A makeup artist, Lina had an awfully weird experience while
working on her female manikin head a few years ago. The story happened when
Lina got an appointment to do make up for an actress. At first, Lina thought of
trying the make up on her dummy manikin head before the actual make up session.
She didn’t want anything to go wrong as the actress is an important customer.
Strange thing started to happen during Lina’s trial makeup
on her dummy head. After a while trying various techniques, Lina suddenly felt
that the dummy head wrinkled at her and she start hearing someone was singing
old songs beside her ears. Then Linda heard a rude voice said: “Stop making fun
of my face!” She could have sworn that it was her dummy head that had sung and
uttered those words because there were only the dummy and herself in her room.
Feeling scared, Linda tugged the dummy head back into the storage box.
Lina soon forgot about her dummy head as she had to attend
to her appointment on another side of the town. The makeup session with the
actress was over within an hour and Lina started to drive home at around
8:30pm. While Lina’s car came to a bridge, she suddenly felt dizzy and fainted.
Her car lost control and swayed towards roadside and rammed into a tree beside
the bridge. Lina’s car was damaged with the bumper fallen off. She woke up by
herself a moment later and subsequently managed to restart her car engine and
return home.
According to Lina, before she fainted, she saw the face of
her dummy head appeared before her and squeezed its face against her face until
she couldn’t breath and passed out. After she returned home, Lina immediately
took out the dummy head and threw it in a rubbish bin and burnt the dummy head.
Maybe that was a bad choice to get rid of the dummy head in that way…
After she had gotten rid of the dummy head, Linda took a
bath and just as when she looked into the mirror in the bathroom; the half
burnt face of the dummy head appeared in the reflection of the mirror smiling
evilly at her. Linda immediately took a towel and covered the mirror while ran
to her bedroom to call her friend who was a spirit medium.
Her friend, Sally came with her lady assistant Kate an hour
later. On entering Linda’s house, Sally immediately possessed by Guanyim’ma (观音妈).
The Guanyim’ma sang and danced for a while and she pointed her finger behind
Linda and said: “You flying head ghost leaves this place at once or I will whip
you with my willow twig!”
As soon as Guanyim’ma uttered the words, Kate suddenly
possessed and said: “I am not afraid of you Guanyim’ma! My flying head will fly
and bit your neck and suck you dry…”
So, the said Guanyim’ma and the flying head ghost engaged in
a spiritual and physical sparing. While Sally and Kate were entangled together,
Lina sat down helplessly and she thought of calling me: “Mr. Liew, I have a
situation here. Guanyim’ma and the flying head ghost are killing each other;
can you come to help?”
Because Lina’s panicked voice coupled with the background
noises, I sensed something was not quite right. So, I immediately drove to Lina’s
place thought it was already 2am.
Half an hour later, I arrived and as I stepped into Lina’s
front door, the Guanyim’ma suddenly shouted at me: “Oh, Laughing Buddha did you
come to help me? Quickly, put your hemp sack over the flying head ghost now!”
I didn’t know when I suddenly became the ‘Laughing Buddha’,
but I knew that I should separate the entangled ladies. So, I pulled Kate away
from Sally. At this point, Sally immediately made a hand gesture on Kate’s
nape; and Kate fell onto the ground and fainted.
Guanyim’ma laughed in a victorious voice and she turned
towards Lina and said: “Ha! Ha! Ha! The flying head ghost is finally
apprehended! Lina, you had offended a very powerful witch who is an expert in
flying head magic. This witch wanted your life because you didn’t keep your
promise to do makeup for her before her wedding!”
After Guanyim’ma mentioned the words, she too fainted onto
the floor. Lina and I quickly sprinkle some cold water onto Sally and Kate’s
faces to wake them up.
We asked Lina as whom she thought the evil witch with flying
head magic was; Lina couldn’t remember. Maybe the flying head ghost had gotten
the wrong guy after all…
