Have you ever felt someone's gaze in a dark forest? Or heard footsteps in the attic of an old house when no one should be there? We have collected true accounts from eyewitnesses about encounters with the unclean force. These stories were passed down from mouth to mouth, from witness to listener, from generation to generation. Tales and true stories — this is a special genre of folk art, where every word — is a memory of an eyewitness. There is no magic or sorcery in them, only real people, places, and events, behind which lies something inexplicable. Leshies and water spirits, household spirits and bathhouse spirits, witches, mermaids, and the resurrected dead — all of them were part of life, invisible neighbors, whom it is better not to speak of loudly. Become a part of the folk imagination that has contemplated the unknown for centuries and preserved the memory of encounters with the unclean force.
