How it begins
The most common belief is that the Pontianak is usually the ghost
of a woman who died during childbirth.
Another belief is that she was abused by a male individual.
But it's not like when a woman did died at childbirth or being
abuse will make her return from the grave.
Further on,supposedly she will only return as a Pontianak
if she has the need to see her child or seeking vengeance upon
those who has abused her.
