Give Me Back My Head

Later,I found out that the building next to the plantation office,which a stone's throw from the bungalow was a military camp,housing initially the Japanese,British forces and later the Malay regiment.This were not so scary until I heard the weird stories of tortures and murders that happened around those areas.

I also discovered that that was also the place where the Japanese secretly tortured and executed "spies"during the Japanese occupation.Thinking of it made my hair stood on ends.just imagine a place where they put to death so many people.Further there was another place where they really chopped off the heads without any investigations.

That place I dreaded to venture near during my field work because it was reputed to be a haunt by headless ghosts seeking their lost heads.Tappers dared not tapped that area until the daylight were fully bright,and no one were braved sufficiently to to do otherwise.It was said that many really did came across headless ghosts begging for the return of their heads.

"Give me back my head" was a common phrase among many workers while teasing each other,during the dark.Should that be not spooky to frighten the guts out of you,but it did to me as a young and fresh planter.

Farther down the plantation along its boundary was a railway track where communists guerrillas ambushed the British forces.In that ensuing gunfight many were killed and injured on both sides.However in the end the British managed to chase those infiltrartors back into the jungle hideouts.

That area was also haunted and not many dared to go near there .It was claimed that the ghosts in that area were seeking replacements every year along those tracks.Strange enough there was always a death along that railway line somehow.That could never be any coincidence.

The spirits of the dead lingered on over there,you do not have to believe me just venture there to try those out yourself.Perhaps you were just another coward like me.
Admittedly my younger days I was scared stiffed of ghosts,no,no never these days because I dared even to kiss them outright.Any challenges???

Nowadays should you come across any ghosts you do not called "the Ghosts Blasters",you call "Cheah".
