Following the deaths of 13 people, residents of Ban Tha Luang village in #Thailand have hung red shirts in front of their houses, believing they could prevent them from being attacked by a widow’s ghost.
Since most of those who died between November and January, aged 17-60, were men, the residents believe the ghost of a widow took their lives.
The most recent death was that of Boon-uan Baebphimai, 60, a villager in Ban Tha Luang said to be strong and healthy.
He was found lying unconscious one day on a village road and died shortly afterwards.
They villagers believe a red shirt hung in front of their houses could prevent members of their families from being attacked by the ghost.
The practice has been reported at several villages in the Northeast where a similar pattern of deaths occurred.
