The belief that supernatural forces are in the heavens and not on the earth and is full of every miracle has its roots in the right. And not always that force is good and kind to people. Dara Korniy will take you to an original and spooky world, in which the imagination of our ancestors explained all the troubles and sores by the intervention of "evil forces". You will travel through the Ukrainian lands and learn that it is nightlights that steal children's sleep, poverty and arrogant one-eyed robbery of families, and the flight attendant and woodpecker - peace of mind; make sure that the feverish sisters bring diseases and plagues, send hunger, and that a bad girl can, contrary to fate, take a person's life. You will see a huge layer of the cultural heritage of ancient Ukrainians, which may seem too gloomy. At the same time, it is instructive, because it is called not to frighten, but to warn a person against reckless actions, evil intentions, deceit and betrayal.
