In an unusual blend of spooky and comedic, a Thai Grab motorcycle rider found himself at the center of an eerie tale that quickly made waves across social media. It was a typical Wednesday evening, until it wasn’t, when this unsuspecting rider shared a mind-boggling experience that seemed ripped straight from a supernatural flick. The uproar began on February 5, when he posted a screenshot of a peculiar booking on a popular Facebook group for fellow Grab drivers.
The booking was straightforward enough: 53 baht to transport a passenger, starting from Chulalongkorn Pratunam Police Station with an endpoint at Bang Poon Temple in Pathum Thani, a sleepy province not far from Bangkok. The discerning choice that caught the driver’s attention was the use of GrabBike Saver, an economical motorcycle taxi service. For just 53 baht, the rider was set for a 6-kilometer journey, around an estimated 20-minute ride away. With cash payment tagged on the app, everything seemed customary until the conversation took a ghastly twist.
As the dialogue unfolded, the female passenger, via text, dropped a bombshell that steered the storyline into the bizarre. “Please come to pick up the corpse,” she texted, following up with a chilling request, “Can you let the body lean on your back?” What seemed an ordinary job morphs into an unsolvable mystery. The astonished rider, grasping at reality, replied, “Wait, what? For real? At this time? How many passengers?” His alarm palpable, the rider braced for further revelations.
She clarified, in what felt like a punchline to a dark joke, that he would have to face the cadaver alone since her family was already waiting at the temple. To cap the spine-tingling request, the booking was made around 2 am—ample time for anyone’s imagination to run wild during the witching hour.
Like wildfire, this spectral saga caught the intrigue of netizens, sparking debates over its authenticity. Skeptics likened it to a prior incident involving another app-based rider embroiled in a hoax with an inebriated passenger. Yet our protagonist insisted the account was all factual, even as doubts loomed large.
Jumping deeper down the rabbit hole, Channel 7’s investigative reporters reached out to officers at Chulalongkorn Pratunam Police Station. No body appeared under their custody on the eventful day, spurring thoughts of a prank orchestrated by the supposed caller. Both the police and puzzled online communities turned the eerie booking into an enigma wrapped in a riddle. Authorities remained steadfast, noting that formalities surrounding corpse transportation strictly adhere to set protocols, ensuring vehicles—and not motorcycles—manage such morbid tasks.
Thus, amid the digital storm and waves of speculative conversations, our mysterious rider took center stage in a tale that blends the uncanny with moments of unintended levity. Was this a clever ploy for attention, an example of virtual mischief, or truly an otherworldly call to services beyond the mortal realm? The debate rages on, keeping the spirit of inscrutability alive.
This Grab rider’s story is absolutely spine-tingling! Ghosts catching rides now? Ridiculous but so fascinating!
I find this hard to believe. Sounds like an urban legend to me. Riders don’t carry corpses!
Having driven for Grab myself, there’s no way anyone would consider that request seriously.
Even if it’s a prank, it sure makes for an entertaining tale. Who knows what people believe these days?
Honestly, I think the rider just wanted a bit of fame. People do anything for internet clout nowadays.
I can’t help but wonder if there’s some truth behind this. We’ve seen weirder things happen, right?
Come on, Mike. A corpse on a motorcycle? Let’s be realistic here.
I get it, but sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction. Maybe there’s more to it than we know.
This is a beautifully crafted story. Feels like a modern-day horror flick to me.
It’s all fabricated. Why aren’t there any reports beyond social media? Sounds too fishy.
True, but you can’t deny its entertainment value. It’s an intriguing narrative regardless.
It would be illegal to transport a body on a bike. This must be a hoax, or the rider did a very poor job of verifying a request.
Crazy story! I think it’s a prank gone viral. The timing and place just make no sense.
A prank, perhaps. But still eerie when you think about it being 2 am at a creepy location!
This incident could spark new urban legends! Ghosts using tech to get around—imagine that.
Next, we’ll be hearing about haunted apps and cursed text messages.
We’ve become a society too eager to believe in fake news and pranks. This is another example.
Funny how ghost stories have evolved with technology. They adapt like everything else.
Ghosts on Grab? What’s next, rides for aliens?
I doubt any official report will substantiate this tale. If it’s true, it would be big news.
Sometimes these stories reveal more about human imagination than reality itself.
I think it’s neat how such stories show our fears and emotions. But, I agree, it needs solid proof to be legit.
I wouldn’t mind more spooky stories like this. Makes my evening reads much more thrilling!
Did the rider ever check if the booking name was legit? That could have cleared up so much.
All it needs is a Netflix adaptation. I can see it now: ‘The Grab Ghost Ride.’
Even if it’s fiction, it pulls you in. Funny and creepy, like a ghost ride at the theme park.
