Kuntilanak was notoriously known as a scary entity seen as a floating woman with plain white long gown and long black hair. Their "hobby" is primarily scaring night walkers with their freakishly long shrieking laughter before appearing and chase these poor people running while peeing their pants off. Their queen can be summoned over a pool of water/pond with offerings such as coconuts, 7 types of flower, egg, and incense. Queen Kunti when summoned reported to be seen visibly by layman as an extremely beautiful woman and smiles with a vampire like long fang. Queen Kuntilanak usually summoned by people requesting lottery numbersLeakThe leak spirit enabled people to turn into fireballs, animals or strange creatures with fangs, a protruding tongue and dangling breasts.
