What happens when someone says they saw you in a dream—and that dream becomes evidence that your family put a curse on them?
Some people would dismiss it immediately. Others might wonder whether the dream meant something. Belief in ghosts, omens and curses is deeply personal, and this story is not about mocking people for believing in things that cannot be seen.
But in October 2026, in Sop Moei district of Mae Hong Son province in northern Thailand, a dream reportedly moved beyond private belief and became the starting point for an attempt to push a family out of its village.
The pressure eventually expanded to seven households. More than 30 relatives were reportedly included in demands that the wider family leave, while more than 40 family members and relatives were said to have been affected by the dispute.
