Sundel Bolong is an old, Indonesian urban legend, a ghost which appears in the form a beautiful woman with long back hair and a white gown, similar to the appearance of other Asian ghosts made recognisable from the influx of J-horror to the western world, and indeed everywhere else, by movies like Ju-on and Ringu.
Sundel Bolong, however, is different, with a gaping hole in her back exposing her rotting entrails and spine, the wound itself disguised and hidden behind her long black hair.
Legend has it, that Sundel Bolong is the ghost of girl who died following her rape and gave birth in the grave. Her ghost is said to haunt and kidnap newborn babies. She also appears to frighten people, disguised as a beautiful woman only to show her true form later.
The illustration of this T-shirt is taken from a famous story, which was also a scene in a local Indonesian classic horror film simply titled “Sundel Bolong” staring the local horror queen herself, Suzzanna, in 1982. Check it on IMDB.
In the scene she appears and acts like a human being, ordering a traditional meal of Satay, 200 to be precise, and a pan of boiling hot soup. The food sellers watch in disbelief before running off in fear as she eats the inhuman amount of Satay and drinks the boiling soup as it falls through the gaping wound in her back and spills onto the ground beneath her.

Leáks or Leyaks are humans who are practicing black magic and have cannibalistic behavior.
In folklore of Bali, Indonesia, the Leyak (in Indonesian, people called it 'Leák' (le-ak)—the Y is not written or spoken) is a mythological figure in the form of flying head with entrails (heart, lung, liver, etc) still attached. Leyak is said to fly trying to find a pregnant woman in order to suck her baby's blood or a newborn child. Leyak also said to haunt graveyards, feed on corpses, have power to change themselves into animals, such as pigs, and fly. In normal Leyak form, they are said to have an unusually long tongue and large fangs. In daylight they appear as an ordinary human, but at night their head and entrails break loose from their body and fly.
This infamous urban legend has been brought into a classic horror b-movie in 1981 titled “Leák” or “Mistik” (Indonesian title) aka Balinese Mystic (Australia) aka Mystics in Bali (USA). Check it on IMDB.
