About this deal

Panama – In Panama, children are warned that if they are naughty, La Tulivieja will come to get them. Russia and Ukraine – Children are warned of Babay/Babayka, [44] buka, and Baba Yaga, who are said to come for them at night if they misbehave.

The tour de force ending is a real treat and readers will not sneeze at the profound silliness that abounds. Instead, it is those who can't get any love from their parents, such as orphans who never had anyone to love them in the first place, or adult men with nobody to even cling to that have a heart continuously filling with sadness that are the ones they would most likely visit. The Jersey Devil, which originated in the Pine Barrens of New Jersey in the early 18th century, was originally described as having a horse's head, bat wings, cloven hooves, and a serpent's tail. France – The French equivalent of the Bogeyman is le croque-mitaine ("the mitten-biter" or "the hand-cruncher").When not writing, she has been an actress, a cabaret singer and an electro-pop artist, performing on stage and composing songs for films and commercials.

Vietnam - In Vietnam, the Ông Ba bị, Ông kẹ or Ngáo ộp is a creature often used by adults to scare children if they disobey. Hejaz, Saudi Arabia – أمنا الغولة والدوجيرة or "Dojairah and Umna al Ghola", which means "Our mother the Monster", is used to scare children when they misbehave or walk alone outside.

Lithuania – referred to as the Baubas, an evil spirit with long lean arms, wrinkly fingers, and red eyes. A cautionary tale tells how the each-uisge persuaded seven little girls to get on its back before carrying them into the water to be devoured.

Hungary – The Hungarian equivalent of the Bogeyman is the Mumus, which is a monster-like creature, as well as the Zsákos Ember, literally meaning "a man with a sack". Cipelahq (or Chebelakw) is a dangerous bird spirit of Wabanaki folklore, used in stories to scare children into obeying their parents.The book’s layout is fun, with lots of capital letters and the author directly addressing the reader. South Korea - The "Net Bag Grandfather" (Mangtae Hal-abeoji, 망태 할아버지) is an imaginary old man employed by adults to frighten children into obedience.

Now Frank and his best friend Tiffany and her four heroic slugs must catch the creature before the villagers of Honkerty find out .Luxembourg – De béise Monni (the evil uncle), De Kropemann (the hookman), De Bö, and de schwaarze Mann (the black man) are Luxembourg's equivalents of the Bogeyman. Because of the myth’s worldwide prevalence, it is difficult to find the original source of the legends. In actuality, since they appear before those who weren't given love and are unable to heal their sadness, mothers who shower their kids in love like the ones who tell those stories won't actually have their kids snatched away.
