What started as a stroke of good luck quickly turned into a nightmare for one Bangkok man who recovered his lost phone - only to discover bone-chilling photographs of a decomposed corpse lurking inside his gallery.
Nattapon thought his ordeal was over when a stranger returned his misplaced device, which he had dropped near Chaeng Watthana Soi 14. But once home, curiosity turned to sheer horror as he scrolled through the camera roll: there were images of skeletal remains, left to rot in an abandoned building.
Shocked and terrified, he rushed to the police. Officers from Pak Kret Station in Nonthaburi wasted no time, combing through the eerie four-story building at Soi Chaeng Watthana-Pak Kret 43/1. On the third floor, their worst fears were confirmed - an almost unrecognizable body, reduced to bones and scraps of flesh, was found sprawled near a mattress. Investigators estimated the corpse had been decaying there for at least three to four months.
The victim was later identified as Mr. La, 55, from Lampang Province, through an ID card found beneath the mattress. His devastated family revealed he had left Chiang Mai years earlier to seek work in Bangkok, vanishing from contact more than a year ago.
The mystery deepened with the account of 30-year-old Srayut, nicknamed “Bass”, the man who had picked up Nattapon’s phone. Bass admitted he could only access the camera function. Wandering through the crumbling building where he sometimes scavenged for scrap, he stumbled upon the horrifying sight. In a panic, he snapped photos with the found phone - gruesome evidence that would later send chills down the spine of its rightful owner.
Police say Bass showed no signs of foul play and was visibly traumatized, unable to eat after what he had seen. “He looked haunted,” one officer remarked.
Forensic doctors are now working to determine exactly how and when Mr. La died. Meanwhile, his family has come forward to claim his remains for funeral rites, closing a tragic chapter that went unnoticed until fate intervened.
This bizarre twist of a phone returned with corpse photos has gripped Bangkok, leaving residents both horrified and fascinated: a grim reminder of the dark secrets abandoned buildings can hold.
