A 16-year old boy named Mohamad Izzat Izzudin Hussin, who was last seen entering an abandoned bungalow that is said to be one of the five spookiest places in Malaysia has gone missing since early yesterday.
Police confirmed that the teen was last seen with a group of friends entering the bungalow, also known as Villa Nabila in Danga Bay, Johor.
The teen’s friend, Megat Irfan Abdullah Shahrimin, said he and his friends entered the compound at around 12.30am on Monday just to look at the villa.
“At first everything was quite normal but things turned eerie after we spent more than half an hour there,” he said.
“Suddenly a few of our friends started screaming hysterically while shouting at us. We then ran out of the place to a nearby mosque to seek help,” he added. He also mentioned that the missing teen was part of the group but was not a close friend.
“I don’t know what happened to him and only realised that he was missing when a mutual friend asked me if I had seen him,” he said.
Johor Baru (South) Deputy Supt Abdul Samad Salleh said police had received a missing persons report yesterday from the teenager’s mother, Norhayati Mohamad, aged 39, at around 1am.
“We used a canine unit and Fire and Rescue Department personnel to search the area, but could not find the boy,” he said, adding that the area was the size of four football fields.
The US-based travel portal Expedia had previously listed the house as among the five most haunted places in Malaysia.
The bungalow has held untold secrets for over 40 years and there are several versions of stories to how it earned its status. One was regarding a murder that took place among a wealthy Caucasian family that once lived in the house. Another tells of how the maid was behind the murder and killed the family, including a daughter named Nabila, and buried their bodies in the compound.
More to come. In the meantime, do you think that the spirits have “kidnapped” the teenager?
