Collaboration Between Retail Business and Thai Entertainment Producers
This event combines strengths from 3 industries, namely retail, entertainment and pop culture, to reinforce the image of being a Lifestyle & Experience Destination in the heart of Bangkok. Sompol Tripopnart, Chief Shopping Center Business Officer of MBK Public Company Limited, stated that the shopping centre organises a haunted house event to welcome the Halloween festival every year and receives a positive response from both Thai visitors and international tourists. For this year, the centre has built upon the Soft Power of Thai ghost legends to create an Entertainment Experience in collaboration with Samsearn and iAM, with BNK48 members taking part in special roles at the event.
Meanwhile, Sirawit Sangvaributra, Director at Samsearn Co., Ltd., said that bringing Thai ghost dramas into a physical space allows audiences to experience the atmosphere first-hand and expands opportunities to reach new audience groups. Aphanuch Sangvaributra, Managing Director of Dida Video Production, added that Thai ghost dramas such as Pret Wat Suthat have a distinct visual identity, and this event helps younger generations discover past works while allowing long-time drama fans to revisit their memories, with past episodes available to watch on the Samsearn YouTube channel. Additionally, Pinyada Jungkanjana, BNK48 Shihainin or manager of BNK48, noted that this activity represents a new role for the artists in building closer connections with followers beyond stage performances.
This news is relevant for tourists and visitors looking for activities in Bangkok from late October to early November 2026. Furthermore, hotel staff in nearby areas can use the session schedule and redemption details to advise guests who wish to experience a Thai-style Halloween atmosphere. At the same time, event organisers can study the model of combining traditional folklore dramas with contemporary artists as a guideline for designing experiential events in the future.
