It's spooky month time!

-Pocong, Shrouded Ghost-

An Indonesian and Malaysian ghost said to be the soul of a deceased person trapped inside their traditional kain kafan burial shroud. It's said that after death, the souls of the dead stay on earth for 40 days before passing to the afterlife, and if the body is not released from the ties of its shroud after that, it may turn into a Pocong and haunt the living. Several types of Pocong exist, born from different circumstances and with some different natures, but in general are ill-intended and are said to inflict diseases and curses. When portrayed in live-action movies, the actors inside the shroud are unable to walk properly and have to hop around instead, creating the image of a jumping ghost that was ingrained in popular culture to this day. Nevertheless, real Pocong are said to be able to hover or teleport at will.

Something simple I've been wanting to do for a while. Since there's very little I can actually add to the design without it not looking like a Pocong anymore, I tried to emphasize the shapes and make the face as cartoonishly horrifying as I could.
Red-faced Pocongs are actually a thing and are said to be the strongest of them all, buuuuut... I just made it red because it looked nicer tbh.

Well, hope you all liked it, and until next time!
