Nearly three dozen workers at a garment factory in Cambodia needed medical treatment after hysteria over a ghost spread among the employees.
In what had to be a bizarre scene, rumors that one of the workers had been possessed by a ghost began circulating on the floor of the factory along with claims.
According to Bun Van, an official with the garment factory workers union who spoke to the Khmer Times, this purportedly possessed person was "yelling for chicken to eat," ostensibly via some form of sacrifice.
The tale apparently was too much for some people to bear as "they started to faint one by one" upon hearing the scary story.
