Every culture/region has stories and myths about the things existing there. What are the ones you find the most spooky and/or interesting?

Ah I've seen this in Midsommar, thought it was completely made up. Still a shit movie

    Not especially. If we're talking horror as in scary, then yea, but it has to be more than gratuitous jumpscares. If we're talking psychological, graphic horror, which I feel is what Midsommar was trying to be, then not too much. I felt it really lacked a purpose and existed only to serve shocking visuals. I found the director's previous film (The Witch, I think?) to be way more compelling.
