It isn’t uncommon to hear of ghostly sightings around Malaysia. However, it is rare to see one under bright lights in an MRT station.
A TikTok netizen got a shock when they saw a woman bent over with hair covering her face in the Pasar Seni MRT station recently. Many were curious about the situation and thankfully, RapidKL delivered an explanation.
The woman was sighted in the MRT station three days ago (12th November) at Pasar Seni. She wore a long white dress and was barefooted. What caught people’s attention was the fact that she was creeping along while bent over with her long hair covering her face. Needless to say, she put many in mind of a ghostly apparition.
TikTok user Atisahira caught sight of the odd appearance and uploaded it to TikTok. The video garnered plenty of attention and comments from other netizens, with most wondering what the occasion was. As one netizen jokingly commented, “Does she know people in Malaysia don’t celebrate Halloween?”

However, as it turns out, the lady’s performance was not for a late Halloween celebration. RapidKL stepped in to explain they had looked into matters and had thankfully received a clarification that had nothing to do with ghosts. “There was an event at Pasar Seni (held by) the Orang-Orang Drum Theatre,” they stated. “This definitely counts as (creating) content,” they added.
Regardless of the explanation, netizens got a kick out of the video with many relating to the woman. “If a girl looks like that, it usually means she dropped her safety pin,” one stated solemnly. “She’s looking for her contact lens…” another offered. “Probably dropped it by accident.” One user took a look at the video and simply said, “(My) back hurts (after) watching.”
Others praised the lady’s performance, saying it looked very creepy. “If she suddenly raised her head, (I) would surely run,” one comment read. “I swear, I would run then throw (my) phone at her. (It’s so) creepy, just thinking about it.” Some added that the woman’s performance had continued afterwards as some saw her going up the escalator while maintaining her posture.
It’s nice to see people appreciating the arts! Even though it does look pretty scary. It’s certainly not something you would want to run into while at the MRT station, but one does have to praise the actress’ dedication to her role. We hope her back didn’t hurt too badly after the performance…
