Grandmothers telling the stories to the grand children or mothers and fathers telling the bedtime stories to their kids are typical ways. These stories often have a meaningful message for the audience. Sometimes it is a message to remind people of a mannerism, of social values and or even stories about a certain history or tradition in a specific culture. The unique medium that they are using to tell and preserve the stories is a great tool that also represents their culture. But the stories themselves may die, as when storyteller passes on. If the generation that continues the work doesn t embrace the stories as part of their life, then the soul of the story craft itself may disappear. The research aimed to preserve Malaysian folklore stories in a digital form for the future of cultural heritage. Some of the unique stories were selected from two different Malaysian cultures then an artist illustrated the stories through his visual interpretation. C2 - Proc. Int. Conf. Virtual Syst.
