I can easily imagine strange things like the Hey-Hey Men
could live in such a place.
Origin: Southern German to the Balkans
Description: Hey-Hey men are shape shifters that are rarely
seen, but when they are, the usually take the form a short man with a wide
brimmed hat, red cloak and a whip. They
can be identified by their “hey-hey” laugh.
I don’t name ‘em. I just write
about ‘em.
Disposition: A person would be foolish to follow the laugh
of these dangerous faeries for fear of losing their way. A person would be even more foolish to laugh
at the Hey-Hey Man. If you do, he’ll
kill you. Simple and elegant. I like it!
Such a funny name for dangerous faeries!
ReplyDeleteI know, ridiculous, right?
DeleteLOL. You never disappoint. Love!
ReplyDeleteThanks! This was is a bit silly.
DeleteI think I'm dead because the description of the Hey-Hey Man made me laugh.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. :-) At least you didn't have the audacity to write about them!
DeleteSounds like something from Grimm.
ReplyDeleteThey would do nicely on Grimm!
DeleteI have never heard of hey-hey men. There are a lot of fantastical creatures I don't know anything about.
ReplyDeleteAlmost every culture has their fantastical creatures. There just enough hours in the day to research them all! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteOoh sounds a little bit like the Douens in our country's folklore. Douens are beings which unbaptized children become when they die. The live in the tropical rainforest and lure children and mothers away from safety by the sound of their laughter. Interesting post!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. I'll have to check the Douens out!
