Description

A creature of Malay beliefs. It belongs to a type of ethereal beings, perhaps from the group of djinn/devils, who like to bother people. It is said that the ghost takes the form of an old woman who likes to hide small children who like to play near the house in the evening and at night, hiding them under her breasts.

Javanese believe that these ghosts often disguise themselves as beautiful women with large breasts to attract the attention of boys.

It is believed that to get rid of it, you need to pinch the ghost's chest or throw sand after reading al-Kursi's verse.
