This paper proposes to study quasi-normal modes due to massive scalar fields. We, in particular, investigate the dependence of quasi-normal mode (QNM) frequencies on the field mass. From this research, we find that there are quasi-normal modes with arbitrarily long life when the field mass has specific values. It is also found that QNM may disappear when the field mass exceeds these values.
