Satanic head

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Satanic head is a ghost of Brazilian folklore.

According to legend, the Satanic head is a long-haired head which rolls on the floor, laughing. It could appear at night as a normal person. When a person gets close to it, their clothes fall off and the head falls on the floor laughing. If the head touches someone, that person would get sick and die. When it would stop in front of a house, a priest would have to give a mass against it and the residents would have to pray for nine nights, or someone in that house would die.

Even today, it is still much feared in the inner regions of Brazil. People always avoid directly speaking about it.
