Horror buffs, you’re in for a terrifying treat!
You would know by now that Asian ghosts tend to be a wee bit scarier than the
ang moh ones, especially those that hail from our neighbouring country, Thailand. (Honestly,
Shutter still gives us the chills!)
Well if you’re looking forward to the next horror story from Thai, look no further because Astro BOO has launched its first original horror series titled
3 A.M. Bangkok Ghost Stories.
The 13-episode bone-chilling series will start airing from
28 October onwards, and subsequently
every Saturday at 3am. Yes guys, they even went to the extent of airing it on the witching hour to give it an even creepier vibe.
Careful
ah, who knows some other paranormal beings are also watching with you.
Every episode will have a few things in common – the stories will take place in Thailand and each plot will revolve around a strange occurrence at 3am.
Rojak Daily had a sneak preview of the first episode of the series titled ‘DJ’ whereby a radio DJ is haunted by a mystery caller who had previously phoned in and told him she was going to commit suicide. The DJ thought it was a prank and told her to go ahead and do it.
Little did he know, his words would literally come back to haunt him.
The episode stars prominent Thai actress/singer Chansakorn Kittiwattanakorn of “
True Academy Fantasia Season 10” fame and and actor Paranyu Rojanawuthitham.

Other episodes we’re looking forward to see are ‘Nurse’, ‘Taxi’, ‘Vacant Room’ and ‘Bareface’. From the episode titles, we think you could sort of expect the kind of
hantu you can expect to turn up, and that makes it all the more exciting!
So, how and where can you watch this series?
