Well in Indonesia people like to listen to such story, similar like how many people who like horror movie. There is segment in our society who like to hear some thing like that, and it is why there are people benefiting from such thing and then start to make Youtube channel which focuses on such story.
Here is this women and her team (one of them is her husband) who visited many haunted places in Indonesia. Just several days ago she posted the video and she already got around 2.5 million viewer.
The belief is inline with Islamic belief that there is Jinns living in the earth. I was the guy who like to watch horror and several years ago there were radio who have such program and they always bring people who have deep knowledge about it, some of them are actually doing sirk and it is why IMO the radio stopped doing such program anymore. They tried to bring Jinns to the listener homes. Actually I used to hear someone knocking my room wall at night although I believe no one did that. But I am not afraid. According to the expert on the radio, there is one specialized Jinn who like to knock on the wall.
My oldest brother wife also used to get possessed by Jinns in her early married with my brother. One way to get rid it is to convince her that Allah is the strongest and believers should not be afraid of such thing. After I am able to convince her, she doesnt experience such thing anymore until now.
