These days I'm having a hard time to sleep at night.
And of all the reasons, it is because of banana tree.
Yes. Banana tree.
Feeling weird?
Well if you ever heard of Malay people's myths, there is one about 'pontianak(a kind of ghost) living under the banana trees'.
From what I heard these ghosts living under the tree tend to search for virgins and suck their blood or whatsoever in order to maintain their beauty.
And there are banana trees planted behind my house which face me through the window in my room.
And I am scared.
Now you know why I can't sleep.
Maybe because I was raised in a Malay family since I was born until the time I went to kindergarten. So maybe I have some influence on this. o.o
Although there's nothing happen during my bedtime I find myself trembling almost every night and hard to close my eyes.
Please...can anyone help me?

i never heard about that..i thought pontianak live not under but stay on the tree itself and they will watch whoever she want to tumpang...
Maybe your problem will be solve when you cut the banana tree.. if you have one, but if have more than one...i suggest you buy nails and paku them at the neck.. :-)
that's scary hope you can overcome that someday Godbless, always pray

Cheh, this one is not true lah.
Pontianak, I've yet to see one (I don't believe they exist). But ghost/spirits, yes I've seen before.
FYI, spirits/ghost don't simply go around and kacau people one.
