Bukit Shahbandar Forest Recreation Park covers 234 hectares of coastal kerangas forest and steep ridge trails in Jerudong. Highly popular among runners and families by day, the forest takes on a eerie aura at dusk. Local legend tells of disorienting forest spirits ('sesat hantu'), phantom female guides who lead solitary hikers off marked ridge trails, and strange weeping sounds heard in deep gullies along the 9-hill challenge circuit.
Bukit Tempayan Pisang is a prominent, forested hill in Serasa near Muara known for its steep trails, subterranean cave formations, and deeply rooted supernatural folklore. Local folklore connects the hill to Orangan Bunian (invisible spirit dwellers), WWII military activity, and disembodied voices echoing from deep inside Gua Tempayan Pisang. Hikers and locals report unsettling disorientation, phantom figures among the trees, and unnatural silence descending upon the forest canopy.
Wasai Teraja is a secluded jungle waterfall situated deep in the pristine primary rainforest of Labi, near the border of Belait District and Sarawak. Reached via a trek past Teraja Iban Longhouse, the waterfall and its surrounding primary forest have been inhabited for centuries by the indigenous Iban people. Famed for its historical association with ancient warrior headhunting territories, sacred forest taboos ('mali'), disembodied calls deep in the canopy, and phantom Iban warriors guarding the waterfall basin.
