The Supernatural in Bali Reading Chapter 13 from Sekala and Niskala
This is a third video on Bali. It's a reading of Chapter 13 'The Supernatural: Spooks, Demons and Unseen Forces Spirits' from Fred B Eiseman Jnr 's book 'BALI: Sekala and Niskala; Essays on Religion, Ritual and Art'. It adds to the fascination many people have with this island.
It seems seems to be part of a growing series.
