Mystery of JENGLOT

JENGLOT, mysterious creatures of Indonesia is a strange phenomenon began to spread in the community in 1997 year. JENGLOT is an object / creature (I am puzzled to determine whether the object or creature) is a small human form with a body no more than 12 cm and long hair, sparse and stiff through the legs, and with long nails.

JENGLOT believed to society is as a person who has the magic of science in the past (maybe a hermit so) who died, but was rejected by the earth, so that its body was not destroyed but shrinks to a shape like JENGLOT. Means believed that “JENGLOT it used to be a man” …

If examined from a scientific aspect, it is clear there can be no such phenomenon. The human body would decompose if buried in the ground. Even more strangely again, usually JENGLOT appear suddenly or at the time of the MASTER (shaman) to high-level mystical rituals.

Then according to the sacred, JENGLOT must be fed blood, one drop of blood each period. Uniquely, every time if JENGLOT is not given appropriate amount of blood there would be a misfortune that had befallen the people around.

Is this all just mystical, or can be explained scientifically?

JENGLOT – is a type of mysterious creature or vampire in Indonesian culture and mythology. It is described as looking much like a tiny, living human doll. It is usually depicted as a mythical creature, sometimes seen in cryptozoology, and occasionally purported to have actually been a human body. Its appearance also resembles the Medusa of Greek mythology.

JENGLOT is believed to be found in Indonesia, especially in Java. They are mostly found by native psychics after they have performed a supernatural ceremony. JENGLOTs are said to be found anywhere, from under the ground, on a wrecked house roof, and even in the trunk of a huge tree.

Feeding JENGLOT

JENGLOT ‘keepers’ feed their creature with blood, either animal blood (goat) or human blood. Those who feed the creature with human blood buy it legally from the Indonesian Red Cross. The JENGLOT is said to not drink the blood directly. The person places the JENGLOT near the blood, but the JENGLOT doesn’t even move or touch the blood. It is said that the JENGLOT will get the nutrients of the blood in their own way. Some say it comes alive and consumes the blood when it is alone.

Becoming a JENGLOT

According to an Indonesian legend, JENGLOT was an ascetic who wanted to learn the “Ilmu Bethara Karang” (Black Magic) or the way to eternal life. It also said to be a hermit whose worship demons and gain a certain power and ability. They say if a person with great supernatural power meditates in a certain cave, they’ll become JENGLOT.

Indonesian people believe JENGLOT is a human who have a magic power in the  past. When they died, their bodies rejected by earth, so their body wasn’t destroyed but rather shrink into shapes like JENGLOT.  in terms of scientific, obviously there cannot be a phenomenon like this.  the human body would decompose if buried in the ground.  but more strangely, JENGLOT usually appear suddenly or when the shaman  doing a mystical ritual in high level.  According to the shaman, JENGLOT shall eat blood, one drop of blood each  period. every time  if JENGLOT is not given blood droplets corresponding provisions  there would be a misfortune that befell locals. JENGLOT has been examined by Dr. Budi Sampurna in the forensic Cipto Mangunkusumo  hospital. That objects 10,65 cm who like as a creepy doll have  the same part  of the head, body, hands, feet and long hair along 30 cm. the size of each look  proportional. But their nails and canine is very long. canine sticking out almost  all head size, nails too long and tapered.  Nobody knows whether the blood was actually taken or not by JENGLOT.  Paramedic, medical students, doctors, forensic expert took part to research JENGLOT.  the result is JENGLOT become from primates family, and JENGLOT have similar  characteristics with human. but they can not say that JENGLOT is live,  because mortal needs lung, heart and other organs to live.  but the shaman believe, JENGLOT is still live, because they still have supernatural power…  until now, no one can answer with certainly what is JENGLOT, but increasingly  many JENGLOT found in Indonesia especially in java island. 10.65 cm long objects, like a creepy doll that has the same head, body, hands and feet and loose hair as long as 30 cm. The size of each was proportional only, the size of fingernails and long fangs. Fangs sticking out most of the size of the head, long nails too and pointed to it is not possible chilling the audience stood up. “Every 35 days on Friday, we give one drop of blood mixed with oil as if many people give offerings of flowers or incense,” said Hendra.

 No one knows whether the blood was actually taken or not by creatures that weigh 37.2 grams. According to Hendra, the body is still there JENGLOT life. Signs of life, he says, can be seen from the eyes that can move at any time and the hair and nails are long. Is JENGLOT and his friends were still alive or at least been alive? Hendra with the courage to “challenge” to the medical experts examined objectively.

RSCM forensic scientists  interested parties to examine the “humanitarian” JENGLOT. Of course,  not based on mysticism but medically based science. So on Thursday, September 25, 1997 afternoon, being taken to the RSCM JENGLOT to be medically examined. Forensic and living room RSCM roentgen visitors suddenly crowded. They consist of paramedics, medical students, journalists and a number of hospital visitors who are interested to see the arrival of JENGLOT placed in a carved wooden box. Forensic experts FKUI-RSCM, Budi Sampurna DSF said, JENGLOT examination with such a background that has been known to the wider community is an interesting challenge for the medical world to prove in terms of science. According to dr Budi, in order to prove JENGLOT humanity, it will be done by means of detection to determine roentgen bone structure and the basic ingredients of life tests such as C, H, O or protein.

For this purpose, forensic experts take samples of material suspected of being skin or meat and a piece of hair JENGLOT. Doing own sampling by Hendra that moment came to take their RSCM three incense sticks. “As a precaution, lest anyone catch her sawab (influence),” he said.

After the examination results were declared JENGLOT no bone structure. Results roentgen witnessed dozens of journalists, medics, student practice, it only shows the form of a buffer-like structure from head to body. Also visible is also a network of four nails and no teeth remaining. “There is a similar network of meat, but we are not sure whether it was meat or other ingredients,” said Muh Ilyas.

To get more detailed results, the JENGLOT investigated with a CT scan. Apparently JENGLOT does not have human-like structures although resemble human outer appearance. Now the Forensic FKUI-RSCM still examining samples of skin / flesh and hair to find out JENGLOT blood, its DNA. “It took about three weeks,” he said.

According to Hendra, JENGLOT is a supernatural (spirits). That is, life has not like living life. Because actual JENGLOT physically dead (mummies). “..However, in his death that he still has the power.” he said. Because of that, he lets those who have power in order to prove the existence of “energy” in it. 

“The energy contained in JENGLOT really great, until I bounced a few feet. In fact, I’ve got the ability to power in crumbling, but was not able to. Wow, really amazing, “said one visitor who did not want to be named, after trying out the energy stored in the display at JENGLOT Exhibition Room Queen Pasarraya Jalan Pemuda Semarang.

Indeed, many visitors are less confident JENGLOT has supernatural energy. However, for visitors who have knowledge or power in a supernatural power, a new mini mummy believe they have great energy. As to be able to throw the visitors who tried it.

From the article above can be concluded that after investigation it has characteristics such as JENGLOT animal / living things (I did not mention humans) and has a great energy. Although we (I) do not believe this, but we cannot deny that this is a strange phenomenon ‘Real and It’.
