- 0:00Speaker 1: On camera. I was stunned. I was like trying in
- 0:02Speaker 1: my head. I was like, is it the wind? Is
- 0:03Speaker 1: it something? It's like you go through the rational route
- 0:06Speaker 1: first and just as I was like lost for answer.
- 0:09Speaker 1: And I thought myself, ok, I'm going to go with
- 0:11Speaker 1: the wind. Then doors start to open again.

- 1:02Speaker 2: Hey,
- 1:04Speaker 2: good to have
- 1:04Speaker 1: you here. Nice to be here. You know, it's like
- 1:07Speaker 1: so nostalgic. Saw
- 1:08Speaker 2: you looking around the set and everything. What's your EMF
- 1:14Speaker 1: we
- 1:15Speaker 2: now he, now he is on a different level. It's good.
- 1:20Speaker 2: So Eugene Tay is the man behind the widely popular
- 1:23Speaker 2: youtube channel, Supernatural Confessions.
- 1:26Speaker 2: The channel is a collection of stories recounted by people
- 1:29Speaker 2: with real paranormal experiences in every episode or tas from
- 1:33Speaker 2: incredible tales. We revisit different theme and how it ties
- 1:36Speaker 2: to the classic Incredible Tears episodes. Now, for this episode,
- 1:39Speaker 2: we're looking at something a little bit different, real life
- 1:43Speaker 2: paranormal investigating in the Ford Factory from season one. So
- 1:47Speaker 2: the All Felt Factory sits along upper Bukit Timah Road.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Many pass by without a glance at this one's dilapidated building.
- 1:54Speaker 2: In the first season's finale, the Incredible Tales crew revealed
- 1:58Speaker 2: some of its hidden secrets. So this is the season
- 2:01Speaker 2: finale of season one. So let's take a look.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Wow,
- 2:06Speaker 1: this is actually one of my favorite episodes from Incredible Tales. Yeah,
- 2:10Speaker 2: because I noticed when you know, he mentioned Old Ford Factory,
- 2:13Speaker 2: I saw like, like you were like weird gleam in
- 2:17Speaker 2: your eye.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Yes. Yes. I think when you guys invited me down
- 2:21Speaker 1: for this particular show and to show me this segment,
- 2:24Speaker 1: you probably don't know my history with SP I Ford Factory, right? Yeah.
- 2:28Speaker 1: So there's a lot of layers of
- 2:31Speaker 1: stories to share with you just based on one episode alone. Wow,
- 2:35Speaker 2: what is it about the place itself that gives you
- 2:38Speaker 2: that the glimpse in your eyes for
- 2:41Speaker 1: Factory when we grew up in the late nineties, early
- 2:44Speaker 1: 2000 was one of the main place to visit if
- 2:48Speaker 1: you're a
- 2:49Speaker 1: a thrill seeker, right? Hospital being one of them is
- 2:54Speaker 1: a red house. The White House and on the west
- 2:56Speaker 1: side is the Ford Factory. And that's where the Japanese,
- 3:00Speaker 1: you know, had that signing with the British. So there's
- 3:04Speaker 1: a lot of history behind it and because it's abandoned
- 3:06Speaker 1: and it was actually a,
- 3:08Speaker 1: a heritage site. So all the more is a lot
- 3:11Speaker 1: of debt to that place that we wanted to win. Investigate.
- 3:16Speaker 1: And again, back then why I say we're not paranormal
- 3:18Speaker 1: investigators because we didn't know what we were investigating. We
- 3:21Speaker 1: just went in, we scream like a girl and we
- 3:23Speaker 1: ran out, I watched this and you know, the guy
- 3:27Speaker 1: screaming and the girl running. I remember, I sit here
- 3:30Speaker 1: and I remember very clearly how I felt then and
- 3:34Speaker 1: watching it again, how I'm feeling now, like who apart?
- 3:38Speaker 1: Ah, I guess the way to explain it is be
- 3:40Speaker 1: like if you are not into filmmaking and you watch
- 3:43Speaker 1: a movie, you watch it for the excitement, the horror.
- 3:46Speaker 1: But when you're a filmmaker, you be like the lighting
- 3:48Speaker 1: is here. I think the shadow is that problem. You
- 3:51Speaker 1: look at all the detail of the film making and
- 3:53Speaker 1: enjoying it for the story itself. So that's kind of
- 3:57Speaker 1: where I am now with that. I'd be like, ok,
- 3:59Speaker 1: that is an out flying by. Did anyone not notice that?
- 4:02Speaker 1: Or could it be a dust? Are we debunking this?
- 4:04Speaker 1: And so the guy is laughing a lot because he
- 4:06Speaker 1: is scared. So I'm reading all these things and looking
- 4:10Speaker 1: back and watching this again, comparing it from now and
- 4:12Speaker 1: then
- 4:13Speaker 1: there is so much more that I can do with
- 4:17Speaker 1: this one scene compared to the guy who says, are
- 4:19Speaker 1: you crazy haunted place? Yeah.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Yeah. But like, but like when, when you explore that place, right?
- 4:26Speaker 2: It was abandoned. So I believe now is like, conserve
- 4:29Speaker 2: and second museum, right? So why do you think that
- 4:33Speaker 2: is so haunted? Nobody died, right? Like it's just a
- 4:36Speaker 2: signing place, right? Why is it so haunted?
- 4:38Speaker 1: Exactly. So that's the,
- 4:42Speaker 2: that's the first part.
- 4:45Speaker 1: So when I watched it before and when I went
- 4:49Speaker 1: down to Ford Factory, abandon the minute, the mere mention
- 4:52Speaker 1: of the word Japanese brings to mind viciousness, death and murder.
- 4:59Speaker 1: So it is with this connotation that you think that
- 5:02Speaker 1: place is haunted, but you're absolutely right. Where's the death?
- 5:06Speaker 1: Where's a tragedy? Nothing. So what brings horror to the place?
- 5:10Speaker 1: And as investigators now you're going to ask these kind
- 5:13Speaker 1: of questions, what happened here and I cannot answer that.
- 5:18Speaker 1: I would not be able to answer why there's one thing.
- 5:20Speaker 1: And when we watched this episode, one episode 13, season one,
- 5:24Speaker 1: the hypothesis was that the Japanese would come back. I
- 5:29Speaker 1: don't think the Japanese wants to come back here. There
- 5:31Speaker 1: is nothing in it for them to come back. They
- 5:33Speaker 1: didn't lose, they won.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Right? It's a happy place for them. But if anything
- 5:37Speaker 1: at all that would come in is because the place
- 5:39Speaker 1: is empty, is deserted, right? Is a lot of in energy.
- 5:44Speaker 1: So all these homeless spirits would then come in and
- 5:46Speaker 1: take residence here. So they're not going to haunt the place,
- 5:49Speaker 1: they're going to try to chase you out. So if
- 5:51Speaker 1: you go in and
- 5:51Speaker 1: to start a step on their peace, they can try
- 5:55Speaker 1: to scare you to leave the place. So not the
- 5:57Speaker 1: Japanese I think could be any random spirits. I'm just
- 5:59Speaker 2: gonna tap on that. My belief as well back in
- 6:03Speaker 2: my culture is that if a place is abandoned, it
- 6:05Speaker 2: can be anyone's else home, but it doesn't mean
- 6:08Speaker 2: anyone else as in human form spirits. So the longer
- 6:13Speaker 2: it is, it could be somebody, some spirit who just
- 6:15Speaker 2: wants to rest. But we have intruded their spirits back
- 6:18Speaker 2: when I was in ns whenever we have Phil camp, right?
- 6:22Speaker 2: The mys from the specific coy go down to this
- 6:29Speaker 2: that play together with a priest to, you know, do
- 6:34Speaker 2: some rituals and they say I just came back with
- 6:37Speaker 2: so and so I'm like, oh must do that at
- 6:39Speaker 2: that moment in time because it's not written, but it's
- 6:42Speaker 2: done
- 6:43Speaker 1: the camp two or camp three at the Rocky Hills area.
- 6:47Speaker 1: That's my place. That's your place to be.
- 6:50Speaker 1: It was an abandoned camp for some time. And I
- 6:53Speaker 1: was the batch of army soldiers moving from Pasir Laba
- 6:58Speaker 1: to camp two. So when we moved to camp 21
- 7:01Speaker 1: of the things we did was, and I volunteered, I
- 7:03Speaker 1: didn't know I was volunteering for. They never tell you
- 7:05Speaker 1: they say any volunteers you just put up your hand.
- 7:07Speaker 1: So I went down and I was with the Taoist
- 7:08Speaker 1: priest holding his sack of rice as he went around
- 7:12Speaker 1: blessing the place. And there were five of them. Not
- 7:14Speaker 1: just him. Different, different religious heads. Yeah. So that one,
- 7:18Speaker 1: I can tell you for a fact it happened.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Wow.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Apparently there's a shrine in Pulau. Yes, there's a shrine
- 7:24Speaker 2: that they pray to. But it's usually not the, the
- 7:27Speaker 2: high ups, not the officers. It's usually the injects or
- 7:31Speaker 2: the master sergeants that somehow they will be tasked to
- 7:34Speaker 2: do it because I have a friend who works with
- 7:37Speaker 2: a temple. Then they do mediumship. So they were invited
- 7:41Speaker 2: to bless a certain camp
- 7:43Speaker 2: because the area way too much. And even then the guy,
- 7:47Speaker 2: like who got like, basically he invited the de to
- 7:50Speaker 2: come to say there's too much, we cannot clean it
- 7:53Speaker 2: or you will come back because this is the space.
- 7:56Speaker 2: But what we can do is that we can seal
- 7:57Speaker 2: it so that not too much. So, and then he
- 8:01Speaker 2: actually took photos of the place for me. I said,
- 8:02Speaker 2: isn't that like related to a certain
- 8:05Speaker 2: office? Yeah. Yeah. So that's what it happens. But it's
- 8:10Speaker 2: not documented. So the deity can't clear the whole space
- 8:15Speaker 2: because there's too many. I wonder whether that's, is that
- 8:18Speaker 2: the case for like other famously haunted spots? Like, well,
- 8:24Speaker 2: that's a very
- 8:27Speaker 2: do elaborate.
- 8:30Speaker 1: There are a few places in Singapore not going to
- 8:32Speaker 1: mention their names, famous buildings, right? Some of them have
- 8:36Speaker 1: already been torn down and some of them are still standing.
- 8:39Speaker 1: So there have been many different masters who went down
- 8:43Speaker 1: either voluntarily or have been invited by certain agencies to
- 8:46Speaker 1: cleanse the place and he says cannot clean too many.
- 8:51Speaker 1: Yeah, sometimes they can even make a pact and this
- 8:55Speaker 1: is up to the spirits to agree or disagree. And
- 8:57Speaker 1: most of these haunted places, there's usually one hit spirit.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Like even human human villages, you have the right spirit
- 9:07Speaker 1: was still the same. Actually, the spirit world and human
- 9:08Speaker 1: world are very similar. So if you treat spirits as
- 9:10Speaker 1: if it's human
- 9:12Speaker 1: abandon place, homeless people come on in and now you
- 9:14Speaker 1: tended to get out, they can ask you go where
- 9:16Speaker 1: they don't want to go. But if the medium is
- 9:19Speaker 1: high power enough, what they can do sometimes is we
- 9:22Speaker 1: will erect certain shrine for you somewhere under a tree
- 9:25Speaker 1: and may you all live there and I guarantee you,
- 9:27Speaker 1: we will keep doing offerings. So some of these places,
- 9:30Speaker 1: if you keep an eye open, you may find a
- 9:33Speaker 1: very large shrine hidden away from public eye. There's a
- 9:36Speaker 1: negotiation thing where we put this for you. You don't
- 9:38Speaker 1: disturb the living in the building.
- 9:40Speaker 2: I have a question when you try to seal those
- 9:43Speaker 2: spirits in, for example, it's too many right? You mentioned
- 9:46Speaker 2: that they seal them away.
- 9:48Speaker 2: Do they get angry because you're sealing them away? Does
- 9:51Speaker 2: it cause any have out if they try to break
- 9:53Speaker 2: away from the seal? And let's say, you know, offerings
- 9:57Speaker 2: should be made. But as generation goes by people stop
- 10:01Speaker 2: giving offerings. Have you ever encountered any of those
- 10:04Speaker 1: stories? There is a building in Changi just like that.
- 10:06Speaker 1: So there was a deal made for the spirits to
- 10:09Speaker 1: not haunt the building and a shrine was erected
- 10:14Speaker 1: and it was peaceful for six years of his operation.
- 10:18Speaker 1: And then, you know, they, they closed the folded and
- 10:23Speaker 1: no one took care of the shrine anymore after that.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Now the entire building is back full of people, full
- 10:27Speaker 1: of spirits, not people.
- 10:30Speaker 2: I think we want to know. And I think it's
- 10:32Speaker 2: safe to say it's the rain tree hotel goes on already. Well,
- 10:37Speaker 2: we'll find out whether it's safe to say soon enough,
- 10:39Speaker 2: it's closed down already. It's actually closed down. And I've
- 10:43Speaker 2: been in that building before, before it became, it was
- 10:46Speaker 2: a commando barracks. Yeah. So that, that building, yeah, quite
- 10:51Speaker 2: happening are some of the techniques that they used back
- 10:54Speaker 2: then by sp like the, the sensor, like the 7-Eleven sensor.
- 10:59Speaker 2: I don't think they use em f, at that point.
- 11:02Speaker 2: They had like a cold temperature thing that they measure.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Are they still being used by like next generation of
- 11:08Speaker 2: investigators like such as yourself.
- 11:10Speaker 1: It's a very good question. I got to give props
- 11:13Speaker 1: to SB there is no class, there's no udemy back
- 11:16Speaker 1: then for you to pick up your paranormal investigation skills.
- 11:20Speaker 1: So a lot of us
- 11:21Speaker 1: look towards the ogs to learn from them and I
- 11:25Speaker 1: think SP themselves learn from people overseas, right? Everything that
- 11:30Speaker 1: you see in this show, we have used it, in fact,
- 11:32Speaker 1: in the show as well. They have an EMF meter,
- 11:35Speaker 1: it's just not the EMF meter that you see. The
- 11:37Speaker 1: commercial one that everyone is using. Now it made popular
- 11:39Speaker 1: ghost adventurous. This is a bit more classic black box
- 11:43Speaker 1: with a, with a gauge that doesn't light up, it
- 11:46Speaker 1: doesn't make a sound. So it's bad for TV. That's why.
- 11:49Speaker 1: But they have EMF me there. So in my early
- 11:52Speaker 1: days again because et is a personal friend of mine,
- 11:55Speaker 1: a lot of my gears. I sort of t loan
- 11:57Speaker 1: from him and with the motion sense and everything. And
- 12:00Speaker 1: I'm not one person who just puts the item there
- 12:02Speaker 1: and say, OK,
- 12:04Speaker 1: now I'm done. I always want to find out how
- 12:05Speaker 1: does this work? Like why would a 7-Eleven Ding Dong
- 12:08Speaker 1: work with Ghost? There's no physical form. And he will
- 12:11Speaker 1: explain to me
- 12:13Speaker 1: sometimes spirit comes with a bit more manifestation or maybe
- 12:17Speaker 1: if a cat might even come in. So you're not
- 12:20Speaker 1: putting a ding dong to detect the spirit. We put
- 12:23Speaker 1: a ding dong there to detect a cat coming in.
- 12:25Speaker 1: So it doesn't mess up your investigation phase and then
- 12:29Speaker 1: also motion sensor because if this candle suddenly move in
- 12:33Speaker 1: the middle of the room and we're not looking at it.
- 12:35Speaker 1: But then when we turn around,
- 12:37Speaker 1: I see the sleeves so that not just moving like
- 12:39Speaker 1: that so slightly, it's just freaking me out. Yeah, we
- 12:44Speaker 2: just
- 12:45Speaker 1: so we want to be able to document as much
- 12:48Speaker 1: of our finding as possible. So that's SPS role. So
- 12:51Speaker 1: a lot of what we do now follows what they
- 12:54Speaker 1: did back then except to set up a thing like
- 12:57Speaker 1: that
- 12:57Speaker 1: takes hours if they go down and create a very
- 13:00Speaker 1: scientific sterile environment. First, here's the temperature, here's the pressure,
- 13:05Speaker 1: here's this, here's that, that document it down. And then
- 13:07Speaker 1: later on tonight, if something happens, I have a compare
- 13:11Speaker 1: and contrast to tell you something has changed and why
- 13:14Speaker 1: is it changing? Is it because of the temperature? It
- 13:16Speaker 1: was because of something I can then remove all possibilities
- 13:21Speaker 1: and whatever that remains is an un phenomenon. But today,
- 13:25Speaker 1: we are not so much, we as an industry is
- 13:27Speaker 1: not so much bothered with the science of it
- 13:30Speaker 1: because audience have no patience to sit down for the
- 13:32Speaker 1: 1st 20 minutes you set up, right? We just want
- 13:35Speaker 1: to see the ball move, we want to see the
- 13:37Speaker 1: chair fly. So a lot of paranormal investigations today is
- 13:41Speaker 1: more paranormal entertainment. It's like WWE LA. You have your,
- 13:46Speaker 1: I'm sure the work is real. Athleticism is real, but
- 13:49Speaker 1: it's choreograph for entertainment. And you as audience you kind
- 13:53Speaker 1: of know, but you still buy into it. Then there's
- 13:55Speaker 1: also wrestling, wrestling where it is really tch skills and, mm,
- 13:59Speaker 1: there's also a demographic of people for that. So usually
- 14:03Speaker 1: they don't really cross over. But if you like the
- 14:05Speaker 1: scientific stuff, you like the no BS stuff, you're not
- 14:08Speaker 1: going to go for the paranormal entertainment route. The three
- 14:11Speaker 1: minutes Tik Tok video where something fly
- 14:14Speaker 1: because you're going to go, I'm going to question that.
- 14:16Speaker 1: But the majority of the people that's enough. That's a great, that's,
- 14:19Speaker 1: that's my Saturday fix.
- 14:21Speaker 2: That's where paranormal investigation still becomes a mystery that makes
- 14:25Speaker 2: people want to watch it on your male gill head.
- 14:28Speaker 2: Are you
- 14:30Speaker 2: in a way? It's like, I'm like, I'm like, are
- 14:32Speaker 2: you sure you, because I mean, if I were to
- 14:34Speaker 2: see one, probably I faint even if you faint on
- 14:37Speaker 2: the spot. Is that real? Yeah, that's the question, right?
- 14:40Speaker 2: I
- 14:40Speaker 1: think anything on video is going to be up for question. Yeah.
- 14:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I was sharing in
- 14:47Speaker 2: another episode, right? Like how, like I find it very,
- 14:51Speaker 2: very hard to believe in like even the technology because
- 14:55Speaker 2: how do you even prove that certain cameras can actually
- 14:58Speaker 2: capture G like, I mean, I'm not saying it's not
- 15:02Speaker 2: possible but like the science doesn't, is not there to
- 15:05Speaker 2: support it. Yeah. So you work with the SB and
- 15:09Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure you've been in many very, very normal situations, investigations, etc.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Have there been a situation where you come in? You
- 15:17Speaker 2: have not set up the camera yet and things has
- 15:19Speaker 2: really happened. Like
- 15:20Speaker 1: hang out with the boys will tell you 99 times
- 15:23Speaker 1: out of 100. There's nothing even in this particular episode,
- 15:26Speaker 1: They still said it's nothing our equipment did not capture anything.
- 15:29Speaker 1: It's only reaction from human and sp is a lot
- 15:32Speaker 1: more stringent than
- 15:33Speaker 1: even myself. A lot of other groups these days, they
- 15:36Speaker 1: refuse to believe in it. Even if something is rolling
- 15:38Speaker 1: right in front of the eyes. Like I want to
- 15:41Speaker 1: know why this boy is rolling. There must be an
- 15:43Speaker 1: explanation but I'm going like hunt to,
- 15:46Speaker 1: I'm, I'm gonna go for that. Yeah. But most times
- 15:50Speaker 1: you would in investigation you would buy right now. 7 p.m.
- 15:55Speaker 1: to 7 a.m. 12 hour shift. Right. No perfume, no smoking, nothing.
- 15:59Speaker 1: You don't contaminate the environment with any scent. The equipment
- 16:03Speaker 1: must be all there and then you cannot be putting
- 16:05Speaker 1: it on full charge all the time because you don't
- 16:07Speaker 1: want to generate em f and you always have redundancy
- 16:10Speaker 1: because if one camera fails, is that technical or is
- 16:13Speaker 1: that hunt to again?
- 16:15Speaker 1: But times where after we set up everything, we waited
- 16:19Speaker 1: for hours, we were just bored shitless. We wasn't even
- 16:20Speaker 1: thinking about ghost anymore. And then things happen. They have
- 16:24Speaker 1: my most recent one which came to as close as
- 16:28Speaker 1: an immediate haunting as possible. Also, you see a lot
- 16:31Speaker 1: of technical gadgets in what sp I did for me,
- 16:33Speaker 1: I have moved on towards more of the spiritual side
- 16:36Speaker 1: of things. I would burn a come in. I put
- 16:39Speaker 1: a blessed or cursed oil to infuse the smoke with
- 16:43Speaker 1: the scent that the spirits want. And I want to
- 16:44Speaker 1: bring them to me.
- 16:46Speaker 1: It's a very warm way of saying, I'm here. I
- 16:48Speaker 1: come bearing offerings. Please show yourself right. So I did that.
- 16:52Speaker 1: I lit it up and I turned to the camera
- 16:56Speaker 1: which was on a tripod and I have a friend behind.
- 16:58Speaker 1: There's only two of us.
- 17:00Speaker 1: I walked to the camera. So this was just like,
- 17:01Speaker 1: really just set up, put it out down there didn't
- 17:04Speaker 1: think anything would happen. I expected to wait for a while,
- 17:07Speaker 1: walked to the camera, stood down, talk to the camera
- 17:10Speaker 1: and everyone from the audience could see the door behind
- 17:13Speaker 1: me start to close by itself slowly.
- 17:17Speaker 1: And I was looking behind my camera and my co-host
- 17:20Speaker 1: and he was doing this,
- 17:21Speaker 1: uh
- 17:23Speaker 1: what's going on there? I turned and I saw the
- 17:25Speaker 1: dog
- 17:28Speaker 1: and on camera, I was stunned. I was like trying
- 17:31Speaker 1: in my head. I was like, is it the wind?
- 17:32Speaker 1: Is it something? It's like you go through the rational
- 17:34Speaker 1: route first and just as I was, like, lost for
- 17:37Speaker 1: answer and I thought myself, ok, I'm going to go
- 17:40Speaker 1: with the wind. Then doors start to open again. I like, ok.
- 17:46Speaker 1: And I look at the camera, I look back at
- 17:48Speaker 1: the door and just to confirm it, like they want
- 17:50Speaker 1: to tell me it's not the win my friend.
- 17:54Speaker 1: Ok. La. LA. Yeah,
- 17:57Speaker 2: I just got a jump scare again. I was so
- 18:01Speaker 2: invested in the story jump scare from him going to
- 18:04Speaker 2: a door because your eyeline was there.
- 18:08Speaker 2: Ok. Ok. Ok. As a paranormal investigator, how has things
- 18:12Speaker 2: changed in terms of, you know, doing the things that
- 18:14Speaker 2: you do right now as compared to maybe watching this episode,
- 18:18Speaker 1: I was not born with a third eye. I was
- 18:20Speaker 1: never sensitive. I avoided haunted places and goes as best
- 18:24Speaker 1: as I can. I watch a horror movie. Sure. That's
- 18:27Speaker 1: for the fear.
- 18:29Speaker 1: But over time, I've generated a certain level of sensitivity
- 18:33Speaker 1: to the spirits. And I think what Kyle said off
- 18:36Speaker 1: camera just now is that this industry choose, you know,
- 18:41Speaker 1: and I think I was chosen, despite not wanting to
- 18:44Speaker 1: be in it, I was kind of forced into it
- 18:46Speaker 1: and to face whatever I needed to face and through
- 18:50Speaker 1: my own personal ordeal, I came out on the other side,
- 18:54Speaker 1: having more knowledge than the average person. And that knowledge
- 18:58Speaker 1: enabled me to help others who then came to me
- 19:01Speaker 1: because of a book I wrote about my personal experiences
- 19:03Speaker 1: and that was how super confessions grew, giving people a
- 19:07Speaker 1: platform to talk about it, having a support network. And,
- 19:11Speaker 1: well, I don't do this as a service and I
- 19:13Speaker 1: don't charge for it. There were, there were times I
- 19:16Speaker 1: had to go down to people's house because I was
- 19:18Speaker 1: called to help and part of paranormal investigation, not a
- 19:23Speaker 1: paranormal entertainment that you see on TV, is knowing what
- 19:27Speaker 1: it is that is haunting this place. What are we
- 19:30Speaker 1: dealing with? Because we don't know what you're dealing with.
- 19:32Speaker 1: Then you can't treat the, the, the, the, the problem.
- 19:35Speaker 1: Then that's where you take your findings, you go to
- 19:38Speaker 1: the right master
- 19:40Speaker 1: and then you bring your findings to that master. It
- 19:42Speaker 1: says this is a problem I'm dealing with. Can you help?
- 19:45Speaker 1: And if you go down to any master with that
- 19:47Speaker 1: sort of research precision, they are not going to say no.
- 19:51Speaker 1: What is the main problem with a lot of mainstream
- 19:54Speaker 1: people who needed help because they are clueless and master
- 19:58Speaker 1: is that you go down, you chicken and duck dog.
- 20:00Speaker 1: You don't know what you're dealing with when you're wasting time.
- 20:02Speaker 1: And then is he going to charge you a fair
- 20:04Speaker 1: price for his time?
- 20:05Speaker 1: And if he did that, you might call him a
- 20:07Speaker 1: call job because it's a business, right? So on this side,
- 20:11Speaker 1: then you have people who are close, don't even know
- 20:12Speaker 1: who to call and they end up calling people on
- 20:14Speaker 1: Google or, or any website and then they get fleeced.
- 20:18Speaker 1: So there's this big divide between people who are in
- 20:21Speaker 1: the scene and people not in the scene. So a
- 20:23Speaker 1: good paranormal investigator would go down, breach this gap, find
- 20:26Speaker 1: out what's going on, tell the human side of things.
- 20:29Speaker 1: Don't worry, I got this because when you are frightened
- 20:31Speaker 1: all you want someone to tell you,
- 20:33Speaker 1: it's OK. I've got this and that's what I really
- 20:36Speaker 1: do when I go on people's house. So that's the
- 20:40Speaker 1: difference between that and now for me
- 20:41Speaker 2: and it sounds a lot an awful lot like how
- 20:45Speaker 2: the warrants did it.
- 20:47Speaker 2: You see because in the States, right? Most of them
- 20:50Speaker 2: are Christians or Catholics. So to perform an exorcism, there
- 20:54Speaker 2: needs to be proof, they need to get permission from
- 20:56Speaker 2: the Vatican. Yeah. So they need people like the warrants
- 21:01Speaker 2: to prove that there is a haunting. There's a, there's
- 21:04Speaker 2: a demon in the house.
- 21:05Speaker 2: So basically the same thing, proof that the breach law.
- 21:09Speaker 2: So they scared I get paranoia. Then they go down,
- 21:12Speaker 2: they capture evidence, hard evidence and then they present it
- 21:15Speaker 2: to the church or whichever spiritual medium. And then, ok,
- 21:18Speaker 2: so you have this and it's up to you now. Yeah. OK. Eugene,
- 21:24Speaker 2: just simple short precautions that we all should take if
- 21:29Speaker 2: we ever choose to step into paranormal investigation.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Ok.
- 21:35Speaker 1: Do it respectfully. There are a lot of young influencers
- 21:39Speaker 1: come out to challenge this period because I don't believe, right,
- 21:43Speaker 1: these things are there way longer than you have been around.
- 21:47Speaker 1: And I always borrow this from what my grandma used
- 21:50Speaker 1: to say. Don't believe, never mind. Just do what old
- 21:54Speaker 1: people tell you. You live longer. You know, I think
- 21:56Speaker 1: there's a lot of wisdom to that
- 21:59Speaker 1: and precaution wise, I will share with you the Asian
- 22:04Speaker 1: superstitious belief when you go home, wash your feet. I
- 22:08Speaker 1: don't know how that works, but I do that anyway.
- 22:11Speaker 1: Till today, right? Going to, before I step into my house,
- 22:16Speaker 1: I still do this till today I turn around, I
- 22:18Speaker 1: face my outside of my door. I said I revoke
- 22:23Speaker 1: entry to any beings out there unless you are for
- 22:25Speaker 1: my good,
- 22:27Speaker 1: right? You don't even have to say in those words,
- 22:29Speaker 1: the intent is to say
- 22:32Speaker 1: no permission granted. You don't get to follow me and rules, right?
- 22:36Speaker 1: Or like what cause is there are rules,
- 22:39Speaker 1: they need permission to enter. So the whole dracula me
- 22:42Speaker 1: about being welcome to come to the house. That's not
- 22:45Speaker 1: just a Eastern European belief, that's also Asian. Yeah.
- 22:51Speaker 2: And I mean, like we mentioned before, so there's a
- 22:54Speaker 2: house spirits, right? For each house, I think across different
- 22:58Speaker 2: religions and beliefs, we believe to some degree there's house spirits.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Yeah. And I think that will protect you to a
- 23:05Speaker 2: certain degree. That's right. But for me, what I would
- 23:08Speaker 2: do after I go to somewhere like there's quite right,
- 23:11Speaker 2: I will go to the ultimate safe zone, which is mama.
- 23:16Speaker 2: So you basically anything that follow you dump it off,
- 23:18Speaker 2: but you must spend at least like 1 to 2
- 23:20Speaker 2: hours like dump it off.
- 23:23Speaker 1: The two places that we go is 7-Eleven.
- 23:28Speaker 1: And you want to spend some time there for the
- 23:30Speaker 1: energy to
- 23:31Speaker 2: diffuse, just drop off the energy, the sense, the poor
- 23:34Speaker 2: poor people who work as a very like, I'm just
- 23:39Speaker 2: here to do a job. You keep dumping your spirits
- 23:41Speaker 2: on here.
- 23:43Speaker 2: Ok. So before we go into the mid question, midpoint
- 23:47Speaker 2: question today, right? I have a very special thing that
- 23:50Speaker 2: I would like to share with everyone because Eugene Tay,
- 23:53Speaker 2: the man himself was actually on incredible like, I mean,
- 23:59Speaker 2: like 15 years ago, he was in one of the episodes. So,
- 24:02Speaker 2: so I want to show Eugene this episode and I
- 24:05Speaker 2: say I love the dramatic look this way. I thought
- 24:10Speaker 2: it was pretty good.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Thanks guys. Wow. You know, I've not watched this. I
- 24:15Speaker 1: couldn't watch it fully last time. So yeah,
- 24:18Speaker 2: I like, like, you know, you still sound the same,
- 24:23Speaker 2: you look different, still an investigator. So I was cutting
- 24:28Speaker 2: these clips out right to use. Then I was like,
- 24:30Speaker 2: wait a minute, this sounds very to one of my
- 24:33Speaker 2: guests and I was like, oh, there I texted Eugene,
- 24:36Speaker 2: you incredible to say, yeah. Now I double check I
- 24:38Speaker 2: checked the credits. I was like, I was like, oh
- 24:41Speaker 2: my God, we need to talk about this. You put
- 24:43Speaker 2: this in the episode?
- 24:45Speaker 2: Yeah. And I like how like he's like, he's trying
- 24:48Speaker 2: to investigate him. And then when he the colleague was like,
- 24:51Speaker 2: give me the sh he still walked towards it. You
- 24:53Speaker 2: can see like a bit of for shadowing. It's like
- 24:56Speaker 2: him here and now he is like, oh yeah,
- 24:59Speaker 1: for shadowing, for sure.
- 25:01Speaker 2: So can you share with us? Like how like
- 25:04Speaker 2: you got a role in this episode of Incredible Tales?
- 25:07Speaker 1: I honestly can't remember. Um In fact, I forgot about
- 25:10Speaker 1: this role until I think a few years ago, people
- 25:13Speaker 1: when this was on Netflix, then I started getting messages
- 25:17Speaker 1: from the community. Hey, you on incredible tears are like
- 25:20Speaker 1: I would love to be no, no, you are.
- 25:24Speaker 1: Then they show it to me. Then I recall that
- 25:28Speaker 1: I did this episode but how I got into it
- 25:32Speaker 1: who called me? I really have no recollection. But yeah,
- 25:36Speaker 1: you know, looking at it now and how I would
- 25:39Speaker 1: step forward into a contact place.
- 25:41Speaker 1: I think something has chosen me back then and let
- 25:45Speaker 1: me on this path. Do you
- 25:46Speaker 2: think that like by making a story about something that's
- 25:49Speaker 2: so tragic, the spirit will be angry,
- 25:53Speaker 2: all the spirits will be angry.
- 25:55Speaker 1: No, I don't think so. I don't have it on
- 25:59Speaker 1: a factual basis. OK. My sense
- 26:04Speaker 1: and even what I do with supernatural confessions. I get
- 26:06Speaker 1: a sense is that the spirits are appreciative. I do
- 26:10Speaker 1: sometimes I think last year I had a, I was
- 26:13Speaker 1: going to a meditative retreat and I was trying to
- 26:15Speaker 1: do a lot of the connecting with the other world.
- 26:18Speaker 1: I get a sense of appreciation. It's almost like, thank
- 26:23Speaker 1: you for telling the story. Thank you for making people
- 26:26Speaker 1: understand and believe in us. So I don't think I
- 26:29Speaker 1: felt anything at all of
- 26:32Speaker 1: an aggression or malice of feeling offended if they did.
- 26:37Speaker 1: And I, I've been doing this for nine years, come
- 26:39Speaker 1: to 10. I would have stopped it long ago because
- 26:41Speaker 1: obviously I'm not doing something right? But what I'm doing
- 26:44Speaker 1: with this storytelling with this,
- 26:46Speaker 1: putting all this together, I get a general sense that
- 26:49Speaker 1: the spirits one that the divine one that or something
- 26:52Speaker 1: else out of our human world is guiding that path
- 26:56Speaker 1: and says, yes, you're doing a good job. Keep up
- 26:58Speaker 1: at it. Yeah,
- 26:59Speaker 2: I think we feel a similar way right? For us win.
- 27:04Speaker 2: And I there are instances where we can feel that
- 27:09Speaker 2: we're very strong like that, that things are there on
- 27:12Speaker 2: set with us can feel it, but
- 27:15Speaker 2: I don't feel malice. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think, I
- 27:18Speaker 2: think that's the key point that we don't, whatever we feel,
- 27:21Speaker 2: it's not malicious. It's, I mean, I think for us also, we, we,
- 27:27Speaker 2: we try to find clear boundaries of what we can,
- 27:32Speaker 2: what we will and will not talk about when we
- 27:35Speaker 2: tell our stories as well. I think,
- 27:38Speaker 2: I mean, it's not like they give you a guide
- 27:40Speaker 2: book like, oh, here's what you can and super natural.
- 27:43Speaker 2: So we try to on the side of caution and
- 27:46Speaker 2: I think, I mean, we've used this word several times
- 27:50Speaker 2: during the season, but I guess it's all a case
- 27:51Speaker 2: of respect. So we try to be as respectful as possible. Like,
- 27:56Speaker 2: even if it's, even if the account itself has been fictionalized,
- 28:01Speaker 2: I think also it's a case of, well, you still
- 28:04Speaker 2: try to be as respectful as possible.
- 28:07Speaker 2: Yeah. Ok. So this question is for everyone who are
- 28:11Speaker 2: your favorite paranormal investigators? Is it Supernatural confessions or maybe
- 28:17Speaker 2: Ryan and Shane from Ghost files?
- 28:22Speaker 2: Well, you know, Eugene on set today, so I'm going
- 28:24Speaker 2: to see Supernatural.
- 28:27Speaker 2: I mean, locally, definitely I would choose Eugene. I think
- 28:30Speaker 2: he has been, he's a household name. But if you
- 28:35Speaker 2: were to ask me if my favorite favorite is definitely
- 28:37Speaker 2: Edward and Lauren Warren. I think they are.
- 28:42Speaker 2: I think the balance that they do is very well.
- 28:45Speaker 2: They are not like, you know, certain shows, right? That
- 28:48Speaker 2: is doing it for the gram like that. Like, they
- 28:51Speaker 2: purposely go and agitate the spirit. No, I don't think
- 28:53Speaker 2: they are like that. Yeah. And then it also helps
- 28:56Speaker 2: that they have a very lasting legacy. Yeah. I like
- 29:00Speaker 2: how my side of it. I mean, aside from, aside
- 29:03Speaker 2: from supernatural, of course,
- 29:06Speaker 2: I actually do like Ryan and Jane from ghost files
- 29:09Speaker 2: just because I think between the, like you said, the
- 29:13Speaker 2: paranormal investigation for entertainment and for the serious signs of it,
- 29:17Speaker 2: I am quite famously a coward. So I kind of
- 29:21Speaker 2: do need the entertainment element to kind of diffuse it
- 29:24Speaker 2: a little bit. Like there's a reason why a lot
- 29:27Speaker 2: of my favorite Incredible Tales episodes have some comedic element
- 29:31Speaker 2: to it because I can't do straight up. Like,
- 29:34Speaker 2: you know, scares all the way supernatural. I need something
- 29:38Speaker 2: like cut attention a little bit. So for me and
- 29:41Speaker 2: it might not even necessarily be ghost files in particular,
- 29:44Speaker 2: but any paranormal investigators that have that like slightly entertainment
- 29:49Speaker 2: factor to it while still being respectful as much as
- 29:52Speaker 2: they can be. But the entertainment factor kind of helps
- 29:55Speaker 2: me to take the
- 29:56Speaker 1: edge off. It takes the edge
- 29:57Speaker 2: off quite a bit for respectful. Definitely doesn't apply to
- 29:59Speaker 2: Sha Yeah. Well, at least one of them is respectful.
- 30:02Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 30:04Speaker 2: Fearful. Respect for me. I think stories are very close
- 30:08Speaker 2: to the heart really matters. Things are happening, especially in
- 30:11Speaker 2: Singapore and yours has a lot of very relatable stories
- 30:16Speaker 2: to tell. So I think that's where I get really
- 30:18Speaker 2: connected to your stories and hence I'll go for that.
- 30:20Speaker 2: But other than that, you know, like you mentioned, all
- 30:23Speaker 2: those investigators, they do explore at different areas of spaces.
- 30:28Speaker 2: I think when we are at
- 30:29Speaker 2: that location or if we leave there, then maybe we
- 30:32Speaker 2: could connect with them much better. But locally because you're
- 30:36Speaker 2: really close to us and it's happening around us. So
- 30:39Speaker 2: it goes to you.
- 30:40Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah.
- 30:41Speaker 2: Well, at least at the stable the consensus is clear.
- 30:44Speaker 2: Number one, man,
- 30:46Speaker 2: thank you. As we all episodes, we're gonna have to
- 30:48Speaker 2: wrap up quite soon before we wrap up. However, we
- 30:53Speaker 2: end every episode of Tales of Tales from Incredible Tales
- 30:56Speaker 2: with something weird or maybe dark or sometimes a little
- 31:00Speaker 2: bit gross. It's called our morbid fact of the day.
- 31:04Speaker 2: And our morbid fact of day is always delivered by Kyle.
- 31:08Speaker 2: So back in 2015, there was a smell based ghost
- 31:11Speaker 2: hunting tour in Los Angeles where participants were encouraged to
- 31:16Speaker 2: find infamous phantom fragrances,
- 31:20Speaker 2: but it is more this is westernized for us, right?
- 31:24Speaker 2: We said what smell, bro you want to play this
- 31:26Speaker 2: kind of thing. You know, the smell is quite, quite,
- 31:30Speaker 2: quite power and like there's different, that's the rotten smell, right?
- 31:34Speaker 2: French Penny then got on the center just now. The
- 31:37Speaker 2: one that you mentioned I was
- 31:38Speaker 2: to ask.
- 31:40Speaker 1: So I use but I add infuse Frenchy Penny blessed
- 31:47Speaker 1: French Penny essence into the K and that sort of
- 31:51Speaker 1: powers it up.
- 31:53Speaker 2: You smell that, that sounds like a perfume line and
- 31:56Speaker 2: nobody's going to buy
- 31:58Speaker 2: I think there was one guy who did it the
- 31:59Speaker 2: French one as a joke. Wow. Yeah. Yeah, hopefully as
- 32:05Speaker 2: a joke and not a real serious business designers. And
- 32:08Speaker 2: they are like, quirky things I've seen, I've seen, like,
- 32:10Speaker 2: design with,
- 32:13Speaker 2: they put the game inside the, they thought it was
- 32:15Speaker 2: pretty funny.
- 32:17Speaker 2: Ha ha ha ha.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Ah,
- 32:23Speaker 1: Frenchie Penny. Number five. Bring out in you.
- 32:30Speaker 2: Number five. Idea. We could do, we could do like
- 32:33Speaker 2: a fashion show. That is all the spirits, right? Then
- 32:37Speaker 2: you then walk like slow then ka in different outfit
- 32:40Speaker 2: like the bicycle, the motorbike on the lake on the lake.
- 32:45Speaker 2: I just want to make it clear that this is
- 32:46Speaker 2: all Kyle's idea.
- 32:48Speaker 2: No part in this. All right, a sold out event
- 32:50Speaker 2: guaranteed guarantee. Make sure you leave the front row empty
- 32:54Speaker 2: for them. Oh, yeah. You know the plastic red plastic chairs. Oh, yeah,
- 33:00Speaker 2: of course. All right. So thank you so much Eugene
- 33:03Speaker 2: for the sharing. It's been great. It's been scary. It's
- 33:06Speaker 2: been everything and informative and informative. Yes. So main point
