Lore
Orang Minyak, the oily man, is a terrifying urban legend in Malaysian folklore, a naked demon coated in black oil that makes him impossibly slippery and difficult to catch, using his supernatural strength to assault women at night. Some tales describe him as a cursed human who turned to black magic, while others portray him as a supernatural entity. The creature preys under cover of darkness, embodying fears of vulnerability and the unknown, and has become a staple of modern Malaysian horror stories and moral warnings.
