THOSE WHO HAUNT THE EARTH: GHOUL
In Arabian folklore, a ghoul (ghūl) is a desert-dwelling demon that can assume the guise of an animal, usually a hyena. It is an evil spirit that robs graves and feeds on the flesh of the dead or on young children. They inhabit lonely places, especially graveyards. They also lure travelers into the desert, beguiling their victims with their beautiful singing and then devouring them.

※ M Y T H O L O G Y MEME » four shapeshifters » aswang
The aswang is a shapeshifting weredog of Filipino folklore, and one of the most feared creatures in the islands. It is hard to pinpoint any one definition of what, exactly, the aswang is, because descriptions of the beast vary from one person to another. However, stories say that the aswang is quiet, shy and elusive in its human form; at night, they transform into animals, most commonly the dog, and then feast on unborn fetuses and children. They are often portrayed as a monstrous being with wings that beat louder the further they are from their prey. Some suck the fetus out of the mother’s womb with long probiscuses; others are so thin they can hide behind a bamboo post. They often replace their victims with doppelgangers made out of banana trunks or other plant materials; the doppelgangers return to the victim’s home, where they wither and die.

MYTHS SERIES || Eris
Was the goddess of strife, discord, contention and rivalry. She was often represented specifically as the daimon of the strife of war, who haunted the battlefield and delighted in human bloodshed.
Because of Eris’ disagreeable nature she was the only goddess not to be invited to the wedding of Peleus and Thetis. When she turned up anyway, she was refused admittance and, in a rage, threw a golden apple amongst the goddesses inscribed “To the fairest.” Three goddesses laid claim it, and in their rivalry brought about the events which led to the Trojan War.
Eris was closely identified with the war-goddess Enyo. Indeed Homer uses the names interchangeably. Her Roman name was Discordia.
