00:00Thailand's tallest building is not just known for its stunning view, but also a spooky ghost

00:05story surrounding it.

00:07The King Power Mahanakhon, renowned for features like its glass floor at the top, is rumored

00:12to be haunted.

00:13Local legend has it that the building was constructed on the site of the historic Silom

00:22The King Power Group acquired the building from Pace Development Company in 2018 after

00:28Pace Development faced financial troubles.

00:32Rumors suggest that the haunting might be linked to the tragic death of King Power's
