For our non Malay readers, here are some of the different category of ghosts. If you happened to see one at night, what the hell......just run, dont look back. Just hope that it doesnt follow you home.
Pontianak - Female vampire that wears white and always cries, laughs in the middle of the night. Can fly, can leap tall buildings in a single bounce, cannot stop a speeding train. This is a highly dangerous ghost. Eg below

Gundorowo - Male version of pontianak. Same level of dangerousness
Hantu Tetek - Ghost with big boobs. They like to appear during sunset and will kidnap little kids. So dont let your kids play during this time of the day.
Toyol - A bald ghost, the size of a toddler who likes to steal money and valuables. It has a human keeper. Please dont mistaken this ghost for a lost kid and start playing marbles with him.
Hantu Raya and Pelesit - This ghost also has a human keeper. Will be instructed by his human keeper to do bad things on other humans..
Pocong - The jumping ghost as it is called, can leap tall buildings or trees in a single bounce. This ghost is usually covered in white cloth the way a dead person is covered in white cloth. Eg below

There are many more, but I roughly covered the popular ones. Some of you might have seen one of these or perhaps every one of them.
