Fame, Black Magic, and Murder: The Mona Fandey Story

Before she was tied to one of Malaysia’s most disturbing murder cases, Mona Fandey was just trying to be a star. She had the stage name, the album, the wardrobe, and a husband willing to bet everything on her big break. But when her pop career stalled out, Mona pivoted—from wannabe celebrity to self-proclaimed spiritual healer for Malaysia’s rich and powerful. That’s when things got dark.

In this episode, we’re walking through the story of Mona Fandey: how a failed pop star became a trusted bomoh to top politicians, and how one of those “magical” ceremonies ended with a dead body, dismemberment, and a trial that Mona treated like a press tour. It’s a story about ambition, control, belief, and the price some people are willing to pay for power—including their lives.
