They been described as
having incredibly long nails, hands extending down to her feet, and wearing
green robes. She preys on humans, preferring the blood of newborn male
children, but also consuming newborn female children
The original Langsuir is
supposed to be a kind of night-owl) is described as being a woman of dazzling
beauty, who died from the shock of hearing that her child was stillborn, and had taken the shape of the Pontianak. On hearing this
terrible news, she "clapped her hands", and without further warning
"flew whinnying away to a tree, upon which she perched". She may be
known by her robe of green, by her tapering nails of extraordinary length (a
mark of beauty), and by the long jet black tresses which she allows to fall
down to her ankles—only, alas! (for the truth must be told) in order to conceal
the hole in the back of her neck through which she sucks the blood of children!
These vampire-like proclivities of hers may, however, be successfully combated if the right means are adopted, for if you are able to catch her, cut short her nails and luxuriant tresses, and stuff them into the hole in her neck, she will become tame and indistinguishable from an ordinary woman, remaining so for years.

In 2013, villagers in the Pasir Puteh district in Kelantan, Malaysia, reported sightings of a langsuyar
that was terrorizing the town. The residents described seeing a long-haired banshee flying and
cackling in the night, and claims of sightings spread to nearby villages. Local
authorities urged the villages to remain calm and pray together to repel the
spirit. Rumors of the demonic appearances ended after a local shaman claimed to have captured four of the creatures.
