Mae Nak Phra Kanong is brought to make a film or T.V. drama a lot. She is not good at haunting, but she is keen on give luck and money too that nowadays she has changed into God who gives luck miraculously.
The Legend is beginning at the Mahabut Canal, the family of Mae Nak and Tid Mak is near the end of garden of the master Sook. Tid Mak is not a Phra Kanong people, but comes from Klong Toei. But Mae Nak is a Phra Kanong�s people who is beautiful as Thai lady. This couple has lived happily. But one day there are war, Tid Mak went to the battle while Mae Nak was pregnant and died before Tid Mak �s coming back and changed to Phee Tai Tung Glom which was very haunted.
The haunted was much more uproaring that there is no grave for her and had to bury her under Ton Takian Koo that ancient believed that it will plus spell and from that until now the spirits of Nang Nak can occur for anyone can see because of loving her husband and waiting for him to come back.
In the time when Mae Nak waited for her husband can make a horror to the Phra Kanong villager the most. Since, everyone can see Mae Nak�s spirits waiting for her husband all the time that they flee from Phra Kanong a lot.
The legend told that when Tid Mak�s coming back to his wife is Wan Pen Khuen 15 Kham . Tid Mak never knew the death of Mae Nak. Only he can see is Mae Nak and her child sitting in front of the house. He never suspects that Mae Nak is a ghost until he touched her hands and felt cool. Mae Nak so changes her mind, calling her husband to eat and the spoon is dropped, Mae Nak stretches her hands which is prolonged. Thus, Nai Mak has known the truth that his wife is a ghost with his child.
Some legend tells that when they are eating, the lemon is dropped onto the grounds, and Mae Nak see and keep the lemon with her stretched hands. So Tid Mak knows that Nang Nak is a ghost.
Nang Nak is very angry that Tid Mak does not love her, so Nang Nak haunts many villager. The way Mae Nak haunted are several kinds, such as turn up side down of her head, sing a lullby for her child, change herself to be a beautiful lady for other man�s wooing and then change to be a corpse and many other ways.
Because of her haunted, the villager finds witch-doctor to conquer her, but it falls until Somdej Phuttajarn Toh Phromrangsi of Wat Rakang Kositaram, Thonburi knows about the love power of her, praying and teaching her about the Anata�s rules. Somdej also Phae Metta, Utid Suan Boon Suan Kusol to her. Besides, Somdej Toh bring her skull to pray for her from the day she does not go to rebirth and then Mae Nak can change her world to the good one by Somdej Toh.
About the Somdej Toh history is not a tease because Krommaluang Chumphorn , Somdej Toh� s heir, has Mae Nak skull in his palace
At present Mae Nak�s Shrine is at Wat Mahabut, Khet Phra Kanong, Bangkok that the neibourhoods know and trust in the name of Mae Nak or they call her �Ya Nak� who is a sacred spirits who can make what they ask successfully both male and female. And it is one place to the teenagers ask for their love, but the most popular one is lottery begging which is very successful for the beggers.
For the offerings are: Food, Jasmin garlands, Thai costumes, Red flowers. These are the offering that they use to make their wishes for luck and wealth. But don�t make it naughty or non-sense because the bad things will happen to the beggers.
Furthermore, if you want to be as you wish, the trust is a big issue. The trick when you worship Ya Nak is that when you reach that Shrine, you should make a wish by worship that the merits that you made, give to Ya Nak . Give Ya Nak be happy, avoid from the miserable things and then make your wish as you want and you will receive what you wish as you want.
