Hong Kong actor Ng Siu Hin recently visited Malaysia to shoot a movie. However, it seems like his stay had been marred by a series of unfortunate events.
In a recent update on the social networking service Threads, the 30-year-old revealed that he had changed his hotel room three times over the past week.
His first move was prompted by a bed bug issue.
Since the actor had to change rooms at such a short notice, he was given a room which had been unoccupied for “a very long time”.
“The new room was at the end of the corridor. When I entered, it was really gloomy,” Ng said.
This room had its own set of problems – including a faulty shower head holder, a leaky toilet and an apparent supernatural presence.
“I felt very uncomfortable during the night. I had goosebumps while lying in bed and felt like someone was looking at my phone with me,” Ng said.
He also revealed that there were strange noises coming from the bathroom.
“It was as if someone was stumbling around inside. The lamp next to the bed couldn’t be switched off either,” he said, adding that he couldn't sleep the whole night.
The next morning, Ng confided in a psychic friend, who confirmed an otherworldly presence in the room and asked if he had brought any incense.
Ng decided to switch rooms again.
This time, he found himself contending with construction noises from the floor above.
“So I changed rooms again. Three room changes in a week. I’m really the unluckiest person,” he lamented.
In the comments section, many netizens said they were spooked by Ng’s story.
One also asked the Stand Up Story star if he had knocked before entering – a practice among the superstitious to “ask for permission” before stepping into a vacant room.
To this, Ng responded: “I usually knock on the door, but the manager who was helping me change rooms just opened it without knocking.”
