00:00The area in the heart of Bangkok is believed to be a cursed place and it was once the site of
00:06the haunted Petchabun Palace. The area around Ratchaprasom intersection which is now a buzzing
00:12hub with big department stores like St. Helens Wall used to be the site of Petchabun Palace
00:17which had served as a residence for royal families. However, in 1992, the area was used
00:24to construct St. Helens Wall and this is where the hunting was believed to begin. It is believed
00:29that a spirit house belonging to the guardian spirit of Petchabun Palace was destroyed during
00:34the construction. Many have linked this to the tragic incidents that later occurred in the area
00:40such as St. Helens Wall's mall fire during protests and the bombing at the intersection.
00:45Some legends suggest that the monarchs who once owned the area placed a curse
00:51stating that if the land is used or owned by anyone other than their descendants, bad luck
00:57will follow.
