Hey YouTube, Jim here! Welcome to Top10Archive! We’ve had so many requests for an Archive covering Malay folklore that we just had to see what all the fuss was about. While the southeast Asian Malays passed down incredible fables, epics, and bardic tales across generations, it was the more nefarious or fantastical stories we couldn’t help but latch onto. The following ten creatures, demons, and ghosts stalked Malay mythology and, if we’re any good at our jobs, the worst of them should soon be haunting your dreams.

  1. What other creatures do you know from Malaysian Mythology? Which topics of mythology should we cover next!?

  2. I’ve been subbed to you for a while, and I must say the quality of your videos are only getting better! I used to comment a few suggestions in your earlier vids and you replied to some. Just shows that you listen to your audience! Love your work! Especially this one, since I am a Malaysian myself. Don’t worry about the comments about your pronunciation, Malay is a weird language even to the people who speak it!

    • Thanks for being such a loyal subscriber! And yep, we still read every comment 😀 It’s kind of funny to look back at our older videos actually!
