A netizen shared a story about his father encountering a female ghost (pontianak) inside a lift at night but didn’t realize it at the time.
He shared that he used to live at a HDB block near Clementi Avenue 6 at the time and saw a woman in white standing inside the lift.
The lift reached the ground level where they entered the lift, but the woman didn’t exit the lift and remained inside.
Here is the story
“We stayed at one of the blocks just beside Clementi Ave 6 exit where the basketball court is now. it was wee hours in the morning and my father had just come back from night riding with his friends.
he pressed the lift and waited for it to come down. when the doors opened, there was a lady in white standing in the lift, right in front of the button panel. it should have been a red flag to him but my dad’s processor very slow la. so he didn’t realise at first.
he entered without wondering why White Lady didn’t exit the lift when it reached level 1. the kicker was when he actually asked White Lady to press the button for him. “level 10 please”. she didn’t move LOL. so he had to squeeze and slide his hand between her and the button panel and pressed the button.
it was only on the way up that he realised that the lady didn’t exit the lift, and that she’s in white, and that she has long black hair, and that she didn’t respond to him.
he bolted home the moment the doors open.
it’s a horrific experience but it ALWAYS makes me laugh when i recall the story. think the Pontianak was having an existential crisis when he asked her to press the button.”
