Baram Field, The Next Morning

This incident happened more than 10 years ago, maybe almost 20 years ago.

HJ was working for a well-known Miri oil and gas company. That time, he was assigned to carry out workscoping for a project at the Baram field.



The workscoping team consisted of only about 5 men, and it was supposed to be a daily-tripping job, as there was no LQ at Baram.

However, the weather was very bad that day. The scheduled boat was postponed until the next day. So HJ was stuck there in the middle of the sea with no toothbrush, and no spare clothes. The men had to sleep in a porta-cabin, while waiting for the boat to arrive the next day.

The next morning, HJ was woken up by a strange sound. He distinctly heard a rooster crowing outside! HJ felt a chill pass through him. That was impossible, as there were definitely no poultry on the unmanned platform!

HJ is retired now, but he remembers that unusual morning even after so many years have passed. The morning he was woken up by a cock's crow in the middle of the sea.

According to HJ, there are many spirits out in the open sea and some things just cannot be explained.

Little Terrier Barking

Jade was home alone. This is the same girl as here and here. It was late at night and her two housemates were out.
Usually, when she was home alone, her housemate's little terrier would stay close to her. The small dog did not like to be left alone. It was a very small dog, about the size of a medium-sized cat.


That night, it was raining heavily. The little dog was standing near the living room. The living room light was off, as usual. The little terrier was just standing there staring in the dark, in the direction of the front door.
Jade picked the terrier up and brought it over to her room.
But the little dog struggled and ran back to stare at the living room.

Jade tried to get the little dog to follow her, but the dog ignored her. The little dog started to bark. The tiny terrier was standing stiffly there barking at nothing. Jade tried to call the dog again, but it continued to stand there, barking.

Jade suddenly felt cold. Scared, she went back to her room and locked the door. She could still hear the little dog barking. The dog continued to bark non-stop for about an hour.
