Where Got Ghost? 吓到笑

Where Got Ghost is an omnibus of three short films – Roadside Got Ghost, Forest Got Ghost and House Got Ghost – horror stories with a touch of humour.

Roadside Got Ghost tells of a swindler, Cai and his two side-kicks who perform rituals to scare their clients into paying them to appease the spirits. Later the three of them start a business of calling random people and giving them 4D lottery numbers. One day, Cai gets a taste of his own medicine when someone calls him and gives him a 4D lottery number.

In Forest Got Ghost, two National Service army reservist officers lose their way and take a short cut across a haunted jungle. They encounter a tombstone, a lady in red, a plump lady in white who invites them to her house and tricks them. The two men are left hanging from a tree. A year later, another two army reservist officers who also lose their way, meet with the two men.

During the Seventh Lunar Month, three brothers Bao Hui, Bao Qiang and Bao Huang pray and complain to their deceased mother that she did not bless them supernaturally in House Got Ghost. After that, they begin to see and hear their mother in their homes. One day, while returning from Malaysia, they meet with an accident after seeing their mother’s ghost. Neither of them are injured but as they get on with their journey, they see something that cause them to believe that their mother had saved them.
