This is a report
written from my personal encounters and other
witnesses' of a dangerous (both spiritually and
physically) place at ECP. Coincidently a number
of strange incidents happened, thereby the place is
reputedly haunted. May it be paranormal or not, I hope this
report would instigate some ripple effects to making it a
safer place for anglers and visitors who hang out
there.
Location is
situated at St Patrick's canal, behind Marine Terrace.
Commonly known to fishermen as "Four Pipes". At the jetty you
can breath some fresh air, catch a good view of where a blue
sky and sea merged at a horizon. It is simply relaxing to
stroll along the sandy beach. Best of all, there are plenty of
fish to catch. It seems like a serene getaway paradise from
the busy urban life. Little anybody would know about its dark
side. Read on, the following horror but factual incidents that
took place right there, will thrill you.


The following pictures are taken at a rare -0.02
tide.

The true physical dangers of the platform(jetty)
for tides above 2.8m would flood the platform causing moss and
algae to thrive. Slippery without any barriers or railings to
prevent falling into the rock filled seabed.

Left over pilings are still in the seabed, as you
can see.

View of the left side. As I was seabed surveying,
I've noticed something on the left seabed that looks similar
to a Taoist instrument "ba gua" (Chinese Feng Shui symbol). I
didn't take any photo of it as this pictures were meant to
be for fishing. The suspected "ba gua" is in a pentagon
shape, red in colour that's all i've seen for the rest is
under a huge rock and the only time to see it again is to wait
for another -0.02 tide, usually at around 6am. Was the "ba
gua" related to some haunting or exorcism at the site? Or just
that somebody disposed what supposed to be a sacred item at
sea, literatelly letting it return to nature?
In a
separate incident, a stone "ba gua" was picked up by chance
in a similar sea bed at low tide. This time, it is in a form
of stone seal, diameter of about the size of a human palm.
Probably it is carved or pressed on a piece of concrete.
The mystery is not only how on earth it ended up in a sea
shore, but what exactly that thing is and what it was used
for.

Scary
Incidents
In the recent months May and June 09,
it has already claimed 2 lives due to drowning cases at
the site of the jetty.
The following is an eyewitness account:
On 15th June 09, a lady was spotted walking down the beach and
suddenly turned hysterical, running into the sea looking like
trying to drown herself. Luckily there were two helpful guys
who saw the commotion and pulled her outta the sea in
time.
I wasn't at the scene of that incident as
reported but told by witnesses (one whom is reliable doesn't
talk "crap"), so I couldn't describe much about the lady.
This is how the lady was described: Eyes were noted rolled
back, only whites were seen. Mouthful filled with sand
and harsh English vulgarities spitting outta of her at
the top of her voice. The English vulgarities are utterance of
a series of common 4-letter words "f*ck" and other
insulting adjectives, behaving like a demon not humanly.
Strength of a superhuman for a Chinese lady. Shortly after the
police and paramedics were called in. Psychotic torment,
ghostly possession or on drugs?
 Happening in the scene

Sand was even thrown inside the
policeman's shirt for trying to restrain her, shortly after
the police managed to cuff her and brought her
back.
When I have first heard of this incident from
witnesses who have seen what happened moments ago,
my first thought was just another depressed soul going
for suicide. It made me think twice however
when they carried on the description - the
details of how superhuman she was with a demonic behaviour
like it's trying to kill the human and not the average
suidcial "I wanna die", and the way the "demon" was taunting
the cops even fooled them. (just like how you see in the
movies, it's not insanity but rather another "thing"
controlling her). The woman's behaviour is almost the same of
other incidents nearby.. probably 300m away. The last suicide
i've heard is at bedok jetty but not at the 4pipes
here. Talking about depressed souls, I have not
seen/noticed any depressed individual there, for most would be
further down nearer to McDonald's restaurant where they can
sit around. As far as I know, the likely causes of the
drownings here are mostly accidents due to slippery grounds,
not suicides. And that relates to another spooky instance
which I am going to tell next.

 Snapshots
from movies of how a possessed woman looks like. The look must
be dramatized when compared to real-life
cases
In the first incident, I did not get
to have a close look at the possessed woman. But almost at the
same place, I have my personal encounter of interacting of a
phantom woman that freaked me out.
One night I
was fishing alone and a young lady wearing shirt
skirt walked up to me, saying nothing but just stared at
me... At first I was at loss for words because that place is
in total darkness. She was quite near me from where she was
passing. She left shortly after a while saying "very
slippery" in Mandarin with a heavy China accent. She probably
was saying to herself. Out of kindness, I advised her to
watch her steps. Strangely she didn't respond to
me when I told her to be careful. With just my head
turn in a nick of second, she "vanished" out of sight.
I thought to myself, the woman was probably curious of
me fishing here. So she approached me. She didn't feel
right because of the slippery rocks, she might have
decided not to proceed and walked off without
replying me after I told her to be careful. It just
happened too quickly. How can a normal human
disappeared suddenly out of sight in such a huge
open space? A moment ago she was still gingerly
navigating herself out of the rocks.
My skeptic
mind kicks in, thinking that it may be normal that human would
look 'disappearing away' when visibility is at low, to the
extent of few meters. Was that lady a ghost or human? That
place is well known to be frequent
by beach strollers/couples in addition to fishermen. The
place is very dark for the nearest lights are about
50~80meters away. To me the place is a paradise
for fishermen. But most anglers would prefer to stay away at
night because of the terrain is too dangerous
physically. Hearsays of spooks cast fear on people that makes
fishing activities more risky. By my personal gut feel,
nothing spooky nor depressing was at the beach, but I
sensed a strong spooky feeling at the pedestrian bridge
which is at the back of the canal aboutt 150~200m away. Next I
will tell more.

Yuiiko helps reenacting the girl who walked in skirt at
night She was trying to test the walking speed at which a
human may appear 'out of sight' in darkness There
however, seems to be an orb following her...
 As
the orb is enlarged, do you percieve the orb resembles a
smiling human face or just a bunch of random pixels?
 The pedestrian bridge behind has
stories of woman laughters or babies cries heard

The canal where possession took
place before
This is the last paranormal
incident I talk of in this report around the area. As shown in
the photo below, the pedestrian bridge behind has stories of
woman laughters or babies cries heard that come out of
nowhere. Does this incident sure sound familiar? As I
myself have encountered decades ago (refer to:http://spi.com.sg/haunted/east_coast The
Grim Side of East Coast Park) and it happened within a 300m
range apart of each other. This is a third reported known
incident with similar kind of possessions that took place.
Common factors are noted: During the mid year (month of
June), victims eyes rolled back only whites are seen,
superhuman strength for females, clear harsh english
vulgarities. Is this the work of some demons who dwell around
this place? Or a pure coincidence of psychotic problems that
went wrong at those places? The truth is out
there...
