At Hallowtide in Scotland, the Samhnag bonfire was made of ferns and peat; a circle of stones placed around its edges. Each stone "named" for a family member. Next day, if any stone had gone that person would not last the year...

My current read is @KerriManiscalco's Kingdom of the Wicked and it is really neat to read about my culture in a novel. I grew up with these types of folk superstitions like the malocchio and I love reading it paired with demons🖤 Here are our twin witch girls Emilia and Vittoria.

He was known as the ‘Pied Piper’—a #spectator to some & others a taboo.
A fixture in the parish like the #ink on a tattoo. His music was a melting pot of superstitions—a #choice of shadows whistling, sitting, waiting, & wishing.✍🏽#bravewrite #vsspoem #vss365

Time to say Goodnight
The Lovecraft universe
Eerie landscapes of New England
Lost along some austere shores
Where superstitions shroud the land in their thick fog
And legends hold the believers hostage to their fears

In Cornwall if you see a bat it's traditional to chant for luck:
“Airymouse, airymouse, fly over my head
and you shall have a crust of bread,
and when I brew and when I bake
you shall have a piece of my wedding cake.”
