Balkans - Ghost - Spirit
Ghosts may be found everywhere, but in popular
beliefs in the Balkans there is an especially great diversity of such creatures which reside somewhere
between this world and the next. This is a systematic
account of good and evil spirits - from the good house dragon which sleeps under the doorstep and
protects the house, to giants, dwarfs, dragons of various sizes and shapes, nixies, fairies, wind and
weather spirits, werwolves, witches, centaurs, vampires and even frightening apparitions which are
unknown in the western world. This book is richly illustrated with stunning pictures in mixed media. (10+)
