Theylike to disturb humans, especially men. On the other hand, they are usually jealous of women since their face is not as beautiful as it was when they were still alive.

2. They are a bunch of drama queens

Most kuntilanak are drama queens and may have aborderline personality disorder! Sometimes they giggle happily because they feel like they are the most beautiful creature in the other-world, but theycan suddenly weep just because they suddenlyregret things they did when theywere alive. Kuntilanaktend to want to take revenge to those who are responsible for their deaths.

3. They might be on your back seat..

Kuntilanak like to hang out...... on a tree while waiting for a human to disturb. Sometimes they also like to take a ride inside a car or on a motorbikes back seat. So, be careful when you are going home later, look at your rearview mirror, who knows someone might have joined you on the back seat. Or if you are driving alone and suddenly you feel heavy on the back seat, it is usually a sign for a kuntilanak to take a freeride.

4. Not all of them died during pregnancy or delivering a baby

According to the myth, the name kunti means pregnant and anak means kid. So, kuntilanak means a female ghost who died while pregnant or delivering a baby. But those I met did not always die because of that. For example: Suti. She ended her life by hanged on herself. Or maybe because they look similar, that is why all ghost with long hair are called kuntilanak.

5. They're most famous one!

Kuntilanak is the most popularghost! It's like they're the other worlds Miss Universe(s).
