The Fabric

WIANG CHAI YA CHET BURI 1,000 YEARS AGO

Hello, all!

We're here for the show, "Ghost in the Daylight".

The neighbors report that they've seen a figure walking around in this house.

DIE

Crap!

What should we do?

ACHI

Nope, not good.

Your emotions are not genuine.

Pretending to be a ghost?

A phantom ghost?

Do you know the phantom ghost?

-Of course. -Tell me.

It has hollow eye sockets.

You got it.

-When does the phantom ghost come out? -Evenings.

What the hell! At night!

Don't argue with me. See this? A trophy! My legacy!

-You did this for that? -Yes.

Wait a minute.

Aey!

Aey!

-What's up? -Come here.

What does this mean?

Oops!

I called in the wrong team. I should have called a different one.

They both share the same name.

Idiot!

-Get lost. -Okay.

So, redo the whole thing.

Deliver a new version.

-I'm leaving now. -Okay.

-Do your best. -Of course.

-I don't give people so many chances. -Yes, thanks.

-I'm going to a meeting now. -Okay.

Get out.

Please, he's in a hurry.

I forgot my notebook.

So irritating!

Hey! What did you say?

-The desk is shaky. -She's calling you. Please go on.

You should leave now. This is my room.

KHON KAEN, PRESENT

I think…

we keep doing surreal ghost stories.

But, let's film at night

and make it very haunting.

Also, go someplace no one has ever visited before.

I have a place in mind.

My great-grandma's house in Chiang Mai.

But, if I remember correctly, there is an old closet…

I don't know what's inside.

My great-grandma didn't let anyone get close to it.

It must have something inside.

SAN PA TONG, CHIANG MAI

Come on, I thought she would be older.

Shut up.

Follow me, dear.

I'm afraid to go now. Can I leave?

Follow me, everyone.

Around here,

the weather is nice.

If you get bored,

you can walk around outside.

But don't mess with the storage room.

If you get hungry,

just walk over to my place.

But do not mess with the storage room.

The storage room is in the main house over there.

Don't go there.

Nothing…

-What about ghosts? -Yes.

Nothing of the sort.

No secrets here.

Don't go there!

I'm warning you.

Understood!

"Wear this for a review in Ploy's Instagram."

Wow!

My great-grandma is quite the lady.

Anything for me to film?

Ghost!

Ghost!

I WILL MARRY YOU, IF YOU STOP LYING.

Go, go, go!

Ghost!

Who are you? How did you come out of this cloth?

My name is Anyananghomnuan. You can call me Homnuan.

I'm the spirit in this fabric. I weaved it myself.

If anyone touches it, I will appear.

Please! Please get back in it.

We're just visitors. We'll leave soon.

No, I don't care.

Once I show myself to you, you must help me.

What do you want me to do?

Help me find the answer. I want to know who killed me.

I could not be reborn because of that person.

It's all his fault. That bastard!

That jerk! Asshole!

Where are you going?

Nowhere.

Going home and getting ready for bed.

I see. You won't help me, right? Fine!

I'll curse you and you'll die in three days,

if you can't find the answer.

What did you do?

Placed a curse on you.

This is not real.

Nonsense.

Hey!

They didn't touch it. How can they see you?

I was using the power to haunt you.

The same power lets people see me but only for five minutes.

-This is too much. -Well…

Where are you from?

Nakhon Pha Ngam.

Is it is next to the Northeast region? Why is your accent different?

I'm a ghost. I can speak in any accent.

Everyone can understand me. Fuck off!

I think you're joking about your curse.

You'll be struck by lightning in front of this house.

I believe you now.

How many days left for the curse on Achi?

-Three days. -Gosh!

Three days!

THE FABRIC

ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT

Wiang Chai Ya Chet Buri.

-City in the north about 1,000 years ago. -How will be able to find it?

I don't know our history from a 100 years ago, let alone 1,000 years.

What happened to you?

I was strangled to death.

Can you remember the killer's appearance?

I didn't see his face.

What did you get strangled with?

Silk…

But I don't recall what kind.

But if I touch it, I will be able to tell.

Because I remember that feeling.

Just speak faster, don't keep pausing. So annoying!

You jerk!

She is ancient, not a rapper. She doesn't know Hip Hop.

What I recall is that, I was in the silk weaving contest

to become the queen

and marry Prince Rangsiman of Wiang Chai Ya Chet Buri.

The contestants were princesses from different kingdoms.

Each princess would weave her local design.

So you're saying, all of you fought over a guy.

Why didn't you slap each other and get it over with?

I'm going to slap you now. Stop interrupting, I'm listening.

Take it easy.

So the killer must be one of these princesses for sure.

In the northern town of Wiang Chai Ya Chet Buri,

Phra Maha Dhevi Srimony

wanted to find a wife for her son, Prince Rangsiman,

to strengthen alliances and expand political power.

Princesses from all over the country came in to meet him.

I, Anyananghomnuan, was the first.

I'm the princess from Pha Ngam City from the Northeastern District.

I was sure I had all it took to be a queen.

The best of them.

HOMNUAN

Next was Sarapee,

Princess of Pha-win City from the north.

She was so arrogant and fearless.

You bastards! Carry it properly. Don't let it fall over.

The third one was Sabunnga,

Princess of Kawinthalaburi from the north.

She was overconfident and didn't care much about her image.

And was a methodical liar.

She was also an alcoholic. She loved to drink.

And the fourth one was Gettawa.

She was a local,

born and raised at Wiang Chai Ya Chet Buri.

She was a distant relative of Phra Maha Dhevi.

She was a sweet, kind-hearted person, and rarely argued with anyone.

But she wasn't the Prince's favorite

because of her sickly and weak body.

But after the ceremony

the Prince still couldn't decide who was going to be his queen.

Because he wanted to sleep with all of us.

It was a waste of everyone's time.

People started using black magic, like love spells.

Apply it on your body and along your neck. Then you will feel the great power.

Sabunnga.

I passed the news about Sabunnga to Gettawa and Sarapee.

Hoping that they would spill the beans for me

and she would drop out from the contest.

Sabunnga! You're so evil.

I'll get rid of you.

For sure! You'll have no place to hide!

SABUNNGA

PERFORMED BLACK MAGIC

WITH A SHAMAN

What the hell!
