• Comment: what nonsense! " Prakrit was believed to have summoned a spirit linked to a white wax container of this oil, attracting negative energies." Theroadislong (talk) 11:25, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Nam Man Prai (Thai:น้ำมันพราย, Thai pronunciation: [nam˦˥.man˧.pʰraːj˧], Phonemic: n ạ ˆ m – m ạ n – b ̥ r ā y) is a type of magical oil created using Necromancy in Southeast Asian culture. There exists multiple types of Nam Man Prai, the difference being their creation process and usage. Some are created from dead plants, some are extracted from the dead.^[1]

The origin can be traced back to ancient times as it is deeply rooted in Thai culture. For decades, even centuries ago, the belief in the power that spirits can influence lives have been rooted in their custom. From Thai folklore to legends and myths that have been passed through people from generation to generation. It was said that the essence of the deceased, known as Prai, can be collected to bring in good fortune and grant protection from danger to the owner.
