I will clear everything at the current moment, this house belongs to my dad’s uncle. In the Late 50′s all four brothers built quite similar houses, 4 of them to be exact, One in Shamiya, Two in Daiya and one in Salmiya (the one posted). Three of them were lived in and the fourth was made a diwaniya (the one in Salmiya). All the houses have been demolished and still are held by the same owners. They were two toned, white and blue. The only one left is in AlDaiya you could visit it, holds the same desgin. The house is not haunted, it was held on a valuable location that at the time it was impossible to forecast how much it was worth. How could people lower the prices of such a land create rumors about it. The family kept away from media and didnt care about any rumors. Since it was a sharp location
So basically the reason the house was vacant for all this time was because it wasn’t being used anymore and the owners were just waiting for the right time to sell it and not because the house was haunted.

I like the urban legend better. 🙂
What does “sharp location” mean?
Expensive property.
Sharp location is a very good location, which is highly valued in the Kuwait Real Estate Market. The phrase was translated literaley I assume. Normally a sharp location in residential areas, include a house located in a corner, with two roads.
People like exciting stuff. But real world is not that exciting.
I dont get it, so the dads uncle is the ghost?
Jk jk
Read the article again. The ghost stories are rumours, there is no ghost.
So the ghosts were there but now there are no more ghosts?
It was obvious he was kidding!
My mistake.. Cheers!
i see dead people..
So it’s a DEWANIYA OF GHOSTS.
I liked the haunted story better, now Kuwait seems all the more boaring.
Even with the Ghost story it was boring.
“I will clear everything at the current moment…”
Lol, nice try Ghost, we are not falling for that. We know you are still there.
+1. lol.
Anyone who sincerely believed there were ghosts in that house should shoot themselves right now…
Why so seriooousssss ???
Lol i’m loving the comments.
And to clarify why the Hotel is still not open is because the company is going through alot of financial issues, theres no such story for workers seeing ghosts.
Kuwait and financial problems?
I think not!
Its not Kuwait, its the owners and some issues with the deliveries.
Ghosts have jinxed the place man. They’ll never let any one open it.
these comments made my day hehehehe 🙂
and yea the ghost story seems better as i looked at the house growing up n was always intrigued by it.

PARTY POOPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙁
The ghosts got deported
+1
All haunted house stories, invariably, have something to do with real estate!
btw, why are we supposed to believe this? this could be totally made up. i believe in ghosts though.
lol, After waiting for so loong, I guess these guys now have paid these bloggers to clear that tainted image… lol … .. Y don’t u bribe that ghost out ??
So why did they build a mosque at the same location?
Damn…
Enjoying the comments so much! @Leslie your comment made me laugh out really loud!
Keep it as a ghost story, its so much fun and exciting to think of it that way.
so the mosque was built to help get rid of the ghosts then? did it work?
