Model becomes 'possessed by cannibalistic ghost' as she appears on live TV show - and so they interview the spirit

A strange clip, appearing to show a young model suddenly become possessed by a ghost, has quickly gone viral.

The young model was being interviewed on a Thai TV show when she told the host she was often visited by a sinister ghost.

Thirteen minutes into the interview, Thippawan "Pui" Chaphupuang, announced that a "pop" — a cannibalistic spirit in Thai folkore- had come to possess her.

Pui then slipped into Pop as the host asked the 'ghost' questions as to why it continued to possess the young woman.

According to an Internet translation, the host asked Pop: "Why can't you leave her?"

To which, the spirit replied in a strange voice: "Someone sent me here!"

The entity appearing to possess Pui's body refused to say who had sent it and demanded pigs' blood as the woman writhed around and shrieked, strangely.

Pop spirits are greatly feared in Thai mythical culture.

Folklore has it that they possess women who like to eat human insides and can even eat the body of the woman they occupy as they sleep.
