Miracle Or 怪談?

Actually this is pretty old news if you have been following the newspapers.

There's a temple at Tanjung Tualang and they have a taiko drum there. Unlike any normal drum, hairs are growing out of its hide surface since last year.

It made quite a big hoo haa at the village last year. Many people went and pluck its hair and use it to make amulet in hopes of granting them luck, etc.

Manage to snap some pics:

CRAWWWLLLLINNGGGG IN MYYYY SKIINNN

See those black black lines? They are not patterns or lines.

Another close up:

It's not patterns

How do I know they are hair? Gee I dunno, they are sticking out and they look like hair. No way I'm going to touch it. One of my rules to follow "Do not touch unknown or weird subtance/things".

So if you happen to passby Tanjung Tualang, you might want to dropby and have a visit. Who knows, the drum might moo for you.
