The Paranormal ABC's

[clarisse]

L is for Lampades, Greek nymphs of the underworld.

[hellboy]

K is for Kappa, a Japanese water sprite.

[banalitybob]

L is for Lamia, a half snake half woman.

[hellboy]

M is for Mandrake Root, which has many legends surrounding it including that it only grows where the semen of a hanged man has dripped on to the ground. Gross. Additionally, it appeared prominently in Pan's Labyrinth, possibly my favorite movie and one of Guillermo Del Toro's best.

Also, I realized that in my previous post, I apparently forgot the damned order of the alphabet so, now we should be back on track, because I was supposed to post an M, not a K. Sorry.

N is for... the Nine of Swords of the Tarot Card! The card of martyr and overcoming terrible things with faith.

[olive]

M is for Manticore: the body of a Lion and a head of man with three rows of shark-like teeth. Said to have a voice like a trumpet. There is some discrepancy on the rest: Tail like a scorpion, or a dragon and wings like a bat, though it some times pictured without them [Image].


and C is for Cthulhu, but we all are acquainted with him, already

[gyakusatsu]

N is for Nyarlathotep, Messenger of the Old Gods, The Black Pharoah, The Creeping Shadow, Faceless One, and Destroyer of Worlds. Courtesy of Howard P. Lovecraft

[King Nuada Silverlance]

Do you people truly not know your pathetic alphabet?

O is for omen, the one that I bring crashing down about your head.

[langelaan]

P is for Penanggalan, which is a Malay vampire that consists of a detatched flying head with dangling intestines underneath. Just your type, Nuada.
