Rated S for Scary - About fengshui and supernatural stuff

Oh, just feel like sharing a very heartcoming (at least to me) ghost story that I’ve encountered.
It was about my 姑姑 who died when I was in upper primary, can’t remember which year. She died rather suddenly, she was admitted to hospital bec she felt like fainting and was hospitalised immediately for they suspected blood cancer. So it took just a few weeks and she’s gone.
She’s the closest person to me, lived with us as she’s single and had doted on me. I was extremely upset when she died. Cried for many many days throughout her funeral and sometimes when I think of it, it still wets my eyes (like now).
After the funeral was done and her urn was placed in the Buddhist temple as she had instructed. I had a very weird dream (just a few days after the funeral was over). That she had gone to another place and she was wearing a pinkish red dress with floral prints on it. Told me she had come to see me to make sure I’m okay and to say ‘goodbye’.
I told my parents and they were shocked. Bec they had dressed her up in that pinkish red dress as I’ve described when she was taken to 火化. They didn’t let us see her corpse for fear that it would sadden us, so we didn’t really see what she wore on that day.
Few years later, I had a dream again that my aunt was bullied by her peers and she was made to do many many chores. I told my mum.
Another few years passed, I had a dream again. This time she asked me that why didn’t we write her name on the offerings made to her during Ching Ming. And she said that all the ‘money + paper house’ that we burnt for her during her funeral had her name wrongly written. So she is bullied there for all the ‘money’ we gave her over the years were snatched by all those other beings. She said that we need to buy her a wallet, with a credit card inside. And inside the credit card, write her name in it and all the money we burn for her will be received.
Reconciled with my mum the next day. And you know what my mum told me?
My mum said that the day when she burnt all the paper house and money for her funeral, it was taken care of by this guy in the temple. Meaning this guy has got to write her name for them. The receipt when it was all done up, it was really wrong. One of my aunt’s chinese characters was really written wrongly though the sound of it was the same. But they didn’t think too much of it then. They had pretty much assumed that it would just go to my aunt. And all the offerings that were burnt during Ching Ming had no name written on too.
That very Ching Ming, my mum bought the credit card and wallet as per told and we wrote down her name by ourselves.
My aunt didn’t visit my dream anymore.
Many donkey years down when I got married and had DS1. Got this weird dream again.
My aunt told me not miss her so much. Bec she had to come ‘up’ to see me as if I was summoning her. She told me to let her ‘go’. I was then brought to her world to see what she had achieved over the years - like a catch up session. She said that she found that someone and is ‘married’ and they had this big shipping business there. And she’s so busy now. And just when she was talking to me, her handphone rang. She spoke like a real busy business woman, you know.
That was her last dream to me - to let her go into her own world and ‘forget’ about her.
Still miss her secretly though, but I guess I had somehow let that deep attachment go that she didn’t come to visit me in her dream anymore.
What do you think? It’s not so scary right? -
No it’s not scary… it’s sweet and my eyes sting with tears after reading that… sometimes we just have to let go… but deep inside…easier said than done…

In 1988, HDB sent us a letter asking us to relocate. The reason was they were upgrading this block and the surrounding blocks. The whole block was cordoned off after all tenants moved out in 1989. I passed by this place many times and only in 1990 odd, HDB tore down only this one block and reduced it to merely green grass patches... but I wondered why the neighbouring one room rental blocks were not touched. They were only upgraded in 2000...
:!: Geez, maybe there were some 'dark forces' which prevented the place from being torn down...
Yes, please share where it is... must make sure I don't end up staying there..
... it's at Bukit Merah View near a temple, opposite Henderson Sec Sch... once u are around this area, you can find the block easily... because it is the only 1 new block among the rest which are more than 30yrs old. -

Actually my mum took note of all the dreams reported by me (the dreams I've had is more than I've listed), and she said there is a pattern.Hmmm....
My second sister had a similar dream from my dad about kept telling her in her dream that \"the cheque was not signed and he couldn't take the money\"...
Then, she made sure that all the money and other offerings that we burnt subsequently had my dad's name written on the first piece of money on every stack...
This is just a few weeks ago...
Strange dreams...
I always had dreams like that when it is during Ching Ming period and my aunt's death anniversary. -

It's beside the coffee shop with the famous teo chew porridge. Those new build for old people flats? MIL leave near there and some times if DS go to grandma house, I will walk with DS home at night cutting throught that area. now my hair all stand liaoRRMummy:

My late mum who was 59yo, had no health ailment. She felt breathlessness on few days before we sent her to TTSH on 25 Dec 2008. On 3 Jan, docs said she was suffering from end stage cancer. And only on the 6 Jan, they said all scans showed she suffered from lung cancer, with cancerous cells in brain and liver. They started to treat her with a chemo drug on 9Jan, and that evening she fell into coma, passed away on 16Jan.
We had chosen those half glass panel coffin. We missed her badly because her death has took all of us so suddenly. When she was still awake during her stay in hospital, we had told her we would get the reunion dinner food ready, with shark’s fin and abalone…
We decided a 5days wake for her. All the 4 of us stayed through the 4 nights, my sis, bros and me would take turn in pairs to stay awake. One of us would sit next to the coffin to burn joss papers. Alot of times, we would even walked near to the coffin to look at our mum and talked to her.
On the 3rd evening, I could not do that anymore… There was a strong presence of the yin around me, even though my sis and bros were all with me. I sensed some beings were going round the coffin and praying their respects to my mum. My sis urged me to go near the coffin to burn joss papers. I kept shaking my head. It was only after sunrise, I told her what had happened. She brushed it aside. It was also at this time, then I dared to go near my mum’s coffin again.
I suspected what I went through that night is real. Maybe my late dad and grandparents have came to visit my mum, or maybe there were some curious onlookers then… -
insider:
There are \"onlookers\" as what I have always been told during a funeral. ...
Oh, so what I went thru that night was real... luckily I only felt their presence and didn't see them.... -

I believe it wasnt torn down because many (old) residents couldnt afford to move and also not interested coz they are so used to living in this area. That said, I encouraged my in-laws to stay until relocation, hoping to get priority when selecting the new flats.
With regards to the area being too ying, I suspect that the bad stuff could also be happening due to the higher concentration of residents from older age group, lower income bracket etc. -
