Leshy, like many Slavic "demons / monsters" is not clearly evil. Many creatures from Slavic mythology could be a threat to people and be helpful at the same time, it all depends on people's behavior. The ancient Slavs had a different view of the evil and the good. They knew that these features are in every person and in everything that surrounds us. This approach was reflected in their beliefs
And on its own it is considered a psychological condition in the people who know of it. Native Canadians who would commit atrocious acts could descend into a form of psychosis where in they actually believed that they were possessed by a Wendigo. I am in Vermont, we have the Abenaki on the Quebec border and there are stories from the 1700s regarding natives who had this affliction I mention.

Rakshas is a sort of genus which has many subspecies of monsters in them. They don't have any distinct characteristic apart from being evil. Edit: mfs calm down I was just telling that there is no distinct appearance for a 'rakshas'. Like there is no said criteria for an organism to be called a 'rakshas'. I didn't say the video was wrong, I was just adding info.
In Indonesia we have a lot of folklore! Like: Pocong: a spirit of a body that hasn’t been buried for 11+ hours Nenek gayung: a grandma that also use a gayung as a weapon Kuyang: only a human head no body but organs hangs under the head, it is know in Kalimantan, it is basically a woman that uses black magic Kuntilanak: a woman that was mother that dies cause of depression of the cause of his husband left him, so kuntilanak will capture kids because she drowns her own kid because of depression That is all!

Leszy/Leshy isn't even a "monster", he's a protective forest spirit that will not harm you if you don't mean any harm to the woods. Orcus is a (originally) Etruscan and (later too) Roman god of the underworld and a punisher of broken oaths.
Chyba nie znasz znaczenia słowa "monster" w angielskim. To nie oznacza od razu czegoś negatywnego, tylko po prostu dziwne stworzenie etc. "Demon" jest słowem o zabarwieniu negatywnym. Swoją drogą np lew teoretycznie też nie zaatakuje cię jeśli czegoś mu nie zrobisz, a nawet można się z nim zaprzyjaźnić i trzymać jako zwierzątko. Ale jest stworzeniem dzikim i niebezpiecznym, bo cały czas ryzyko takie występuje. To samo z leszym. Na miano "demon" również zasługuje. Btw jest inny komentarz w którym ktoś napisał z grubsza to samo więc nie wiem jaki cel miał twój
It’s interesting to see that in any part of the world we have different kind/interpretation of “monster”, and yet to a certain point they have similarities with each other.
imo most of them are not creatures but disguises in scoobydoo style. some freak would put mask and pillage people at night and suddenly it becomes a folkloric creature
I like how every monster is based on local factors affecting each particular culture. Like eastern cultures depict their monsters as mystical beings with different colors and supernatural powers, having average built; While western or tundra based regions depict monsters as some beings who reside in forest and hunt during the nights without any magical prowess and relying on brute strength resembling supersized human-animal mix breed.
Inaccuracy: Zhu Bajie is described as a “demon,” but he’s got his own unique backstory as one of the *protagonists* of Journey to the West. You see, Zhu Bajie was once a good-looking and rather high-ranking official in Heaven. One day, the guy got drunk and molested *Chang’e*, who was kind of a big shot in Heaven. The offense was enough to get Bajie banished from Heaven and was given a hideous, pig-like appearance. He is given a chance at redemption by the bodhisattva Guanyin. She tells him that he must protect and aid Tang Sanzang on his titular journey to the West.
As a kid, I liked how Xena: Warrior Princess retold "Grendel's" story. It was so good, in fact, that it could actually be added to Grendel's original story w/ little to no real issues. It both expands & expounds upon the original tale.
Bro in hindi(India's language) you can say ,the synonyms of demon/monster is rakhsas/asur . And I have never seen a demon like him in my entire life in Indian mythology 🤷
Yeah rakshash in hindu mythology just mean an evil creature/monster..... It can be a human form or creature..... But the most powerful rakshashs were generally powerfull warriors that tried to fight gods.... So they wore full armour on body and head..... So he was half correct and half wrong......
@@mr.proton1637 for all countries he gave a particular demon's name but for India he told what we call demon in India. Means you can say the synonyms of demon is Rakhsas in our language
They got their own jurisdiction area. It is known in my place that curses will cease to function if you travel oversea because you are not in the caster's area. I never heard of a universal source of power that ignore this localisation rule.
In Vietnam, we have something called "Thuồng Luồng" ( a kind of Sea Serpent ). It is described as a humongous hideous fierce eel which loves to hunt and eat people.
Behemoth in Hebrew just means “animals”. It appears in one place poetically as a huge beast, and there are a few parables about it, but imagine it more like a bull than Predator or whatever that is. It’s also not like a thing we tell stories about or anything scary. It’s just a cryptic detail in Job.
6:30 according to a story, tepegöz is a child of a man and a fairy and nobody wants him so a man takes him in who also has kids (one of them named Basat who was taken care of by lions as an infant).As he grows up and becomes violent, people want Tepegöz dead but his fairy mother gives him a ring that protects him against arrows and swords so people couldn’t hurt him.He demands things including humans to eat and people sacrifice themselves one by one. One day Basat has had enough of this because Tepegöz killed his brother too. Basat goes into the forest and stabs him in the eye with a very hot iron. That was a summary from one of the stories. Some says Tepegöz only wanted love but nobody loved him cause he was ugly so he decided to eat them all.
In the tale of Tepegoz Bir Dede Korkut (Korkut Ata); A shepherd's, fairy-born monster with a body that the sword doesn't cut, the arrow can't pierce, that can only be harmed by the eye. He is killed by the hero named Basat. It is a creature resembling a Cyclops.
In Hindu mythology, Raksha literally means monster. 4 groups of humanoid sentient-sapient beings are categorised. Others too exist like Vanars (like Neanderthals). But, I'm mentioning the main 4s. 1. Devas. They have divinity and most powerful. They're demigods. Elementary gods. 2. Asuras. They're the counterpart of Devas. They lack divinity but are very intelligent and strong. They're often depicted fighting with Devas to conquer swarglok (the abode of Devas) 3. Humans. No explanation needed. 4. Rakshas. They're the Lowest beings and don't have morality or much intelligence. For ex- Evil Spirits of the jungle, basically monsters etc.
nah, Monsters in stories are often used as a fearmongering tools to keep a culture alive.. for example, monsters hunts down lost people or lost wanderer in night or etc, because the norm encourage you to not go wandering in night.. Stories are truer than the truth
@@bcjmythical9576 do you know that that in ancient Indian texts, such as Valmiki's Ramayana, the inhabitants of pre-Hindu Indonesia is called rakshasa? Even the texts of Indonesian Hindu kingdoms about Aji Saka mentions that before Hinduism was brought by Aji Saka to Indonesia only rakshasas and evil spirits inhabited the place. This showed an ancient demonization/dehumanization of Indonesian people by the Indians, if not outright racism. No wonder why the Hindus glorified Aji Saka so much, despite of the content of the story that is basically invasion and colonization.
Tikbalang is actually a friendly creature -They only attack those who steel and trespass on there territory -They have the ability to transform to human form

the minotaur technically is minoan, a lost culture that was independent back then on the island of crete, it is theorized that the greeks thought the bull riding images depict not as bull riding but a monster.
i don't think it's fair to say that the minotaur was minoan. True, that is where the greek legends say he lived, but that's the thing, those were GREEK legends. I don't recall there being any proof of a minotaur like creature in any artefacts found on the island of crete itself.
@@meep3035 Yes and no. It’s a bit like saying the roman empire was the ancestors of the united states, geography aside. Greeks adapted minoan ideas, but greeks =/= minoan.

Es ist auch absoluter Schwachsinn... erstens handelt es sich um die englische Übersetzung von Schrat bzw. Schraz, zweitens würde ich diese nicht als wirkliche Monster bezeichnen, eher als regionale Waldgeister. Ich behaupte mal, dass es in der deutschen Mythologie keine vergleichbaren humanen Fabelwesen in Übergröße, außer Riesen (irrelevant für das Mittelalter) gab, fast alle Wesen haben Zauberkräfte bzw. haben einen direkten Draht zu Gestirnen oder Jahrestagen. In Mitteleuropa kommt der Wassermann und das Wasserweib in Frage, vor allem in Böhmen und an der Donau. Am ehesten ist der Werwolf repräsentativ für Deutschland, dabei handelt es sich zwar um ein im gesamten indo-europäischen Raum verbreitetes Fabelwesen, für den deutschen Sprachraum war er aber besonders relevant. Krampus bzw. Berchten sind Dämonen bzw. Geister, die zählen auch nicht wirklich. Hier geht es aber um Repräsentanten für Kulturräume.
Zhu Bajie is very adorable for Chinese. He used to be a general of the God Realm. One day, he was demoted to a monster because he was drunk and molested Chang'e. Later, influenced by the Tang monk, he followed him to Western Regions to obtain Buddhist scriptures. He is liked by many people because of his funny personality.
Bugbear... German? Wait a minute. I am German. I have never heard of a bugbear as a German creature or something that looks like the thing in the video. The English Wikipedia translates the bugbear as a goblin, which is certainly something different and also common in other European cultures, the German Wikipedia translates it to a "Schrat" a.k.a. "Waldschrat". The last one is better described as a forest ghost, which brings nightmares and looks like a very old man. Imagine the character Radagast from Lord of the rings and you have the picture of a "Waldschrat". But that thing in the video is certainly something a modern artist came up with. Anybody who is watching this video. Don't take this "eductation" too serious. It's bad.
Yeah, the bugbear surprised me as well. At first, I thought that they meant Kobolds but the description didn't fit them at all. Maybe Nachtkrapp would fit the bill? They also got Leshy and Rakshasa wrong.
I'm a Hindu and I wanna say that Rakshasa is not a "Demon". Rakshasa is word used to describe " One with demonic mindset" or "Synonym of word Demon". It is same as someone saying that "Demon" is a type of Rakshas in English Culture.
'Wendigo' comes from my culture - the Anishinaabe (Ojibway) as well as other Algonquin peoples. It is pronounced "ween-dig-oh" and is a giant winter cannibal monster/spirit in our legends.
Not everyone in the west believes the existence of supernatural beings or invincible creatures. So, most of them will say all of this monsters as a mythological creature based on local folklores since it is unscientific to science.
Halah, itu yg di ceritakan org jmn dahulu dan turun temurun, padahal sosok itu tidak ada tapi di adaadakan makanya iblis menyukai/meniru sosok tersebut. itu hanya dongeng agar anak kecil tidak keluar malam, sama seperti jepit kuku malam malam katanya bakalan ada hantu tapi nyatanya orang tua dulu melarang karna takut jari kukunya berdarah. Jin itu di bagi jadi 2, jin baik dan jin jahat, jin jahat di sebut iblis nah setan itu adalah kata lain dari sifatnya iblis setan itu di bagi jadi 2 dari keturunan jin dan manusia, mereka itu hanya meggoda kita makanya hawa nafsu kita harus di jaga dgn iman, mereka tidak dapat mebunuh kita takdir sudah di tetapkan tuhan, Tapi itu tergantung kalian sih mau percaya atau enggak. Berbeda beda tapi tetap satu🇲🇨
I don't think Zhu Bajie is a very good example. Although people know him from “Journey to the West”, he is probably not as scary as other Chinese monsters, including hundreds of which you can see in “The Classic of Mountains and Seas”.

It was Tezcatlipoca's method of testing the bravery of the people who walked alone at night, who had to remove the monster's heart to be rewarded.

Inaccuracy: Zhu Bajie is described as a “demon,” but he’s got his own unique backstory as one of the *protagonists* of Journey to the West. You see, Zhu Bajie was once a good-looking and rather high-ranking official in Heaven. One day, the guy got drunk and molested *Chang’e*, who was kind of a big shot in Heaven. The offense was enough to get Bajie banished from Heaven and was given a hideous, pig-like appearance. He is given a chance at redemption by the bodhisattva Guanyin. She tells him that he must protect and aid Tang Sanzang on his titular journey to the West.

6:30 according to a story, tepegöz is a child of a man and a fairy and nobody wants him so a man takes him in who also has kids (one of them named Basat who was taken care of by lions as an infant).As he grows up and becomes violent, people want Tepegöz dead but his fairy mother gives him a ring that protects him against arrows and swords so people couldn’t hurt him.He demands things including humans to eat and people sacrifice themselves one by one. One day Basat has had enough of this because Tepegöz killed his brother too. Basat goes into the forest and stabs him in the eye with a very hot iron. That was a summary from one of the stories. Some says Tepegöz only wanted love but nobody loved him cause he was ugly so he decided to eat them all.

In Hindu mythology, Raksha literally means monster.
4 groups of humanoid sentient-sapient beings are categorised. Others too exist like Vanars (like Neanderthals). But, I'm mentioning the main 4s.
1. Devas. They have divinity and most powerful. They're demigods. Elementary gods.
2. Asuras. They're the counterpart of Devas. They lack divinity but are very intelligent and strong. They're often depicted fighting with Devas to conquer swarglok (the abode of Devas)
3. Humans. No explanation needed.
4. Rakshas. They're the Lowest beings and don't have morality or much intelligence. For ex- Evil Spirits of the jungle, basically monsters etc.

Es ist auch absoluter Schwachsinn... erstens handelt es sich um die englische Übersetzung von Schrat bzw. Schraz, zweitens würde ich diese nicht als wirkliche Monster bezeichnen, eher als regionale Waldgeister. Ich behaupte mal, dass es in der deutschen Mythologie keine vergleichbaren humanen Fabelwesen in Übergröße, außer Riesen (irrelevant für das Mittelalter) gab, fast alle Wesen haben Zauberkräfte bzw. haben einen direkten Draht zu Gestirnen oder Jahrestagen. In Mitteleuropa kommt der Wassermann und das Wasserweib in Frage, vor allem in Böhmen und an der Donau. Am ehesten ist der Werwolf repräsentativ für Deutschland, dabei handelt es sich zwar um ein im gesamten indo-europäischen Raum verbreitetes Fabelwesen, für den deutschen Sprachraum war er aber besonders relevant. Krampus bzw. Berchten sind Dämonen bzw. Geister, die zählen auch nicht wirklich. Hier geht es aber um Repräsentanten für Kulturräume.

Bugbear... German? Wait a minute. I am German. I have never heard of a bugbear as a German creature or something that looks like the thing in the video. The English Wikipedia translates the bugbear as a goblin, which is certainly something different and also common in other European cultures, the German Wikipedia translates it to a "Schrat" a.k.a. "Waldschrat". The last one is better described as a forest ghost, which brings nightmares and looks like a very old man. Imagine the character Radagast from Lord of the rings and you have the picture of a "Waldschrat". But that thing in the video is certainly something a modern artist came up with.
