A toyol or tuyul is an undead infant that appears in folklore in Southeast Asian countries and especially in #Malaysian #mythology. It is considered a helper by local shamans who are also known as dukun or bomoh who practice black magic. The primary use of the #demon is to steal from the rich like the Babi Ngepet from Indonesian mythology. In villages, people keep these creatures for various reasons, such as to steal or sabotage. With special rituals, toyol can be made to be powerful and lethal. Usually, it is kept in a jar in a dark place until needed or buried. Once the use of the spirit does not exist is is either buried deep or disposed at sea. The curse of an improperly disposed toyol can stay with a family for generations.
