0:00.0	In the remote villages of Indonesia, when a woman gives birth, the family doesn't just prepare for celebration.
0:07.8	They prepare for war. They hang thorny branches around the house, burn protective incense, and station guards at every window.
0:19.4	Because in the darkness of night, something ancient and hungry
0:23.9	is listening for the cries of a newborn child.
0:28.2	The locals call it Pulasic, a creature born not of death, but of corruption, a woman
0:35.8	whose head detaches from her body in the dead of night, trailing
0:40.0	organs and entrails, as it floats through the darkness, seeking the most precious of
0:45.9	meals, the life force of new mothers and their babies.
0:50.3	But here's what makes the Pulasic truly terrifying. It's not some random monster that strikes

1:50.5	This isn't just another vampire legend, it's a story of hereditary evil, maternal corruption,
1:57.9	and the dark magic that turns the sacred act of childbirth into a hunting ground
2:03.1	for the damned. So prepare yourself for a journey into the shadowy world of Indonesian black
2:09.9	magic, where the line between protector and predator can be as thin as the veil between
