In Thai mythology, ghosts hold a profound significance, woven intricately into the fabric of cultural beliefs and traditions. These spectral beings transcend the boundaries of the mortal realm, embodying the impermanence of life and the enduring mysteries that lie beyond.

Central to Thai ghostlore are the phi, a diverse array of spirits that traverse the unseen realms of existence. From benevolent guardians to malevolent entities, phi manifest in countless forms, each with its own story to tell. Among them, the Mae Nak stands as a testament to undying love, while the Krasue strikes fear into the hearts of those who dare to venture into the night.

Legend tells of the Phi Krasue, a terrifying entity that manifests as a floating head with trailing organs, preying upon unsuspecting victims under the cover of darkness. Once a beautiful woman cursed for her sins, the Krasue now roams the night in search of sustenance, a chilling reminder of the consequences of greed and vanity.

In addition to the Phi Krasue, the Phi Pop are restless spirits of the departed, bound to the world of the living by unfinished business or unfulfilled desires. Their presence is felt in haunted houses, lonely crossroads, and shadowy forests, their ethereal forms serving as guides and guardians to the living.
