History of the ghost’s house, Chi Phat Eco Tourism site, Tmar Bang district, Koh Kong province


(Written by Ty Theavy)

This house no one can stay inside because the people believe that it is a house of the ghost. It was only built in 1994. Its owner also cannot stay; this is because his former wife’s soul is angry with him for deciding to marry his second wife. This house belongs to Mr. Ly. His former wife had been ill and it was thought she would get better if she did not eat.  Unfortunately, before she recovered, she died of starvation.  The villagers say that almost every night they see her ghost haunting here. Many people have seen the ghost carrying a coffin up inside the house - even foreigners. Now this house is used as an English Class by CBET project providing English to the poor villagers’ kids and CBET members.
