THE Maibelo family was over the moon when they moved into their new house 10 years ago.
But their joy was shortlived when the family from Makgapaneng Village, outside Jane Furse in Limpopo began to be tortured by an invisible creature.
The creature started making loud sounds on top of their roof nine months after they moved in.
Kagiso Maibelo’s (39) told Daily Sun that everything was fine when she moved into the new house with her mother and son.
“One day we heard a loud sound on our roof as if someone had dropped a stone on it.
“We went outside to check as it was daytime but we didn’t see anything on the roof. We were shocked when the noises continued,” Kagiso said.
She said that was the beginning of their nightmare.
“Sometimes the noise sounds as if someone is clapping hands on top of the roof though we can’t see anything.
“My mother, who is dead now, suggested we find a prophet to help us as we believed it was a tokoloshe.”
Kagiso says the invisible creature makes a noise during the day and at night but the sound is louder when it’s sunny.
“Cloudy days are blissful for us as that’s the only time we get peace. We wish we knew what was really going on here.”
Kagiso said they’ve been to prophets, traditional healers and pastors to no avail.
“Every time someone comes to chase out the invisible creature it is quiet for a few days but comes back even more loudly.
“And my mother died last year with a broken heart. Daily Sun is now my last hope.”
