Demons of the coasts - Boginki
Some slavic water demons prefer the shores of rivers and lakes instead of the dark depths. Their favorite shelter were caves near river sources, where they waited for their victims who wanted to draw fresh water. Boginki appeared at the end of Spring and disappeared just in Autumn. In most regions t...

Walking on glass
