Asians are creepy

[tinhuvielartanis]

I mean it in the most complimentary way. I chanced upon this clip of two pathetic Singaporean soldiers getting the holy hell scared out of them by a Pontianak. I'd never even heard of the Pontianak until I saw this, which shames me no end because, apparently, Pontianak is the Malaysian/Singaporean Lilith archetype. I don't know if this clip is real or fake, but the sound the woman-creature is making makes the hair on my toe knuckles stand on end and do the Wave.

So then I do a search for other fun ghost stuff out of Singapore and I found this.

What's with the gimpy granny? Why do all these Asian ghosts move so freaky? Do you have to have a physical handicap to be a card-carrying Asian ghost? The hell?

What with Japanese ghost movies like Ju-On and Ringu, and now Live on You Tube: Haunted Singapore!, I don't think I'll ever have a good night's sleep again. Just the thought of doing an Asian ghost tour makes me want to poo a little in my skivvies.
