00:00White lid, white lid, ing melange wenggi, ing wetan, ing kulon, ing ngalor, ing kidul, kumpulo ing adepanku, ing dino iki, ing wenggi iki, sedulur papat, kalimah pancerku, will welcome my teko, ngadepo, ngadepo, ngadepo.
00:24O pocongs who are jumping in the middle of the night, from the east, from the west, from the north, from the south, gather in front of me, today, tonight, four magical brothers and my body will welcome you, face, face, face.
00:43The sky above Karangjati village that night seemed to be burning with embers that were slowly extinguishing.
00:49Black clouds rolled in without stars, and the night wind blew with the scent of wet earth mixed with frangipani flowers.
00:57It's quiet, too quiet, as if time itself refuses to turn around.
01:02In an old house on the edge of the village, a young man named Galang sits transfixed in front of a dimly lit cellphone screen.
01:10He had just received a message from an unknown number, the message contained an old manuscript filled with Javanese script, and underneath it, there was a translation in Indonesian.
01:22Galang stared at him for a long time, feeling strange, but also challenged.
01:27In his head, sentence after sentence of the kalam began to emerge, whether intentionally or not, his lips also murmured.
01:35White cap, white cap, throwing it in the middle of the hewengi.
01:40The wind suddenly stopped, the chandelier above it shook lightly, then went out instantly.
01:46The electricity went out, leaving only the sound of Galang's heartbeat pounding in his chest.
01:52From a distance, a voice was heard.
01:55Soft, jumping, thump, thump, thump.
02:00Galang got up, his eyes sweeping the room.
02:03Panicked and alert, his breathing began to become irregular.
02:06The sound was getting closer, not footsteps, but a crashing sound.
02:11Like a wrapped body jumping, heading towards his house.
02:15Thud, thud, thud.
02:17Then, the sound stopped.
02:20Outside the house, right in front of the door, Galang swallowed.
02:24His hands shook as he reached for the flashlight from the table.
02:27He turned it on.
02:28The light was dim, shaking the walls and shadows.
02:31Three loud knocks sounded.
02:34Knock, knock, knock.
02:36Galang froze.
02:37Cold sweat poured down his temples.
02:40Who?
02:41Who's outside?
02:43Her voice was shaking.
02:45No answer.
02:46Just silence.
02:47The silence that bites.
02:49But in the midst of the silence, there was a soft whisper.
02:52Not from the outside, but from behind.
02:55From inside his own house.
02:57White cover.
02:58Throwing around in the middle of the night.
03:00Galang turned around quickly.
03:03And there, stood a figure.
03:06His body was wrapped in a dirty and bloody white shroud.
03:10Her eyes.
03:11A dark hole that is opening up.
03:13Her mouth smiled.
03:14Wide tear from cheek to cheek.
03:16And the pale lips murmured along.
03:19Staying put.
03:20Staying put.
03:21Staying put.
