    The pocong form has a burnt face with fiery red eyes. Another version states, the pocong is "flat" and has hollow or cotton-covered eyeholes with a pale white face. Those who believe in the existence of this ghost think that pocong is a form of "protest" from the forgotten dead before his grave is closed. Although in movies pocongs are often depicted moving up and down, the myth about pocongs instead states pocongs move around.
