there isn’t one alternate reality in which i don’t fall in love with you
i had a dream about fucking… vampire discourse on tumblr like;
“reminder that blood sucker is a slur”
“vamp-born-vamps are valid if u got bitten later in life you’re not part of the vamp community”
“support vamps who drink human blood, support vamps who drink animal blood, support vamps who drink animal and human blood”
fantasy tumblr would be fucking insufferable
god can you even imagine
“If you only have two legs you’re human-passing and don’t belong in the fantasy community”
“What about satyrs?’
“You can wear shoes”
“Just a reminder that if you appropriate mermaid culture you’re a piece of shit”
“Actually we don’t mind because a lot of our culture comes from humans”
“Shapeshifters aren’t valid because they can be human if they want”
Oh my god it gets worse and worse
Listen Sweaty :) :) :) Bigfoots and Jersey Devils aren’t REAL mythfolk :) :) You r just confuused humans :)))

Werewolves are still werewolves no matter what form they’re in. We don’t stop being werewolves when we’re in human form, we don’t stop being werewolves when we’re in wolf form. Stop werewolf erasure!
Listen, I’ve been in a committed relationship with a selkie for over ten years. I can tell you that whole hiding-the-pelt-thing is total bullshit. If he wanted to leave he could, I am not holding him hostage. Please, stop spreading this hurtful misinformation.
Support veelas who dance naked at the crossroads
Support veelas who seduce random townspeople
Support veelas who take shepherds as lovers
STOP SLUT SHAMING VEELAS!!!!!!!
friendly reminder that “ghost” is a term reserved for noncorporeals. if you’re semicorporeal you’re a poltergeist. stop calling poltergeists ghosts.
destroy the idea that zombies “need” to eat brains
some zombies can’t eat brains due to physical conditions that make them too weak to gnaw through the skull
some zombies can’t digest them
some zombies just don’t like the taste
all of these zombies are STILL VALID

Repeat after me kids: Kelpies do. not. have to look like horses to still be Kelpies. Kelpies who take non-equine forms are JUST AS VALID as the Kelpies who take equine forms. Stop Kelpie purism and erasure.
Friendly reminder that Wendigos are possessed by cannibalistic spirits and can’t actually help their cravings.
Stop judging Wendigos for something they can’t control!
Don’t date underage elves! Human years and elf years are not the same!
Stop the pedophilia!

In the early 1800s a man named Little Jon lived in this so called earth cabin (swe. ‘backstuga’) located in southern Småland, Sweden. An earthen cabin is built partially buried in the ground, in this case there’s three walls of stone and one wall made of wood. In Sweden earthen cabins was common in the forests from the 1600s until the late 1800s Link
MJWATON’S FAV HP MYTHICAL CREATURES
merfolk: plural, noun, mer·folk \ ˈmər , ˈmə̄+ˌ- Merfolk are one of the classical mythological creatures. Probably the second most famous next to the Dragons. But most of them are Mermaids (The Female Merfolk) the Mermen (The Male Merfolk) are way less common in comparison.\
Mermaid moodboard : Amazonian mermaids
Amazonian mermaids live in the depth of the amazon river, usually in mangrove swamps. Their tail is made of a greyish green shade and like the piranah fish, they are carnivores and eat whatever and whoever has the misfortune to swim in the river whether it be anaconda snakes, jaguars, crocodiles or humans. They are the most dangerous predators of the amazon forest.
On Uncommon Types of Mermaids (Excerpt)
(Extracted from the article “On Uncommon Types of Mermaids” by Eliza Archer, published on the Journal of the National Cryptozoological Institute in 2015)
Both in legend and historical records, the figure of the mermaid is present, either as a legend or as a historical account. Sea and river mermaids are the most commonly known types, but there is little scientific input on other, less common, kinds of mermaid.
[…] With this work, we intend to bring attention to the most uncommon species of mermaid across the world and the dangers they entail. The aim of this article is merely communication and information and it does not constitute a safe guide to deal with or study mermaids.
Groundwater mermaids
Just like most underground animals, groundwater mermaids are blind. There are no records that allow us to know if they have any kind of echolocation system.
Their method of hunting involves floating in the dark and waiting for ripples and waves in the still water that might indicate the presence of prey.
Their main source of sustenance is the last breaths of oxygen in cave diver’s tanks. They have, nevertheless, been reported to survive for years without any intake. To date, at least twenty deaths have been attributed to groundwater mermaids, mostly in North America and Eastern Europe.
They sport bioluminescent specks on their skin, used to lure prey towards them. Divers are advised to not follow any light other than their flashlight, and to use uncommon light colors such as red.
When enraged they have been known to cause earthquakes (Shanghai, 1876), poison the water supply (Maysville, 1985), and sink small towns into the ground (Villalegre, 1923).
Swimming pool mermaids
In 1984 18 year-old Rachel was declared dead after drowning in her family’s swimming pool in Santa Monica, CA. A week later, her family reported seeing her swimming at night and trying to lure her younger sister into the water. The family moved a month later to another state, and the house was demolished. There are no more records on this incident.
In 1995, 7 women between the ages of 17 and 21 went missing and 10 men between the ages of 17 and 23 were found dead in a backyard on the outskirts of Fort Lauderdale, FL. They had attended a pool party during the night, and the bodies of the 10 young men were found in the morning. Investigators reported that the men had died from acute airborne chlorine poisoning, higher than the levels found in the pool. The women were never found.
Between 1980 and 2005, at least three water parks across the globe closed with no discernible reason. Other than some reports of accidents and disappearances, we cannot find a proper link between this and the presence of pool mermaids, but it is worth mentioning.
Reports describe this species as very pale, with thinning hair and bleached, cracked skin. These are a type of Singers and are attracted by loud music. We can deduce by the events in Fort Lauderdale in 1995 that they are capable of increasing and decreasing the chlorine content of a swimming pool, and surviving high levels of it.
We want to remind our readers that the events mentioned are the only recorded events of swimming pool mermaids, and that the probabilities of encountering one are very small as their numbers seem scarce.
Blood mermaids
It is extremely difficult to find any records on this species of mermaids and it is still debated if they are just fiction or if they are an actual, if rare kind of mermaid.
In the 1787 version of Bluebeard written by Anne-Marie Benoit, the murderer’s last wife finds the room where the previous wives’ corpses are. This room is described as “[…] covered in blood, so deep that Vivienne could sink her foot in it and she would still not touch the stone floor. […] Shaken by the sight, she dropped the golden key, which sunk straight to the bottom. Frantically, the young girl tried to reach for it, but she was not able to find it. She fell to her knees and started crying, for surely now her husband would find out she had stepped in the forbidden room. But suddenly, a bloody arm emerged from the blood, and handed her key, now red rather than golden. The face of a dark haired woman appeared too, staring silently at her. Several other women emerged from the blood, and started approaching the first one. Terrified, Vivienne grabbed the key and ran away from the room, locking it behind her.”
A paper written by Lord Thomas Crawford in 1886 describes in great detail this species of mermaid. He describes them as inhabiting only places where extreme bloodshed has happened, and only surviving as long as their blood supply does not run out. They only seem to inhabit it, and are never observed to consume it. They are described as being deathly pale and sporting dark scales. After Thomas Crawford’s death, many of the pages of his work were lost, along with his methods. Without any explanation of how he managed to perform such an extensive investigation, his work has been mostly considered as speculative or outright fiction.
The subject of whether Elizabeth Báthory de Ecsed could have been a historical blood mermaid, has been debated for decades. Thomas Crawford addresses it in his paper, indicating that she was, in fact, not one and that “she is another kind of creature altogether.”

✯ - ok but listen…space mermaids
mermaids swimming in clouds of gas and dust in outer space, calling the nebulas their home
mermaids with skin and tails that glitter as if the stars are embedded right into them. Tails the colours of the nebulas themselves. Specks of stardust tangled in their hair as dark as night itself
mermaids migrating with the star whales and having perfected their song
mermaids who lure spaceships into asteroid fields
space mermaids
I want deep sea mermaids. Bioluminescent lights and angler fish antennae. Mermaids the size of gulper eels with mouths full of needle teeth and blind white eyes. Skin so clear you can see the bones inside.
I want jellyfish mermaids with skirts of delicate tentacles, and translucent colors, that seem to drift harmlessly but toxic and deadly. Immortal and ancient mermaids. Fringe on their thin long arms that floats around them.
I want coral reef mermaids with fins like waving seaweed and coral like protrusions on their faces to hide. In every color of the rainbow, but jaws that can jet forward to snap up prey and hair that glows and stings like anemones.
I want freaky, dangerous, amazing mermaids that men tremble to behold.
everytime I hear about children of the corn I think about the guy I met at comic con who actually lived in the town they filmed that movie at, and on the farm where they filmed in the corn. he was a teenager at the time and him and his friends would get drunk on moonshine and rustle the corn and let the air out of the tires of the production team’s trailers and shit. and now there’s Wikipedia pages about how the children of the corn set was haunted and they thought they angered god but it was really just drunk hillbillies
I don’t like adding to posts but I also have a funny story like this, so I was watching the movie the Blair witch which takes place in burkettsville maryland, which to me is so funny because that is were my grandfather lives and the town is literally just old people and cows with their main street consisting of a post office. Well anyway he told me that after it came out people were coming in like bus loads to the town to find the witch and my grandfather lives up in the Mountain area and people were up in his property trying to find the witch and it made him angry so he went out and hung up stick people and stacked rocks and it freaked the people out so they started thinking something was out there when really it was my 80 year old Italian grandpa who wanted people out of his woods.
We had ghost hunters come to a historic house in my town to film and if you think every high school kid in town respectfully stayed at home that night instead of going to fuck up that filming you’re dead wrong.
this is comforting, actually, sometimes paranormal things are just a bunch of bored people dicking around in the woods.

Road Trip by Noel Kerns
Noel Kerns is a Dallas-based photographer specializing in capturing Texas’ ghost towns, decommissioned military bases, and industrial abandonments at night. Growing up in the central Texas hill country, Kerns developed his photographic skills shooting large format black & white landscapes. The slow and deliberate nature of the large format photographic process was a perfect launching pad into the art of digitally photographing the nocturnal world.
One of the things Kerns enjoy most about photographing under a full moon are all the latent details, those things which reveal themselves only when you take the time to let the moonlight tell the story. He loves the calm and tranquility of a peaceful night scene, as well as the eerie feeling one can get when shooting an old desert ghost town under a full moon.
