Dear all Asean Hive Community members. This time I would like to talk about horror figures in Indonesia. Every country has different ghost stories. In Indonesia, there are some ghost figures that make people run away when they see one of them.
I have not seen those figures with my own eyes, but I have seen them in movies or videos. Some people may not believe in ghosts, but ghost stories are always interesting when you hang out at night with your friends. Some horror movie producers also make good money from creating horror movies.
- Pocong
The dead body is covered in white fabric, tied over the head, under the feet, and around the neck.
Muslim tradition burried the dead body with kaffan. Pocong is a ghost figure of a dead body in kaffan.
There are too many stories about pocong in Indonesia. I think this is the most popular ghost figure in Indonesia.

- Kuntilanak
Kuntilanak is a ghost, a female ghost figure dressed in white.The presence of this figure is preceded by the woman's shrill voice. Kuntilanak is the story of a dead woman who is pregnant. Her baby died tragically with her.

This is also a very popular ghost figure in Indonesia. Gendruwo is a big figure with some fur on his body. The eyes are red. He resembled a King Kong figure.

Some believe that people can take care of gendruwo to look after houses from criminals. - Sundel bolong
Sundel means prostitute, and bolong means "a hole." Sundel Bolong comes from a story of a girl who was raped and died because she was trapped in a prostitution business. The figure usually appears as a beautiful girl, but in the end, she shows the hole in her back.
There were some movies that told stories about Sundel Bolong. - Wewe Gombel
It is a female figure who likes to kidnap kids. It often appears in the sunset. In Indonesia, children are not allowed to play outside during and after sunset.

Similar to our Malaysia version of Pontianak 🥺🥺🥺 scary shit wei
I think it is the same , pontianak and kuntilanak
lucky you're not sharing about your own experience. If not it would be more scary than it look.
most of the mountaineers, usually often meet that such creatures. But me personally, haven't seen it yet.
Yeah, I heard some stories of mountaineers who often meet strage figures. In Lawu, Bromo, and Salak mountains in Indonesia, there are some climbers who lost and a few of them found dead.
The stories become big chats in hanging out at night with friends when I was teen.
I really like horror stories and movies. I do not know what will happen if I actually experience it😀
I do not want to have experience those horror figures. Most people are affraid of ghosts but like talking about them ...😇
Seems quite similar to the ghost imagery used in a lot of Thai cultural stories. I enjoy hearing about these things.
Thanks, I also watched a few Thai horror movies. yes, the imagery look like similar.
Sundel Bolong was the scariest ghost during my childhood 😨😨😨
I was affraid of wewe gombel ..she likes to kidnap kids
eh i have a real story abt that, my friend's kidnapped by wewe gombel, a week before eid. But found on the night of Eid on the roof of his house.
Think you'd better write the story .. loL to scare us ...
Fyi There's so many creature that has been clasified. example, for kuntilanak, atleast 5 to 10 types of it. one of the scariest is queen of kuntilanak. The most evil & scariest of kuntilanak species.
HAHA .. I have never heard about the queen of kuntilanak .. I think it is the scariest one.
