This story is being told in the point of view of Kim Do Jun, an accountant as well as a youtuber. To get more views on YouTube, he did something he never should have. And after doing that, bizarre incidents began to happen to him.
Five years ago, I got my first job in Malaysia. And I started a You Tube channel too.
"Hello, I'm in Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of Malaysia. I'm going to film videos of my life here and share them with you."
"Please like my video, subscribe to my channel, and turn on the notifications!"
"I look forward to your support!"
I thought I would be able to feel less lonely in a foreign country. And people told me if this went well, I could make some money too. I thought this was it.
And in my first video, I gave an online tour of my house in Malaysia.
"Ta-da, this is my house. Since it's the last unit in the hallway, it's very quiet. As you can see, it's close to the emergency staircase. So I think this is great."
The size was decent. And the house was well-lit and facing south. The location was great and the rent was also reasonable. It was the perfect house for one person.
After posting the video, I showed off to my colleagues too.
.
"After you watch it, please like and subscribe it."
I used to tell them to watch and help increase my views. One day, when I was telling them to watch my videos, one of colleague hesitated for a while and finally said something odd.
"Is your house the last unit in the hallway?" "Next to the emergency staircase?"
"Yes, it is."
"Can you move out now?"
"Why? Is there a problem?"
"No, never mind."
After saying something odd, he stopped talking about it. Something felt strange about it. But I thought he might have been worried because many people used the staircase. I tried to figure it out and stopped.
But I should have pressed him to tell me why he had said something like that. I still regret not asking him. I thought I would get 100,000 views and one million subscribers right off the bat.
That made me feel more competitive. I thought to post about something crazy. Then I saw Ghost Momo online. So I filmed myself talking to ghost momo on the phone.
The title of the video-"I talked to Ghost Momo on the phone"
The video received 560,000 views and over 6,000 likes. When my video with Ghost Momo went viral, I started to get more ambitious. I looked for something crazier and more shocking.
"Right, this time I will film a real ghost."
I thought about what I should do. Then I decided to film a video of me playing hide and seek alone after inviting a ghost. Besides, I decided to do that on July 1 of the lunar calendar, the day the gate of the underworld opened according to the myth of Malaysia.
"Today, I am going to play hide and seek alone in my video."
"Since I am doing that, I wanted to go all out. So I prepared something crazy."
"It's a raw chicken."
"All right, I will begin now playing solitary hide and seek."
I cut my fingernails and hair and wrapped them with a white cloth. And put it inside the chicken's stomach. I sewed the stomach with a red thread. I was done preparing for the solitary hide and seek. I chanted a spell to summon a ghost.
After chanting a spell, I was holding a kitchen knife. I lodged it deep into the belly thrice.
"The next tagger is Momo."
I had a mouthful of saltwater, so the ghost wouldn't hurt me. I hid in my room quickly. I started playing hide and seek with the ghost.
"Will it really show up?"
"What if it doesn't show up?"
"What if it shows up?"
I hid behind the door and waited for a long time. But nothing happened. So I decided to wait 30 minutes more because of all the preparation I made. I was quietly hiding in the dark.
I suddenly heard a strange noise outside the room. I knew instinctively that something had gone wrong. I turned the doorknob with my shaking hands. I spat the saltwater out of shock.
"What? Is someone outside?"
"Who's there?"
"I'm coming out now."
"I'm really coming out now."
To be honest, I was terrified. But I pretended to be okay. I came out to the living room acting all tough. No one was there.
All of a sudden...
My feet started to feel wet. When I looked down, there was a pool of water on the floor. And the spoons and chopsticks were messily spread on the floor. Something felt off and creepy.
So I quickly cleaned the house wrapped up the hide and seek game.
After this day, creepy incidents started to happen to me one at a time. I filmed the strange incidents and posted them on You Tube.
When I woke up, my house was covered in black mold.
"It might be the humidity. So let me try to dry the house."
I quickly turned the air conditioner to dry the house. All of a sudden, sharp pieces of ice fell in drops.
And on October 3, I did a livestream in a while.
"I want to move out of this house as soon as possible. So I put the house on the market but..."
It was in the middle of my livestream. The computer suddenly got turned off. And it got pitch dark in the house.
