In the children's fantasy novel "Silver on the Tree" by Susan Cooper, Welsh boy Bran Davies has a phobia of the Mari Lwyd - the Welsh Christmas tradition of carrying a horse's skull door-to-door - and his terror pursues him as a demon shaped like a horse skeleton.

And the end of

31. “Little spirit in the night, they tell us that tonight spirits like to roam and walk and maybe you’ll want to play a trick, well I am dressed up too and I hope we both have a little treat.”

I just thought that a little Mari Lwyd would be fun

I absolutely LOVED 's novella "Pretty Marys All in a Row" and was inspired to do a quick drawing of the five Marys; Mary Mac, Resurrection Mary, Bloody Mary, Mari Lwyd, and Mistress Mary. I loosely based their designs on fashion drawings.

A Mari Lwyd design I put together. I think folklore and just funny shit we've done throughout history is so interesting. How do you like my take on it?

Howdy Neighbor 🌈🖤
now on . I was obsessed with the concept of Mari Lwyd for a hot minute and drew this skull during that phase. This work never seemed fully complete, but doing a little color change really is made it *click click*
