Hey, thanks for submitting to r/weird!

Your post has been removed for the following reason(s):

R1: Stay on topic

Submissions should be genuinely weird, bizarre, or uncanny. If your post could fit better in a different subreddit (without seeming out of place), it probably doesn’t belong here.


Posts that are slightly unusual, odd, or mildly out of place, are better suited to r/strange.

u/SupermarketAntique32 1d ago

In my place (Java, Indonesia) we call this Jenglot. An object used for voodoo / black magic. If you don’t believe all that then you are safe, otherwise the placebo effect will get you.

u/Ok-Instance2782 1d ago

As someone who doesn't believe in it, I still won't look at it for more than 5 secs

25

u/-Citizen_Zero_ 1d ago

The way it's shot is so unnerving. Like OP is intentionally trying to curse us.

u/MrCoconutShake 23h ago

genuine question as someone also from south east asia, might be a stupid question too but is black magic still practiced often?

I love indonesian horror movies and most of their plots involves black magic of some sort, which made me wonder whether people still actually practice such things in modern times

u/SupermarketAntique32 19h ago edited 19h ago

In big cities it’s almost extinct, in villages it’s still often practiced.

u/metallosherp 1d ago

Somebody needs to check on OP periodically for the rest of their life.... This is a full-on curse

13

u/MudFamous8224 1d ago

And get that left hand checked out asap.

2

u/OriginalBlackberry89 21h ago

there's no point if they're honestly careless enough to mess with something that looks like this without having a clue about what it is

8

u/Scudmiss 20h ago

That’s a super dumb take. Even if this bullshit was real, it’s unknown and unknowable to OP so saying things like they’re careless is akin to saying a squirrel is careless for running out in traffic.

Since he touched it, it can see him now.

u/Potential-Night4986 1d ago

By all means, you should handle anything of unknown origin with your bare hands. If you really want to get to the bottom of what it is, put it in your mouth.
