Day 26/31: "Boo Hag"
In the culture of Gullah, there is these entity known as a Boo Hag. Vampire like creatures that use evil magic to drain the life out of their victims and steal away their skin to move to the living without any form of suspicions. According to the legend, Boo Hags are formed by those who’ve passed but were evil in living. They look like creatures with no skin, flowey white hair and cat-like eyes; hence the reason why they steal skins of their victims so to look normal and find their next victim…
There are ways to avoid being the Boo Hags next victim. One way is to put a broom by your door so that if they were to come, they would get distracted and count the bristles of the broom and (depending what type of broom you have and how many you put there) eventually will die from the sunlight if they don’t come back to their skin in time. Another method is painting the frames of your doors and windows indigo blue. Stories and research claim that the color is like a repellent to these evil entities. Speaking of repellent, another way is to throw salt at the Boo Hag, for a Boo Hag that is salted could no longer return to it’s skin…
So whenever you feel tired or low on energy. Then theres a good chance that a boo hag has latched onto you…

Boo Hags are demons that feed on a human's breath. The Hags have no skin, so they are the color of muscles. To hide among living people. they'll wear someone's skin like a suit until it wears out and they need to trade it in. Speaking of trade-ins, the Hags are constantly in need of a ride. They absorb breath by "riding" a victim but sitting on their chest and sucking in their breath. They usually try not to kill the victim so that they can feed off of them again, but if they need a new suit, they need a new suit. Surviving victims of the Boo Hag have deep, dream-filled sleep and the Boo Hag dips to get back to their current skin suit before dawn or be forever trapped without it. Don't let the hag ride ya!

How To Stop A Boo Hag From Riding You Or Your Family. Hoodoo Working.
Tumblr media
In this post I'll be talking on Boo Hags and giving a working to capture one from writing you are a family member.
But before I do let's talk on what they actually are.
Where Did The Story Come From? Boo Hag is rooted in African American folklore, mostly by the Gullah-Geechee communities along low country. Now one origin of the Boo Hag is traced back to West African folklore and there is a creature known as the “Adze” or “Ade” a Adze.
What Are They? Boo hags are spirits, their similar to vampires that may be undead beings or spirits that feed off of living humans by sitting on their victims chest and sucking the energy or life sustenance from a person's breath, instead of their blood. I think their spirits of dead witches who continue to do bad after death, over time they change into this enity. Boo Hags can also give a person the medical condition known as "Sleep Paralysis"
You may wake up with strange scratches, recurring nightmares, exhaustion and illness as a result. All together, these symptoms will lead to mental illness or death
How To They Get In My House? They can easily enter your house through very small openings like a window, or a crack in a wall, key holes etc.
Fortunately, there are some warning signs that a Boo Hag may be close by. Some dogs are able to sense their presence and will start howling or barking. Crows will also recognize them. The air will be hot and damp, smell of rot and decay can happen. Now I never experienced one my self but if you have these signs then It could be a hag.
How Can One Hope To Stop Such Evil? For all of the Boo Hag’s power, there are a number of ways to keep her at bay.
Story goes that they obsessive-compulsive disorder and feels compelled to count the actions any small objects. Scattering sesame seeds around the bed will accomplish this as well can help you escape.
Who knows how fast they count but they do like to count. Sun light can destroy her.
Fake Hoodoo. I see this a lot, Boo Hag, hates the smell of asafoetida. This plaint is native to places like Turkmenistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Uzbekistan so understand how did the African Americans use this in the south. DON'T BYE.
WORKING: To Catch a Boo Hags.
Get yourself a blue bottle. Haunt blue and a plain white candle. (You can bye these bottles cheap online or use a bud platinum bottle or a milk of magnesia bottle)
Clean the bottle out. Then turn the bottle on its side and place it by the door of the room or where you believe the hag might be coming in at.
Next place mustered seeds under the bed making a line from the bed all the way to the bottle, then around the bottle. (You can add a pinch of salt to it a well.
Light your white candle in the back behind the bottle. Pray the 23rd Psalms.
If and when the candle start making hussing or crackling sounds you have it trapped in the bottle. Take your cap and close the bottle up take it out side and dispose of it. The sun will destroy it.

Check out the first four pages from The Boo Hag, the first story in Tarheel Tales of Terror Issue #1: Desecrated Marriage! Nothing too alarming this early in the tale, but if this whets your appetite for more, you can get copies of Issue #1 as well as our upcoming second issue by backing our Kickstarter!
We still have 5 slots available at our This Story Is About YOU tier, where you can have yourself, a loved one, or a pet immortalized in the comic as a background character! There are four different cameos from the first Kickstarter campaign in the pages above- can you tell who?

Bottle Trees & How To Make One & How To Know If You Cought One?
Tumblr media
Have you ever been driving through Louisiana, or any other southern states, and noticed a tree with colored bottles either hanging from it or stuck onto their branches? Natives of Africa have hung hand-blown glass on huts and trees to ward off evil spirits ( negative energy) since the ninth century, and maybe even earlier.
The Legend is told that the spirits are attracted to the sparkling color of the bottles, blue ones seemingly more enticing to spirits. The moaning sound that the bottles make by the wind is proof that a spirit ( Negative Spirit Energy) is trapped within.
Where Did Bottle Trees Originate:
Bottle trees originated in the Congo of West Africa and date back to at least the ninth century. Very soon after European colonizers noticed the practice in Africa, bottle trees were also observed in the Caribbean in Black communities comprised of people brought there from West Africa via the trans-Atlantic slave trade. Bottle Trees are traditional for a African Diasporic religion or practice like voodoo or hoodoo.
These early accounts the bottle trees were used to ward off a variety of dangers that could destroy a home, such as thieves, evil spells and bad spirits. If you hung bones and bottles in your mango tree, for instance, thieves wouldn't touch the fruit. Basically seeing the tree like this and not knowing what it is we're scared a person off the property.
Tumblr media
Hoodoo and the Tradition of Bottle Trees:
Bottle trees are a practice in Hoodoo. The idea behind bottle trees in the Hoodoo tradition is that the world is full of marauding spirits, usually up to no good. In the south of of Louisiana where I'm at, we believe they can enter your house if you're not careful, wreaking havoc — However, these evil spirits are very interested in spangly glass bottles. If you hang them on trees outside your house, the spirits will check the bottle out and become trapped inside, and in the morning when the sun comes up, they will be destroyed in the bottle by the sunlight.
If you're not sure the light of day has really done its job, you can cork the bottle, take it to the river and throw it in the water. A bad spirit (Haint) has no chance against the river because, according to legend, they absolutely hate water. (In mist religions dark energies and or spirits don't like nor can cross running water)
What Are Haunts? Now you herd me mentioned the world Haint. A haint is a restless ghost (spirit) who has not left the world, but has remained behind to haunt the living with trickery that is most often harmless, but there are some that can be more sinister in nature. Due to the vengeful and tricky its intentions of haunts, warding them off is understandably a priority. Hoodoo, sometimes referred to as rootwork, conjure or even lowcountry voodoo, would offer protection from evil. But at night, the boo hag would shed the skin and go looking for a victim to "ride," depleting the victim's energy or possibly even suffocating them.
Make Your Own Bottle Tree:
Turn a tree in your yard into one. The bottle should be placed upside down with the mouth of the bottle facing the trunk. You can also hang them from branches.
Where can I get a bottle? Bud Light platinum bottle is the haint blue.
Do I Need It In A Tree? No you can have in a bush well. Some also place them on the ground.
How Do I Know If I Caught One? The bottom will tip over or you can light a incense around it and if the smoke flows into the bottom you cought one.
Bottle Trees Are Used to Honor the Dead:
Bottle trees also have a special connection to the venerated dead. " The distinctive blue bottles were placed on tree limbs to capture the energy, spirit and memories of ancestors." Important and beloved relatives and community members and when they died, their tombs would be marked with large bottle trees, all sorts of vessels — bowls, cups, bottles, pots and pans — as well as knives, forks and bracelets.
How Do I Know If I Caught One?
You will here a whistle sound like the wind blowing into it.
The bottom will tip over.
You can light a incense around it and if the smoke flows into the bottom you cought one.
