Malaysian traditional arts like Mak Yong, kuda kepang, and wayang kulit are steeped in mystery and superstition. Superdough, a local entertainment company, capitalises on Malaysians’ curiosity about these ancient practices.

Late last year, it launched its second Hauntu outlet at The Curve, Mutiara Damansara in Petaling Jaya, tapping into the fascination with haunted experiences.
