Ahead of Halloween, we thought it was the perfect time for a spine-tingling chat with Eugene Tay, founder and host of Supernatural Confessions. We dive into what first drew him to the world of the supernatural, exploring the range of eerie tales he’s collected and the cultural superstitions that are unique to Malaysia. Plus, Eugene shares his own chilling encounters, from a hotel haunting to meeting Penang’s notorious Ghost King.
