In a Flemish folktale, a man mocked a witch even though the witch had told him that he should leave those alone who leave you alone. When he walked home, a screaming cat jumped in front of him. The cat vanished and appeared again, and again. Apparently, he arrived home more dead than alive.

In Flanders, it was said not to go for wintry walks in the forest at night. The only beings wandering the woods were werewolves and they would force you to carry them.

In Victorian England, telling ghost stories at Christmas was a popular tradition. The sun setting so early in December, with families generally staying inside and huddling around the fire to keep warm, created an evocative environment for spooky tales.

🌤️🐦⬛🌧️Rooks were said to be weather-prophets and notice was always taken of where they built their nests - if high in the treetops, the following summer would be fine, but if they built low, it would be wet and cold.

The bat in Bram Stoker’s "Dracula" cemented the connection between bats and vampires in modern imagination. Stoker drew on centuries of folklore linking bats to the supernatural. #BookologyThursday #Dracula

The very attractive Rosemary Leaf Beetle has become established in the UK over the last 30 years. Despite having the scientific name of Chrysolina Americana it is actually a native of southern Europe. Fairly widespread in Cheshire.
