So what is the legend say about this tunnell?

THE LOCATION OF CASABLANCA TUNNEL

Casablanca Tunnel is an underpass tunnel that located in Basuki Rahmat Street, near Kunian Area, East Jakarta Region. There is no complete details about the date of the tunnel has been built (judging from the structure of the tunnel, I assumed it's been built somewhere around 1980's). In earlier day, the location of Casablanca Tunnel was a graveyard. The graveyard had been moved to another place, near the tunnel. However, because it was not done in proper way,  the spirits were very upset and disturbing people who come across the tunnel.

It's been told that since the tunnel been made and open for public, a lot of strange accidents happen within the tunnel. Some witnesses said that they saw a lady suddenly appeared and accross the street. To avoid it, they stop the car in a sudden that make the series of vehicles' crash.

Other witnesses told that their vehicles's machine suddenly stop in the middle of the tunnel, meanwhile the machine's condition is in good condition.

The legend become much more scarier when someone hang himself at the entrance of the tunnel. The incident happened around end of 90's.

THE RED ROBE LADY

Most of the witnesses who encountered the supernatural accident in Casablanca Tunnel, confirmed that they usually saw a lady in red robe. The lady either only stand still at the edge of the tunnel or suddenly appear and cross-over the street. Nobody ever saw her face.

According to Ki Joko Bodo, one of the most famous Indonesia's paranormal, the lady that people saw was called Kuntilanak Merah (The Red Kuntilanak. You can read about "Kuntilanak" in this link : http://theghost-zone.blogspot.com/2010/04/kuntilanak-revenge-of-beauty.html), the most scariest and fiercest ghost. The legend said that she was a girl who burried alive by her boyfriend after he found out she was pregnant after, they were sleep together. Soon the girl died and turn into The Red Kuntilanak, seeking for revenge.

Kuntilanak... not the real one...

People said that while you are entering the tunnel, if you want to avoid The Red Kuntilanak, honk the tunnel three times. By doing this way, you asked a permission to the spirit to entering "its territory". If you did not honk, either they will suddenly show up or your vehicle's machine will suddenly shut-off. Believe it or not, you should try it for yourself.

Welcome to The GHOST ZONE

For centuries, many people believe in supernatural things, such as spirit of the death, ghost, curses, poltergeist, demon, satan, and other unexplained entities. Although science can't proved their existing, but a lot of people have encountered their present.

It is not happened only in Europe or United States, but all over the world. Each place has its own scary urban legend about the haunted spirits. In the present, the appearance of the spirits still debated. But a lot of people starting to believe that there is other dimension - that unexplainable  and - exist. Whether it is a so-called parallel world, spirit dimension, third dimension, or mirror dimension, that place is the "home" for the death spirit. In some way, spirits can pass the dimension and come across to our world, whether to settle their unfinished work, or maybe - just maybe - to haunting and kill us for no any purpose (just for fun).

In this blog, you will find the story about ghosts and other entities that become urban legends in every country in the world. Why they become visible ghost, it still questionable. But why they become the spirit, how they die, and what is their destiny, will be presented here.

So, for all Spirit and Ghost Lovers, I present you THE GHOST ZONE.......
