[MYTHOLOGY MEME] 4/4 Celestial Deities - Shangó

Perhaps the most popular of the Yoruba orishas, Shangó rules over lightning, thunder, fire, the drums and dance. He is a warrior orisha with quick wits, quick temper and is the epitome of virility. Shangó took the form of the fourth Alafin (supreme king) of Oyó on Earth for a time. He is married to Obba but has relations with Oyá and Oshún. He is an extremely hot blooded and strong-willed orisha that loves all the pleasures of the world: dance, drumming, women, song and eating. When one sees the quickness with which lightning makes short work of a tree or a fire rage through an area, one has witnessed the temper of Shangó in action. [x]

I begin tucking him into bed and he tells me, “Daddy check for monsters under my bed.” I look underneath for his amusement and see him, another him, under the bed, staring back at me quivering and whispering, “Daddy there’s somebody on my bed.”

Alright. I just wanted to add one short story about a mythological beast from the Inuit. This happens to be one of my favorite pictures of all time, just because of the level of creepiness involved. These are Qallupilluit, Qallupilluk singular. Now, Qallupilluit are ocean creatures that steals lone children through cracks in the ice.

There are many descriptions for a Qallupilluit, so I’ll name a couple popular ones. They are claimed to be short with blue skin, they wear parkas made of loon feathers, and their hair is home to a host of sea critters like crabs, and laced with seaweed.

Sometimes they are described with long hair, like the picture, and green skin with long finger nails. They are said to wear a amauti, a unique parka created with a pouch for a child to rest in.

Sometimes they are said to have scaly and bumpy skin. And even sometimes they have an eider duck parka. Most descriptions of the creature include a pouch for carrying children.

They are said to reek of sulfur, which I’m sure adds to their non-existant appeal. Inuit elders say that Qallupilluit have a specific humming sound that they make, and you can hear it when they are near. They also tend to jump out of the cracks in the ice without warning. And, the most creepy thing to me, they knock on the ice and you can hear the distinct tapping. If the ocean gets particularly wavy or steam rises, a Qallupilluit is hiding in the water.

No one is sure why they steal children. Some speculate loneliness. Others speculate dinner. Some variations of Qallupilluit mythology say that the child stolen will either die or turn into a mermaid to live underwater with the Qallupilluk that took them.

Most accounts claim that this was a legend created to scare children away from playing on the beach alone, or approaching cracking, drifting ice. But, even so, I wanted to include this because something about the idea of Qallupilluit really scares the crap out of me. Humming, ice tapping, baby kidnapping ocean creatures.

The Inuit sure knew how to scare the crap out of children (and possibly everyone else. Unless I’m alone here.)

The belief in shadow people, also called shadow men or shadow beings, comes from the Native American tradition. These creatures are much like apparitions, but are said to be more like shadows – hence the name. They are dark forms on your peripheral vision that disappear when you notice them. Unlike ghosts, shadow people are not said to resemble humans, wearing clothing or doing human-like things.

In fact, shadow people are usually more menacing than ghosts. People who see shadow people sometimes report that they are followed or even chased by these creatures. In rare instances, shadow people have been known to attack humans. Almost always, seeing a shadow person makes the witness feel a sense of dread or horror.

Most people describe shadow people has being silhouettes with no indefinable features. Some people report seeing eyes, usually red, and shadow people are often described as being made of smoke or mist. Most people that shadow people are a kind of evil ghost or demon, but some also believe that they are alien. In the vast majority of cases, shadow people are said to be cloaked or wearing a hat.

Although science explains shadow people as an optical illusion on the peripheral vision, there is also evidence to corroborate their existence. You can use thermal cameras, electromagnetic frequencies or EVP evidence to heighten your sensing of shadow people. Shadow people, like all paranormal beings, cannot be proven, but at the same time, there is a ton of evidence that suggest they are real.

Instruction for a Help

Every other time someone purposefully misspells “baby”, I get a little misty-eyed. This is why: 

A while (wow, 2008?) ago, I checked SomethingAwful regularly (shh). It formed a lot of my humor and indulged my hunger for the niche, the strange, and the genuinely creepy. My favorite thing they ever published was a serial by Zach Parsons.

First, read these. Starting with “Fruit”.

They’re pretty easy to breeze through. It won’t make a lot of sense at first, but it helps to try.

This is your dessert, and it’s so yummy, but you have to eat your dinner first.

Just. Uuugh, I wish Mr. Parsons still did stuff like this. Or am I missing it?  Also, here’s an unrelated series by the same author where someone says “even a child-molesting clock is right twice a day”.

“Does it hurt?” asked the Rabbit.

“Sometimes,” said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. “When you are Real you don’t mind being hurt.”

“Does it happen all at once, like being wound up,” he asked, “or bit by bit?”

“It doesn’t happen all at once,” said the Skin Horse. “You become. It takes a long time. That’s why it doesn’t happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don’t matter at all, because once you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand.”

- The Velveteen Rabbit (or How Toys Become Real) by Margery Williams, 1922
