Little behind on #Mythology #Mermay but I'm catching up. Here's the bludnik, a swamp-dwelling demon that lures people into the swamp to kill them! Charming old fellow, right?

Today's #mythology #Mermay features the will-o-wisp. Though not strictly aquatic, he does live in swamps and lights up the paths deeper in. Would you follow?
