Exorcising the ghost at Bangkok's new airport

A religious rite organised over the weekend to quell fears that Bangkok's new $3.8 billion airport was haunted by dissatisfied ghosts apparently failed to achieve its purpose.

The rite, involving 99 Buddhist monks, was interrupted mid-prayer Saturday by an unidentified man who claimed to be "Phu Ming", or "Grandfather Ming", who demanded that a proper "spirit house" be built to assure the smooth operation of the airport, the Bangkok Post reported Sunday.

The man reportedly passed out after delivering his message. When he awoke, the spirit had left him.

"Spirit houses" are part of Thailand's traditional belief system. The small shrines are meant to show respect to the spirits that inhabited a plot of land before the new owner.

Ghost sighting by superstitious workers were common during the construction period.
