Was Natre capable of killing?

Having seen so many J-Horror and K-Horror movies, I have gotten very used to the violent vengeful ghosts, who will do physical harm to victims and kill them at any chance.

I don't know enough about Thai culture when it comes to ghosts, but it seemed like the writers of the movie didn't want to reveal whether or not Natre could actually kill anyone by herself.

What are your theories?
For example in the scene where Tun is chased by Natre down the ladder. What if he had simply let her catch him. Then what?

I wondered that myself while watching it. I like that it was left open to interpretation, though one has to wonder how she made the others kill themselves...

Sayonara, not to be confused with cyanide, which is, of course, goodbye in any language.

I believe she haunted the rapists until they commited suicide since they couldn't find a way to get rid of her. I can't really figure out her motive for Tun, maybe she's happy being with him, but fully content still if he commits suicide as well.

But I don't think she can physically kill them, only terrorize her victims.

Why am I Mr. Pink?

They obviously didn't react very well to knowing an invisible supernatural entity was sitting on them.
