A village in Thailand has become so concerned about a purported ghost lurking in their midst that they have enlisted the help of police to patrol the streets.
Residents say that they have been plagued by the presence of an entity known as a 'phi pob,' which is an infamous ghost in Thai folklore that can allegedly possess people.
The phi pob is also said to be able to torment a whole village with its presence, which appears to be the case in this instance, whether the spirit is real or not.
Following the death of four cows in the village as well as an unexplained illness that befell four police academy students, residents have become convinced that their community is harboring a phi pob.
