POCONG ON THE STAIRS

This experience happened while I was staying at my friend's boarding house around the cugak kawung road. A road located around the cikutra road, my friend's boarding house consists of 2 levels and his room is located on the 2nd floor. That night I planned not to sleep, because of the many tasks that must be collected in the next few days. In order to complete my task, I borrowed the boarding house of my friend who was returning to Jakarta.

I arrived at his boarding house at about 6pm and that night I started doing my job. At about 10 p.m., my stomach was hungry. I decided to stop for a moment and buy fried rice in front of my friend's boarding house. After eating dinner, I returned to the room to start again doing my duties, around 11 pm the atmosphere of this boarding house began to seclude.

One by one the doors of the rooms began to close and they started to sleep, about half an hour after that I felt like urinating. Without waiting for a long time I immediately moved from my seat and walked towards the bathroom located on the lower floor. Not too long ago I was in the bathroom, smelling a fragrant smell. Over time, the smell was like strengthening and suddenly the bathroom door was like being knocked.

“Sepentar”, I said half yelling “tok... tok..... tok” out of annoyance, I immediately stood up and opened the door while shouting “what the heck ga sab...” hah! there's no one. Half annoyed, I immediately walked back through the stairs leading to the top floor. When I got up on the ground, I could not believe what I saw in front of me. I saw a figure.

I walked back slowly and the figure in front of me looked like po. pocong. The large body in front of me was wrapped in white cloth, shrouded and bound in white cloth on the head and legs. The frightened me immediately ran towards the security guard post. I immediately told him what I had just experienced, the security guard looked astonished, he tried to calm me down and said that here no one had ever experienced anything like that. Like what I just experienced earlier, the security guard said he intended to take me back to the room.

During the trip back up, I just kept quiet while continuing to look left and frown afraid that I saw the figure of the pocong again. The security guard kept asking me “where did I see the pocong?”. I just pointed at the place I was when I saw the figure of the pocong earlier, and the security guard responded but from his tone he seemed to not believe me and impressed like underestimating and wanted to call me a coward.

Arriving in andro's room, I thanked him and he went back down to the post. Shortly after the security guard left, I immediately busied myself with this drawing task even though it was actually lazy and still afraid because the figure was still attached to my memory. The pocong's broken and flaking face like burning was still unthinkable, as I had started to forget about it and started to be concerned with my duties, the sound of knocking from the window sounded very loud.

I changed my position to face the padlock, I did not want to see the figure of the pocong again and when I changed my position suddenly I felt.. like kicking something on my left. “what is”, I felt, as soon as I pull back my weird feet now. I felt something on this bed. Right next to me, I initially thought there was something coming up on the bed when I jumped earlier. But, I am also sure, that the one touched by me was not an object. I tried to dare to turn my body back to its original position but now I feel something is pressing my body towards the wall.

I was getting scared, but the fear I was trying to fight and I was getting curious. I slowly opened the blanket that covered my head and I immediately turned my body.Oh my God!!! there was a body wrapped in white cloth, already beside me. I couldn't move, the body wrapped in white cloth was squeezing me against the padlock. All I could give was my head, slowly the body began to move. now.

This time I was able to return the pocong's face very clearly, his face was broken, black and very scary. I could not move, not even my body could I give. My body was facing right and my left neck was now unable to give me at all. I really felt a very deep neck pain, out of fear I started screaming out loud please...please…!uhh. please.

My shout grew louder and louder, suddenly the lights were on instantly and I heard the sound of the security guard half-crying what was happening. Immediately I felt that there was no body pressing on me earlier, I felt my body now starting to move as it was. I who was frightened, gasped to tell what I just experienced to the security guard. But this time the security guard was not alone, there was a father next to him whom he had introduced to me. As one of the guards of this room as well. The security guard told him what I had just experienced, the father was silent. His face was seriously looking at me who was sitting on the bed.

I still kept my breath in, before long the father then spoke. He said that indeed in this post often seen the figure of the pocong. But it was a long time ago, but he also said that he did not know what and how the origin of the pocong. I was still frightened just sitting in silence, I was thinking of cleaning up all my stuff and getting out of this boarding house. I asked the security guard to wait while I cleaned up my things and asked him to drive me down to get the car.

After I finished cleaning up I followed the security guard down, but not until we got down on the stairs. The security guard fell silent, and stopped suddenly. “pak, why sir?, why stop pak”, “engga de, I just saw the sighting of a pocong ghost located opposite”.
