But that doesn't mean we don't have superstitions or worry about things that go bump in the night. The next few episode highlight Caribbean folklore let's begin with:
"The Soucouyant"
a Caribbean folklore figure known to live a double life appearing as a woman by day but at night able to peel off her skill soar through the sky like a fire ball and suck the blood of her victims leaving them weak and drained. The legend of the Soucuyant serves as a cautionary tale and a source of fear in Caribbean folklore warning of the dangers that lurk in the darkness of night
