Ahtong 1st Gear July 31, 2009 Share July 31, 2009 There is an urban legend making the rounds currently about this old Malay woman who goes from door to door selling keropok. If you refuse to buy from her, she will unlease her pet Ms P on you. Another version is that she will ask to rest in your house and if you let her in, she will do something terrifying. In my opinion, this is a load of cow droppings but it is entertaining nonetheless. Here is a link The only makcik I fear is the one who can issue out summons ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjmsfire Neutral Newbie July 31, 2009 Share July 31, 2009 interesting... never heard of this though... some interesting local urban legends i have heard of since young are: 3. say excuse me when pee near a tree 4. say excuse me when accidentally step on ashes of burnt hell papers during 7th month When I was a about 4 or 5 I urinated at the base of a tree without saying excuse me (didn't know have to). Not long after, I got a fever that won't go away even after taking doctor's medicine. The fever won't go away for longer than the usual duration so my grandmother suggested to my mum to ask a medium what's wrong. The medium said that I had urinated at a tree which upset the resident spirit. So the medium suggested to my mum to burn some offerings to that spirit and apologise. She did and my fever went away. I believe it. Of course if you don't believe it, you can come up with all sorts of explanations to explain it away. Nevertheless, I won't take the risk of not saying excuse me again if I do urinate outdoors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahtong 1st Gear August 1, 2009 Author Share August 1, 2009 I have one major phobia regarding peeing in the wild. I am very scared there may be a cobra hiding nearby. One snake biting another snake if you get my drift. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahtong 1st Gear August 1, 2009 Author Share August 1, 2009 To add to the urban legend list, if someone calls out your name from behind during 7th month, you are supposed to turn the whole body around and not just the head. The superstition is that humans have 3 lights - 1 on the forehead and 1 on each shoulder so by turning the whole body, you can high beam the spirit.

Ender Hypersonic August 1, 2009 Share August 1, 2009 This urban legend is putting unneccessary fear on children/adult for those keropok aunties. Once a while my place also have keropok auntie, bought some before, and it's ok.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
