Let's make it better
Unsolved and or infamous crimes and murders
>According to tradition, the tomte / nisse lives in the houses and barns of the farmstead, and secretly act as their guardian. If treated well, they protect the family and animals from evil and misfortune, and may also aid the chores and farm work. However, they are known to be short tempered, especially when offended. Once insulted, they will usually play tricks, steal items and even maim or kill livestock.
They say that men who do not properly satisfy their wives are cursed with a black child
This black child is conceived by a mysterious hooded man who comes when the husband is away to make up for the months, sometimes years of lost pleasure
The man is forced to either suffer great humiliation or claim the child is adopted forevermore

BOITATA
It's a snake that's made of fire, and when people destroy forests or burn them, the snakes set these people on fire.
>>57401225
These are just swedish men. They live in the barns, aid in chores, help out with the farm work, prep the bulls. There is nothing mythical about it.
>>57402256

there are white witch myths all over the country
the one in my area is about a dead midwife that helps children that are lost and brutally murders anyone else
Maybe 2spooky4u but here's one I was told as a child...
John Stalvern waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were demons in the base. He didn’t see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Cernel Joson were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway.
John was a space marine for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to dad “I want to be on the ships daddy.”
Dad said “No! You will BE KILL BY DEMONS”
There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in the space station base of the UAC he knew there were demons.
“This is Joson” the radio crackered. “You must fight the demons!”
So John gotted his palsma rifle and blew up the wall.
“HE GOING TO KILL US” said the demons
“I will shoot at him” said the cyberdemon and he fired the rocket missiles. John plasmaed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill.
“No! I must kill the demons” he shouted
The radio said “No, John. You are the demons”
And then John was a zombie.

Lil'nigga lost and found the horse 2 times. On the 3rd time, the owner covered the kid in honey and tied him to a tree, left to the ants to eat him. The next day he went there and found the kid standing and next to him Holy Mary, saying that the boy was going to heaven.

>>57404531
Sombreron
In Georgia, there's a ton of witches. My mother taught me a lot but she also saw her neighbor burst into flames due to a black spell. ATM, she's afraid it might happen to her now because she's seeing symptoms of what her neighbor had (skin flaking off, red patches, burning sensation) but given her main hand in witchery is making potions, she's probably fine. We suspect it was my auntie who casted this spell.
The Boto Legend (Amazon River Dolphin)
During the June festivities, when they celebrated the birthdays of St. John, St. Anthony and St. Peter, the local population of the Amazon region celebrates these festivals dancing in quadrille, releasing fireworks, making fires and eating typical food of the region. The legend says that's when the Amazon River Dolphin out of the river turning into a young, elegant and beautiful man,he's a drunkard and a good dancer, very well dressed wearing clothes, white hat and shoes. The hat is used to hide (since the transformation is not complete) a large hole in the top of the head, made for the dolphin to breathe. It is thanks to this fact that during the festivities of June, when appearing a young man wearing a hat, people asked to him to remove in order to make sure that is not the dophin that is there.
This unknown and attractive boy conquest easily the most beautiful and unaccompanied youth who cross his path and then dance with her all night, seduces, leads her to the river bottom, where sometimes he impregnates her and abandon the girl. So, young people were warned by older women to be careful with the gallantry of beautiful men during the holidays, in order to avoid being seduced by the infallible dolphin and the possibility of becoming, for example, a single mother and so , turn cause for gossip or mockery.
The northern region of Brazil, when people wish to justify the generation of a child outside marriage, or a child from which the father is unknown , it's common to hear that "the child is the daughter/son of the Boto(dolphin)."

Is that Rosetta stone? I use it to learn Japanese, finally.
Ignore ethiopian flag, some basque mithology coming through.
Basajaun (lord of the forest). Its a genie who looks like a huge man with a long-ass beard, he has one human foot and one hoof.
He lives in the forests and guards cattle from wolfs and storms, roaring to warn sheperds when one is coming.
He is a master toolmaker, miller and farmer. He is also a proper dick so humans had to trick him to learn his secrets. There are loads of histories telling how a smartass got some new technology from him by bluffing or lying.
LA Dame Plane

We have talks of navajo skin walkers
Sasquatch.
Also Wendigos, they're from native stories but still scared me as a kid.
200 years ago, a giant with a giant blue bull traversed the USA, chopping trees. He dragged his axe and it cut the pathway to create the Grand Canyon.
My family is originally from Guanajuato, Mexico. The capital city of Guanajuato is really colonial and old and spooky, so there's plenty of scary stories that surround the place. Especially with that Museum of Mummies they have in the city.

Hello, all!
This is Wodan or Woen. He's definitely not Odin because he marries hot sexy Freija instead of old hag Frig. Also at some point he moves to Spain and amasses an army of magical negroes to brings gifts to children in the guise of a Greek saint from Anatolia because he can.
That's all!
The Chasse-Galerie, a French Canadian myth. Basically ghostly men rowing a canoe in the sky, punishment for breaking the conditions of a pact with the Devil.

Yeah, the legend of Näcken exists in Norway as well. Scandi folklore usually pans all over the scandi lands, and there are local variations more often than not.

The Bonhomme Sept-Heure (Literally the 7O'clock man) is the French Canadian version of the Bogeyman, as his name indicates, he's supposed to kidnap children who are outside past 7pm.
>>57409717
Oh wait no I got it wrong. He actually kidnaps children who aren't in bed before 7pm, as in, enters your fucking home and snatches your kid. My parents never scared me with that shit but if they did I would've been scared shitless.
I have a personal story.
Alright so this happened to me when I was younger in my teens, I lived in this really old house that my dad made additions to. I remember for years I would hear sounds at night, things like footsteps, creaks, and moaning, but I always assumed it was people in my family in the night. Sometimes I would see a shadowy figure around, but once again I assumed it was just something else, like my sleep deprived mind playing tricks on me. (I routinely stayed up until 2 or 3 a.m. playing video games). Anyways one night its like around 5 a.m. and im just about to get a glass of water before I go to bed, then I see this pale girl in a dress. At first I think its one of my sisters trying to scare me, so I try to call her out on it, but I got no response the woman just stared at me, then I reasoned that I just had to go to bed, because im seeing things. then she opened her mouth and let out a blood curdling scream, I was completely paralyzed with fear, then she approached me slowly, then she grabbed my arm and started pulling at me. At this point I dont even know what happened, whether it was pure animal instinct, or I was just a sexually deprived teenage boy. But I grabbed her and tore off her long dress and inserted myself in her. I dont even know how I maintained an erection, she felt as cold as ice but I kept going. She let me I dont think the spirit or whatever she was expected this. When I was done she looked at me with the saddest and most broken face ive ever seen in my life, then she vanished. to this day whenever I visit my home I think he still hear her, but instead the sound of footsteps, and the creaking of wood, I hear a soft crying, but the strangest thing is whenever I hear that tortured cry, my penis tingles in excitement. tL;DR: I raped a ghost.
There was this black figure that would sneak into my sisters room at night and give her nightmares. Her screams would wake everybody up at night to the points where my parents had to call the police because they thought she was under attack. They are supposedly the shadows of the people that built the town or something .That shit fucked me up as a kid and another reason why I want to get out of this shitty desert state.
>>57407294
>Mula sem Cabeça
Doesn't that just mean Headless Horse?

The reason the Japanese folded metal during their samurai period is because unlike Europe their metals were very weak requiring them to fold many times.
