Today's @FolkloreThurs prompt is the underground! Fairies in Irish folklore are called the Aos Sí or Daoine Sídhe, meaning "The People of the Mounds." They were said to live
beneath the tumuli and other old megalithic structures that dot the Irish landscape.
#FolkloreThursday

Hel rules the inglorious dead of Norse belief, those who died of disease or lethargy in old age or those who did not live a life worth living. Here they toil building a ship of toenails, which will carry the armies of the dead to Ragnarok. #FolkloreThursday

There were many kinds of mountain spirits to be found in medieval mines. Dwarf-like ones were a good omen for nearby rich ore veins, the mountain devil instead could hurt you throwing rocks or even kill you with his poisonous breath #FolkloreThursday
The Knockers or Tommyknockers, (aka Cousin Jacks) are underground spirits of the mines. Referring to the knocking on the walls before cave-ins. 2ft tall creatures, warning the miners of impending danger. But also known to steal unattended tools or left out food. #FolkloreThursday

CALLICANTZAROS demonic beings confined to the underworld, emerging for 12 days from 25th Dec to 7th Jan. Uncannily referred to in English as the 'Christmas Vampire'. Greek & Serbian folklore has KALLIKANZAROI, malevolent Xmas goblins #FolkloreThursday

The Handless Maiden tale is a symbol of women's journey into the underworld to reclaim their psychic & creativity power. In the tale, the girl loses her hands to the Devil & then begins her transformative journey of death/rebirth until she heals & becomes Queen.#FolkloreThursday
