My True-Life Paranormal Encounters: The Bizarre Things I've Experienced

Based on true events, firsthand accounts.

Over the course of my life, I’ve encountered far too many bizarre things that science can’t explain.

On a stormy night, a nightclub hostess was pinned down by a ghost in her sleep. Something furry crouched on her chest, and a seductive moan like a fox’s cry sounded beside her ear. She began to walk with a sway, her eyes shining like a fox’s, and the men around her started meeting with strange accidents one after another: the boss’s brakes failed in a car crash, the bartender lost his mind, and a young man fell to his death from scaffolding, still clutching a strand of snowy-white fox fur. White hairs that couldn’t be pulled out sprouted on the back of her neck, and a strange fox face appeared in the mirror. She was controlled and made to seduce men, her whole body emanating the cold, rank scent of plants from the deep mountains... until a shaman from her hometown revealed the truth with a single sentence: a nine-tailed fox that had cultivated for over a century had possessed her, sustaining itself by feeding on yang energy. During the exorcism on the night of the full moon, she roared as fox fur sprouted across her body and her nails sharpened. The deadly struggle between human and fox nearly brought down even the shaman!

Think that’s the end of it? No.

There was also a construction worker who urinated in the weeds at a worksite and found his back bent at a ninety-degree angle; a Japanese woman possessed by a palace maid at the Ming Tombs, who woke in the middle of the night with an icy body and the words “Carry me out” echoing in her ears; and a curse that no one in a family of three generations could escape. It began with a daughter-in-law who left home before dawn carrying sesame flatbread, and passed from one generation to the next. To this day, it remains unresolved...

I didn’t make these stories up. I’m Senior Brother Hong Liang. Before I took refuge in Buddhism, I was just an ordinary person. It wasn’t until I witnessed the entire process of a nine-tailed fox possessing someone with my own eyes that I realized the world was far bigger than what we could see. From then on, I began recording the supernatural events experienced by people around me. Every one has real names and can be verified.

Rural legends, folk taboos, midnight horrors, strange encounters with the dead...
