"Indonesia reports that many people are disappearing in the jungle, apparently due to a very unusual form of abduction that takes place if they wear certain colors. Some are returned, but generally with no memory of what happened to them.
Three years ago I went to a small village in the district of Sandu Batu in South Sulawesi. I was told not to bring any clothing with yellow in it or any other bright colors to wear in the jungle. Only Black or White. Black was the most preferred. I had to ask why. They said that people who wear these bright colors will disappear. The villagers verified that people do indeed disappear but this village would not say why.
A group of us walked into the jungle to view illegal logging. One man didn't listen or understand the warning and wore yellow socks. We did our tour and returned. He was strangely quiet. That night he became extremely ill. We nursed him and about a day later he returned to his healthy self. Then he told us what happened.
He said something had bitten him on his right legs calf and then his thigh. He showed us the marks. They were huge scratches. He said he could not see what was attacking him. He said he did not want to tell us what happened because he was embarrassed. The villagers stood around us with these knowing looks while we looked at the marks. I was told that many people have disappeared in the mountains because of the Jin. They wear only black because they believe this allows them to travel through the jungle undetectable by whatever it is that takes these people. There is something terrible and evil taking these people. The people of Sulawesi have come to terms with it and have tried to adapt themselves to deal with whatever it is.

We found a young man who survived an episode in the jungle when four of his group went missing and were never found. He said the people or creatures who do this have a small nose and their eyes are small and black, but their mouths are very broad and when they smile it is very large compared to the rest of their face. He could not remember the color of their skin. I asked for a picture to be drawn. He managed a crude happy face with a nose consisting of a single line and a huge grimace. The boy was the only one who could see them out of the five.He kept seeing a lot of them but when he would try to show the others one of the four who disappeared could see them.
He also saw a strange animal he could not recognize. These animals are the size of a horse with huge antlers. He said he saw herds of them. He could not understand where they came from or why there were so many. They not an animal indigenous to the area. There is no such known animal that big in Sulawesi." Read the full article here.
