✨30 Natives and The Creepiest Urban Legends In Their Country

Me too, Rick.

Hmm, they are not the healthiest of scary creatures

Really! Maybe the grossest one I have read about

Interesting ... Mexico has some scary legends.

24. Turkey

Turkish here but I guess it is more related to Islam than country.

We have Djinn. And it is nothing like the Robin Williams.

According to folklore and religion, there are good ones and evil ones. Good ones mostly Muslim, so they don’t bother you. Evil ones mostly don’t believe in God.

So if you say Djinn, they are drawn to you. And sometimes they haunt you just for fun. They don’t have a specific shape because they can shapeshift but most noticeable feature is their feet are backwards. They live next to walls, abandoned houses, bushes and trees when you have to pee at night you shouldn’t pee at those or they will get angry and haunt you.

They are from another plane so normally invisible unless they want otherwise. It is always told that they like to toy with people. They like burning people, posessing people even raping the beautiful young girls. They target people who don’t believe them and who believes them and but terrified of them.

Some people claim to have power on them. These things can know everything about a person by just looking at one of that person’s belonging. They can travel huge distances in a blink.

There some verses from Quran that can make them keep distance depending on the creature’s power.

And I had a teacher, also friend of my father, who -allegedly- was perfect at fending them. According to his stories and his wife's words, he tried to send away a group which haunted a girl. He thought he managed until the next day. One remained and tried to suffocate his newborn son with telephone cable. Wife says phone was flying, glasses were flying and hitting them and there were noone in the house. Eventually he managed it.

I happened to saw a similar thing when I was 7. But i still don’t know it was a dream or reality after all these years. But I still get the goosebumps thinking of it.  ~

An adventure in the woods turns scary when Murdoch, Ogden, Higgins and Ruth are stalked by a beast that killed two men.

25. Russia


There’s a creature named “domovoi” in Russian folklore. Basically he’s like a guardian spirit of the house, who looks after the house and its inhabitants (if he likes you – if he doesn’t, he can do stuff like tangle your beard or rattle pans or whatever lol). Once a year you are can leave some kasha for him overnight to show your love.



There’s a superstition that you if a lose something inside the house, you can say something like “Domovoi, domovoi, you’ve played with it, now give it back”, then you leave the room and he’s supposed to give back to you. One of my elderly relatives swore by this method, she said she exploited hers to fetch her stuff all the time lol.  ~

26. Native Americans


Man… Native Americans have a lot of crap that’ll mess up your day. In Oklahoma I heard a few, one was specifically about some land my uncle had bought. There is a bend in the creek that’s insanely deep. Easily 15 feet which is super odd considering its knee deep just a bit up the creek as well as just a bit down. Apparently it’s been like that for years. The land was well known as it had a school on it a long time ago. I met one guy who went to school out there as well as lived there. He was able to tell me about a bunch of the landmarks as well as point in the direction of several new ones we hadn’t seen. He also told me about the bend in the creek. He said it was a portal to another world. He said while hunting one day he had shot a deer. Following it he found it on the bank of the creek and it sprung up and jumped right into the middle of the bend and never resurfaced. As he stood there waiting he kept hearing laughter until he could finally make out the figure across the water as a little person mocking him. When he started to move the little person leaped into the water and disappeared as well.



He also talked about the deer woman, but that was like a bad fairytale to keep your children in line. It was like a centaur but half deer, half old woman. When a child misbehaved at any type of ceremony the deer woman would stalk them in the woods until finally taking them and eating them.
