, but the bitchy boogey will break people's necks if they trespass his property. Pretas are the rooming ghosts of Hindu men who died by violence and whose corpses were disposed of "unceremoniously." Mumiai is a Indian poltergeist that invades homes throughout Bombay, while Virikas are small spirits that appear surrounded by a reddish mist and make guttural sounds. Paisachi and Bauta are male and female ghosts who haunt so many homes that they have been given nicknames.

Ghosts and Goblins
of Vilnius Poland

Vilnius is among the European capitals where disembodied souls show up from time to time to disturb the peace. Many ghost stories date back to Lithuania's past as one of Europe's influential monarchies:

At the excavation site of an ancient castle at Katedros 3, the spirit of Sigismund, the 16th century Grand Duke of Lithuania and the King of Poland is said to regularly appear to mourn his wife, Barbora. The two married against the objections of Sigismund's mother. The castle where the happy couple resided before Barbora's pre-mature death was destroyed in 1801. But a staircase from the ruined castle still exists and it is here that Sigismund's grieving soul comes at the stroke of midnight on the eve of every full moon to wait for Barbora so that they can finally ascend the steps into heaven together.

Among the churches in Vilnius that are said to be haunted is the Dominican Church at 8 Dominikonu. During a plague that swept the land in 1657, a cellar in the monastery was used to accommodate an overflow of corpses. In the late 1800s, area residents began to complain about incessant moaning coming from the cellar area, where, upon investigation, police found hundreds of mummified, long-forgotten bodies. It is said that faint, eerie wailing can still be heard by those passing by the Dominican Church in the early morning hours.

Legend has it that an ungodly spirit in the form of a huge black dog with a red ribbon around his neck appears near the bell tower in Cathedral Square, one of the city's most sacred places. The creature, for reasons that are unknown, shows up on the spot at sunset once every hundred years around the summer solstice. The last time the dog made an appearance was around 1896 when a small girl stumbled across the dog, who then looked up at her and said, 'Take the ribbon from my neck and follow me.' The girl refused the proposition, whereupon the dog gave a shuddering sigh, rolled over onto its side and vanished into thin air.

Deserted Forest Cemetery, Poland

A photo of the deserted German cemetery hidden deep in the Notecka Forest in the province of Lubuskie in the west of Poland. Some locals and forestry workers believe the location to be haunted.

The cemetery of a German community which made its home deep in the forest of what was then the German state of Brandenburg is believed by some to be the most haunted places in Poland. The community thrived for some years and then suddenly and mysteriously died out in the late nineteenth century. Today the only trace of this once prosperous community is the neglected and overgrown graveyard. This graveyard does not appear on any map and is now completely isolated from any settlement. Local legend has it that on calm autumn and winter nights, when the moon is just right it is said you can hear voices speaking what sounds like German and other strange noises in and around the graveyard and surrounding woodland. Others claim to have seen the ghosts of children wandering this part of the forest.

Australia

Australia is a very haunted continent! Important cases from New South Wales are the Old Government House in Parramatta, the Quarrantine Station in North Head, and the Rookwood Cemetery. Cases from Victoria include the ghost of Frederick Baker, who died of a heartattack while playing Mephistopheles in "Faust" at the Princess Theatre in Melbourne, the spirits of the Old Melbourne Gaol (Jail), and the Block Arcade, which is haunted by three firemen who lost their lives trying to put out a fire that erupted in a grain storage warehouse that used to stand on the spot. Another haunted spot in Melbourne is the Victoria Market, which is built right on top of Melbourne's first cemetery. Reports of ghostly encounters at the market go back to the 1840s and continue to this day. Brisbane in Queensland is the most haunted city in Australia and locations covered from that city will include the Old Government House, the Parliament House, and the Brisbane Arcade, and City Hall, where at least three ghosts haunt the hallways. One is an elegant woman, another a maintenance man who continually rides the elevator that killed him in a freak accident, and the last is an American sailor stabbed to death in a fight with another sailor in the downstairs tearoom. Brisbane cemeteries are also hotspots of paranormal activity.
