Inhaltsangabe

In the dark woods and otherworldly areas of Slavic land, strange animals guard the land from intruders, evil spirits hide in barns and bathhouses, and old spirits live in every house. This detailed guide shows you the otherworldly creatures that have fascinated Slavs for thousands of years. These include the woodland guardians who lead travelers into endless woods and the protective home spirits who reward respect but cause chaos when angry. Find out about the nightmare demons that squeeze people while they sleep, the water ghosts that drown people who don't see them coming, and the scary vampire variations that rise from their graves. Learn how spirits of the field and harvest control the fate of farming, how beautiful but deadly river maidens lure men to their deaths, and how one-eyed representations of disaster affect whole families in tragic ways. As you travel from peasant cottages to deep forests, from holy groves to haunted crossroads, you will learn about the demons, nature spirits, and undead that live in Russian, Polish, Ukrainian, and other Slavic cultures. If you're interested in the rich supernatural history of Eastern European cultures, like mythology fans and folklore students, you should read this.
