Amanlanhigs are said to chase any living person they found and once they reach them, they would tickle the victim until they die, both of laughter and terror. [/qoute]

i understood that the Navy SEALs brought in a few 30+ foot South American anacondas and sent them down VC tunnel system to scare the CR*P out of the VC so they would be scared of using their own tunnels.
US engineers spent weeks recording eerie sounds and altered voices, which acted in roles of slain VC soldiers. The United States of America also brought in South Vietnamese soldiers to record their audio sayings over the tape for further authenticity. The tape, dubbed 'Ghost Tape Number Ten', was played on loudspeakers in areas of VC activity, generally at night.Helicopters were also deployed at times to broadcast recordings in which the pre-recorded voices called on their "descendants" in the VC to defect and cease fighting. The United States would also use patrol boats going up and down the river playing the ghost tape. The United States would also deploy special infantry to infiltrate enemy lines and play the recording too. Most of these types of operations did take place at night.

Pretty sure I read before about the Americans using speakers in Vietnam which would play loud noises to scare the VC into thinking it was some local monster they had stories about.
Just searched up about it and found an article from Wikipedia. It was ‘ Operation Wandering Soul’
