Dab neeg Tuag ua dab lwj lwj los hem txhua hmo

Long ago, there was a Hmong story about a young Hmong man who came to work as a teacher, teaching children in a Hmong village in the mountains. He met and fell in love with a young woman, but she was forced by her family to marry another man. She was very unhappy and did not want to marry him, so she later died. After her death, she was said to become a ghost and haunt her former lover every night. Sometimes he could see her walking around, and at other times she appeared frightening and decayed, terrifying him.
