Half-equine women. Potentially wealth hoarders, potentially the result of a goddess' vengeful curse.
[Top Section] Anggitay; Region: The Philippines [Middle Section] A woman with golden eyes, a horn atop her forehead, and the lower half of a horse. In her hands she appears to be holding various jewels. Accompanied by descriptive text. Beings with the upper body of a woman and the lower body of a horse. Some claim they are the female equivalent to the tikbalang. There are some who say anggitay are greedy beings, utterly captivated with gathering gold, jewelry, and gems. There are claims that the first anggitay was a woman cursed by Burigadang Pada Sinaklang Bulawan, the Visayan goddess of greed. [Bottom Section] Some depictions in popular culture: N/A

This may be the first photograph of the mysterious Okka. In Japan it is known as a yōkai, with only a few old scrolls alluding to it.
The reason for its elusiveness is the deadly poison it sprays around it. Those who have been close enough to see it, such as this photographer, have quickly perished.
A photograph of a red bulbous animal on the muddy ground. Most prominently, an yellow eye-like protrusion grows on its back. On the other side of its body, it has a small frog-like face. Several large pores open in its body, releasing a black fog that dissipates into the surrounding air. Hyakki Yagyo Emaki, author unkown, ca. 15th Century. A scroll depicting a series of yōkai. Among them, a red bulbous creature stands out. It has a single eye and two legs. Another yōkai is hitting it with a hammer.

Mysterious critters whose sole existence seems to be the nocturnal delivery of maple flavour to maple sap that's being tapped. They work in the crisp night air of early spring, the tree branches still bare.
[Top Section] Mapolian; Region: The North Woods, North America [Middle Section] A small creature of various maple syrup colours. Its upper body is vaguely humanoid, while its wings and tail are somewhat rough and woody in texture. It appears to be carrying a bowl and ladle with an unknown substance within. Accompanied by descriptive text. Winged critters of the North Woods. Although other than having wings nothing else about their physical appearance is described. Supposedly, when maple sap is collected around the turn from winter to spring, these small critters will flit about the maple trees at night. Obscured by the nighttime darkness, mapolians busy themselves about the sugar bush (a forest stand of maple trees for collecting maple syrup). While there, they deposit the distinctive "maple flavour" into the sap. [Bottom Section] Some depictions in popular culture: N/A

Mostraba puntadas hechas a mano, y parecía de piel de ratón.
Podía haber sido confeccionado por un aprendiz para demostrar sus habilidades. Se les solía asignar tareas inusuales como prueba. Pero, ¿qué hacia tirado en un sitio tan agreste?
La familia Somerville aún lo conserva.

El granjero dio por sentado que pertenecía a la «Gente Pequeña», como se llama allí a los seres feéricos, y se lo entregó al médico local, de quien pasó a la familia Somerville. Durante una gira por EEUU, la Dra. Edith Somerville llevó la pieza a la universidad de Harvard, donde fue examinada.

El conocido como zapato de hadas, hallado en la Península de Beara, al suroeste de Irlanda, en 1835; en medio de un sendero por un granjero que buscaba un atajo. Demasiado estrecho y pequeño para una muñeca, su suela mostraba signos de desgaste, y era del estilo de un caballero del siglo pasado.

Menreiki - (面霊気) - [Yokai | Noh masks] - sixty six ancient Noh masks that where brought to life as they where perhaps "enchanted by the raw talent of the performer who first wore them" well maybe these masks came alive, perhaps from the proceeding decades of neglect.. samkalensky.com/products/men...
Menreiki - (面霊気) - [Yokai | Noh mask] - "Spirit-Masks" - "Sixty Six Ancient Noh Masks that where said to be brought to life as they where perhaps "enchanted the talent of the performer who first wore them."  These masks, once used in outstanding performances, gained a soul themselves: Either from the essence of the performers raw talent, or perhaps through the following decades of neglect... It has been said that when Noh masks are left alone; they may move at night, if more than 4 are gathered they might start talking.. It's important to take good care of such treasures!" a ghostly mask radiates spiritual energy Samkalensky.com Menreiki floats above several masks loin the ones that appear in the following photo the original menreiki - Toriyama Sekiens Hyakki Treasure Bokkuro [1784]

Mekurabe - [Yokai] - An Immeasurable number of vengeful, ghostly skulls of those killed by Warlords. They pile up in massive skull-shaped mounds outside of their mansions, their cold gaze unrelenting. Taira no Kiyomori glared them down as though in a staring contest.. samkalensky.com/products/mek...

Dakhanavar, the vampire formerly known for guarding the mountains of Ultmish Alto-tem. It is said that he never returned after that fateful trick.
[Top Section] Dakhanavar; Alternate Name: Dashnavar; Region: Ultmish Alto-tem, near Yerevan, Armenia [Middle Section] A humanoid with sharp claws, ears, and teeth. He wears large pants and a waistcloth. Accompanied by descriptive text. A territorial vampire of Armenian legend. Dakhanavar guarded his home mountains and valleys of Ultmish Alto-tem. Lived in caves, though he worried explorers attempting to count the valleys of his home would uncover all his dwellings. When trespassers stepped upon his land he stalked them closely until they stopped to sleep. Drains victims of their blood, sucking it out through the soles of their feet. Once, a pair of explorers, knowing his habit, slept with one another's head covering the other's feet. As it was dark he examined them by touch. Finding two heads and no feet, as bewildered Dakhanavar lamented how he had never seen such a being in all 366 valleys of Ultmish Alto-tem then fled, never seen again.

Un mito muy arraigado en Galicia es el de las mouras. Se las tiene por una raza sobrenatural paralela, constructoras de dólmenes, entidades del más allá... Este ensayo de Rafael Quintía es una joya para entender cómo dichas leyendas moldean la cultura de un pueblo. Indispensable.

The accursed mula sem cabeça. Flames burst out from these mules' necks, accompanied by their neighing and wailing.
[Top Section] Mula sem Cabeça; Alternate Name: Headless Mule; Region: Brazil [Middle Section] A bucking brown mule wearing a bridle. It has no head, and instead a burst of flame escapes from its open neck. Accompanied by descriptive text. A woman's soul that has been cursed by God for her sin. The exact sin varies by story, with variations including, but not limited to: sleeping with her boyfriend before marriage or having sexual relations with a priest. It has loud iron horseshoes and a bridle. Seemingly, the curse can be lifted should the heated bridle be removed or if its blood is drawn.
