witches and children

 

It was said that witches made cannibalistic meals with children, or used children's corpses to prepare their magic powders and ointments. And according to what was believed at that time, witches had the ability to transmit the art of magic from generation to generation.

In Russia, Poland, and the Czech Republic, according to legend, night witches, called notchnitsa, used to slip into the rooms of nursing infants at night to pinch, bite, and even suck their blood, but if an adult intervened in that situation , the named ones disappeared as if by magic.

How do you scare away these witches?

They hate metal, so a box of needles, a knife, pins, a piece of shiny metal or open scissors under the bed, mat or children's crib. Also...
