'Jenglot' to be monitored 24/7

[UM-Bot]

Will it move or won’t it? This is what paranormal investigation group Seekers are determined to establish after bringing the now-famous ‘jenglot’ back to their Ampang headquarters for observation last Friday. Seekers head Syed Abdullah Al-Attas said the three creatures have been placed in a room and will be filmed around the clock until Sept 28.

The team hopes to see some movement by the creatures to prove that they are alive.“The slightest move is enough for us,” said Syed Abdullah.

This sounds like nothing more then a publisity stunt, and i think what they fear the most is that this will be be found to be a fake and a hoax. It will damage what little credibility they do have. Very silly indeed.

[:PsYKoTiC:BeHAvIoR:]

Wow! Those Jenglots are some ugly critters. They're like leeches from Hell or something! Come to think of it, they look like props from the movie series "Tremors" or "Aliens".

Is this article saying that these Jenglots are manmade, they supposingly have one of these, and yet it is a myth? Sounds like they don't know what to make of it.

Well that makes two of us. What a crazy story. I'm looking forwayd to the 28th to hear of what the results were. Hopefully it won't be a disappointing "hoax" ending.

Ugh!! Running for the hills I'd be. That guy is nuts to being that close to them.

[Tool Texas]

Even the name sounds fake. If it was some type of vampire like creature i dont think that guy would be THAT close to them. I think its all a bunch of BS.

Just a bunch of people with lots of time in their hands and apparently craves media attention.

Malaysia has a lot of weird stories. Seems like a new story every week or so.

Hey, I'm going to buy some creepy taxidermist's nightmare from some disreputable outlet and sit around waiting for it to move. Who's with me?

Hmmm no it looks more like Mr. Hankey and his family, pity the poor fool who has to enter the room first.

What's a jenglot?

a type of mysterious creature or vampire in Indonesian culture and mythology. It is described as looking much like a tiny, living human doll...

A Jenglot: a creature of Indonesian mythology.

Nowadays carved out of wood, dressed in animal skin and hair to earn a buck or two from gullible Europeans, Australians and Americans.

New Age people are there prime target; these people will just believe anything that fits into their daydreams.

If I were an Indonesian guy with not much income, you bet I would do the same.
