What are some even SCARIER folklore or mythical creatures, and where are they from? Great question! Apparently, last time I didn't answer the question to your liking, so I answered it again. In this video, I’ll go over 8 even SCARIER mythical creatures from around the world, in human history. If you love learning about myths and legends this video is for you, trust me bro!
Okay, I hear you so apparently seven wasn't enough and apparently we didn't go global enough and maybe I didn't pronounce something, right
So in this video we are gonna go deep finding even more even
Scarier even more mythical creatures and folklore from around the world
Part one is linked in the description. Feel free to watch that after this video, you know Star Wars style
And also the ranking system from video one still applies here starting off with cool
But we could vibe and then progressively getting more scary until we reach. Please don't exist eight
Baba Yaga starting off with possibly the chillest vibe in the world of mythical creatures
We have Baba Yaga
And if I'm being completely honest, the only reason Baba Yaga is on this list is because I love saying Baba Yaga
Baba Yaga Baba Yaga Baba Yaga is a character from Slavic folklore and honestly has a bit of
Interesting and kind of confusing lore
So Baba Yaga is one of three sisters all with the same name and Baba Yaga
Specifically not to be confused with Baba Yaga or Baba Yaga is described in one of two ways
Baba Yaga is described as a repulsive ferocious looking old woman who fries and eats children and
Simultaneously is also described as being a nice old woman who helps out those who are lost in the woods
Within the context of fairy tales or folklore Baba Yaga is just as I described either a donor which in fairy tale context means a
Character that tests the hero and provides magical assistance to the hero upon their success or a villain
Which doesn't necessarily require any context or could appear as both being slightly ambiguous with their intentions
Baba Yaga is often associated with forest wildlife and the most distinct traits of Baba Yaga are flying around in a
Mortar wielding a pestle and dwelling deep in the forest in a hut
Standing on chicken legs with all this being said Baba Yaga is definitely creepy
Specifically her horrible complexion and her murderous intent on children and her I guess cannibalistic tendencies
I definitely believe I could vibe with her good side and
Just imagine sitting deep in the forest in some weird hut smoking on some wizard weed
I don't know about you, but sounds kind of cool to me. So that's why Baba Yaga is creepy, but we could vibe
I actually did meet Baba Yaga once and she granted me one wish
So, let me show you what I can do now. Look at the subscribe button subscribe to the channel subscribe to trust me, bro
Today did it work? Let me know
Let's move on seven chupacabra moving to the other side of the world to Puerto Rico and Mexico with a slightly creepier creature
We have the chupacabra which literally translates to goat sucker, which is pretty cool
The chupacabra is definitely one of the most well-known creatures on this list
But I still will give a quick overview of their physical attributes
there are two primary physical descriptions of the chupacabra first being very
reptilian and alien like
Roughly the size of a small bear with a row of spines going down the back of their neck and reaching the base of their
Tail this description is typically from Puerto Rico
whereas the Southwest American in that Mexican description is slightly different they describe it more as a
Wolf that is lost its hair and has thin tattered skin the creepiness for the chupacabra
It definitely depends on which description we're focusing on for me personally
I find the alien like four-foot-tall version of the chupacabra much scarier than the sickly dog looking chupacabra either way
They're both creepy and what makes them so feared is the havoc they wreak on livestock
the whole origin story of the chupacabra is that there was
Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of farm animals that had similar lacerations on their neck and were almost bled dry
These attacks were uncommon from any other sort of animal attack that were common for the time in the area
therefore creating such a
Phenomenon for as scary as the chupacabra may seem they're only in the number seven spot simply because they target primarily farm animals
Which to us really means they're not a threat unless you're a farm animal watching this then I would definitely
Probably consider putting this as number one
But regardless we have a lot scarier creatures to cover. So let's keep it moving six
Mappingari the mappingari is a Brazilian folklore creature said to be the protector of the forest and its animals
The mappingari is supposedly a former human shaman turned into a hairy humanoid cyclops
Visually, the mappingari is very similar to Bigfoot with some pretty significant differences those being having only one large
Having a large mouth in the middle of its stomach and having backwards feet so it is not as easily tracked personally
I think the most terrifying thing about this creature is their physical appearance
Not much is necessarily known about their behavior besides the fact that they have a smell that is so horrid that it is able to
Render people unconscious and the fact that their roar is so loud is deafening to humans
Both of those are very scary as well, too
but for me the mappingari is most terrifying based on looks alone, which is honestly pretty impressive like if you were in the woods and
Smelt something so putrid you felt lightheaded and about to pass out you turn around and see a one-eyed
Tall hairy creature with a mouth in its stomach and backwards feet
You would probably be terrified even if they didn't do anything to you
Even if they just walked away, even if they handed you a free cupcake, you still would be terrified
I rest my case moving on. 5. Corpo Seco. Now staying in Brazil
We have Corpo Seco, which is a dried old skeleton
Corpo Seco is a cursed person a kind of undead that is condemned to roam the earth forever
It happens when one commits a sin that has no chance of being forgiven
After they die, his spirit is not accepted by God nor the devil
The earth itself rejects that body as if it were disgusted by the sinner
Thus their dry body, only skin and bones, leaves the place that they were buried to wander during the night
Their only action is to terrify those who see them. Other key elements of their frightening appearance is their long
Nails and hair which never stop growing. Although Corpo Seco is only claimed to have the purpose of scaring individuals
It is very well known that the Corpo Seco is evil in nature. Very evil. It is claimed that during his life
He beat his own mother to death for no reason which might explain the whole rejected by God and the devil and the earth
I definitely believe that the Corpo Seco is creepy and scarier than anything else we've seen on this list
But one thing they do lack is a very strong capacity for violence
Some claim that the Corpo Seco has the ability to suck blood from victims to then allow them to look human again for a few
Days, but this seems a bit far out there, which is hilarious for this list
I definitely believe that this is the perfect spot for Corpo Seco and I believe we might see another
scarier much scarier
Skeleton half-dead zombie down the list. We now have our first Asian entry on the list
Yokai, yokai are a class of supernatural entities and spirits in Japanese folklore
Yokai are not demons, but they're not angels either
They are a spiritual entity and their behavior can range from
Maneuvering to mischievous to even benevolent to humans depending on how you contact them for the yokai
Their looks vary almost as much as their intentions
They're often described as having animal like features such as the kappa, which is depicted as a turtle or
Tengu, which is commonly depicted with wings and considered a bird of prey
Although other yokai can appear humanoid in appearance
Whereas other yokai resemble inanimate objects and others resemble no discernible shape at all
Yokai are typically described as having spiritual or supernatural
Abilities with shape-shifting being one of the most common traits associated with yokai
Could you imagine just like trying to show your friend what a yokai is with examples? Hey, bro. Check this out
Uh, what is it? Do you see that animal like creature over there? Uh, yeah, it's creepy looking
Yeah, that is a yokai and even though it looks creepy. It's actually benevolent to humans and is pretty cool
Oh, hey, bro. Check this out. What is it? That is a chair and it's also yokai. Okay
Yeah, he's very mischievous and will play pranks on you. Oh
Hey, bro. Check out that cloud of
Undistinguishable gas in the air. Uh, yeah, that is also a yokai and it's gonna kill you. Oh great
It's kind of like that Spongebob scene where it's just like are you Squidward? You're Squidward. Let me guess you're Squidward
It's just like yokai can either be good neutral bad. It can be indistinguishable. It could be humanoid
It could be an object like you're yokai. I'm yokai
we're all yokai to me personally the scariest part of the yokai is the fact that they're so
Indistinguishable and so secretive with their intentions
They could literally be anything anywhere with the intention of doing anything to me
That is just scary
And if I was in a situation where I knew I was to encounter a yokai
I think it would be mental torment even trying to decipher what is and what isn't a regular object and what is and what?
Isn't trying to hurt me for me?
The yokai scary factor is definitely within my own personal theoretical factor rather than more of their documented behavior
I just think that their abilities and their intentions are so mixed that with how strong they are combined with how much they can vary
There's a lot of opportunity for scary things to happen
And I think for me honestly the scariest part is the unknown in that three
Nishi, I feel like I've been rambling probably more than I should be
So I'm gonna try to keep it a little more concise for the top three here this one
Like honestly, most of the entries on this list was a comment on the last video
So if you want part three comment your favorite here, but Nishi is a Bangladeshi folklore. It's honestly quite interesting
I feel like the best way to describe Nishi is almost like a mix between a skinwalker and
Yorona in Bangladeshi folklore Nishi is a ghost or spirit that appears at night
Then she calls out to a victim at night with the voice of someone close to the victim
Then she also takes the form of that voice
However, they keep their distance to make sure that the victim isn't able to fully identify who is calling on them
then the she walks very fast and keeps a large distance ahead of the victim and usually leads the way to a
Deserted area where it can reveal its true form to the helpless victim and then almost certainly killed one
Important thing to note about the Nishi is that they cannot call out more than twice
Thus the Nishi can be identified if it calls out a person's name
No more than two times and only at night much about the Nishi is honestly unknown
But one thing I would recommend is if you hear your name called
Twice at night and think you see a loved one or a friend off in the distance
Don't follow them. The ambiguity and the sheer simplicity of Nishi is terrifying, but we still have two more to go
Vampire
Vampires by far are the most well-known and most documented creatures on this list
This was actually going to be number one until I learned about the number one
I actually put in place which we'll get to in a minute
Like I mentioned vampires are well known so I wanted to focus on attributes about vampires that are potentially less mainstream first things first
Vampires feed on vital essence not just blood vital essence generally in the form of blood
But the vital essence could be any life-bearing fluid from a human being so there's one little idea
Wink wink, does that make them scary? No, that honestly makes me feel another way, but I'm not gonna talk about that right now
Anyways, I think the scariest part about vampires are how strong they are watch Batman vs
Dracula, that's a real animated movie and it's dope and he almost beats Batman
obviously Batman wins but only by the skin of his teeth Dracula and vampires in general are
Super strong and almost immortal besides their few pitfalls being sunlight garlic and a stake through the heart in more modern
depictions vampires come across as charismatic and
Sophisticated typically being scholarly and well put together and if you watched our serial killer video
You'll learn that this is the perfect disaster to be swooned by someone who has darker deeper plans for you
I think my favorite part about vampire lore is how many aspects of it are based in reality and are well documented
for example during the 18th century
There was a frenzy of vampire sightings in Eastern Europe with frequent stockings and grave diggings to identify and to kill these potential
Revenants even government officials engaged in the hunting and stocking of vampires
Despite being called the Age of Enlightenment during which most folkloric legends were quelled the belief in vampires increased
Dramatically resulting in a mass hysteria throughout most of Europe the panic began with an outbreak of alleged vampire attacks in East Prussia in
1721 the first officially reported
Involves a Serbian man who died and then came back to life to ask his son for food when his son denied him food
He was found dead the following day. Just imagine. It's a 1700s. You're just chilling your dad's been gone for a day
But that's kind of normal. You didn't realize he was dead. You see your dad come up to you
And he's like, hey son, can you get me some 1970s food and you're like not get it yourself
What are you talking about?
Get out of here you messy guy and then he just gets on you sucks your blood and you die crazy
But not as crazy as our last and final entry one
Dragar Dragar by far is the most powerful most deadly most scary
mythological creature on this entire list
Dragar is a Scandinavian folklore and is described as the following
Dragar is an undead creature an animated corpse that inhabits its grave often guarding burying treasure
The Dragar is a terrifying zombie like mythical creature who roams the earth looking for victims
They are infamous resurrected corpses of Viking warriors
These creatures are often described as having a strong
Stench of rotting flesh and a black and blue skin just picture a Viking but zombified with blue skin
Exposed skeleton, that's basically what they look like as far as smell without going into detail. Just imagine the worst smell you've ever smelt
rotting flesh
Disgusting just just horrible strong odor. That's just the beginning the scariest attribute about them
Is their supernatural strength their physical strength is already supernatural and incredibly strong making them fierce and almost
undefeatable warriors to mortals
one of their scariest and potentially strongest supernatural strength is their ability to
Control the weather tell the future and make their way into their victims dreams
This basically means that if you have any issue at all with one of these creatures
It is a never-ending hell
Even if they're not able to get to you, even if you are consistently running in hiding
You will see them every night in your dreams
They will know where you go as they can predict the future and if they do find you their physical strength will overpower you
Instantly the sheer aesthetic and the sheer power of these creatures has made them the absolute
Scariest on this list for me personally, and I really hope they don't exist
I guess what I'm trying to say in the point of this entire video is if something smells bad
It's probably a mythical creature. And if somebody smells bad, they're probably a folklore killer. Trust me, bro
Anyways, thank you guys so much for watching. This was part 2 if you want to see part 1 the link is in the description
Thank you guys so much for the support and the recommendations in the last video
