About the White lady phenomenon, why is there no mentioning of the pontianak, a famous woman in white in malaysia and indonesia. of course, the clothes of this vampiric creature would be covered in blood, but she could be considered a LIW, right?

[edit] Needs major expansion
Currently, this article is simply a list of White Lady legends found in various countries. A list would be a perfectly legitimate section of this article, but shouldn't constitute the entire thing. In addition, the list should either be much more comprehensive (for example, I know there are many more White Lady legends in the United States--it's a big country) or far more focused on examples which illustrate specific variations.
Sections to be added could include one on common characteristics, one on thematic similarities, and perhaps one on instances of the White Lady in popular culture (the Portugese video would go in that section, since it's not a real legend). Surely there is some kind folklorist out there who will flesh out this article. :) IrisWings 07:23, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] POV tag
This article makes it sound like ghosts are real and the stories are verified. Needs POV-cleanup. Fred26 (talk) 21:06, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
