There's a lot of Appalachian folktale in the influence of Deadhead and their lore. Seeing the devastation caused by the hurricane in cities I've been to, that I had family, that inspired me...it's heartbreaking. Like history washing away. Please share resources to help if you can.

It is unwise to speak out of turn when summoning the Devil. It is even less wise to ask the wrong question at the wrong time. #Germany#folktale#folklore#Devilhttps://www.patreon.com/posts/devil-summoning-72763428

The Boy with the Red Jacket:  From Lower Bavaria: During the Lessel night, a man and his boy went to the crossroads. He did not want to take the boy with him, but finally he relented to his son’s pleas. The boy was wearing a red jacket. When they arrived at the crossroads, the man used chalk to draw three circles around himself and his son. Suddenly, a gallows stood before them. The boy asked: “For whom is that?” “For the one with the red jacket!” was the reply, and the boy was gone. After the man had done his incantations, the Devil appeared and asked what he wanted. “What you have taken from me”, said the man. The Devil did not want to, but when the man insisted on his demand, he threw the corpse of the man’s son into the circle.  Source: Panzer, F. Bayerische Sagen und Bräuche.

Sawamura Sōjūrō II and Ōtani Hiroji III https://collections.artsmia.org/art/8200/

This print depicts a scene from a Kabuki play performed in 1768. The plot is based on a folktale about an old woman who lived in an isolated house. She kindly offers lost travelers a place to rest, but murders them in the night. Sawamura Sōjñrō II is shown playing the role of the evil old woman, who grabs the topknot of a warrior, played by Ōtani Hiroji III. With his sword unsheathed, the warrior tries to defend himself from her unexpected attack. Sōjñrō II, who was tall and graceful, did not typically play old women. Nonetheless, as described here by Shunshō with contorted arms and disheveled hair, he played the role to terrifying effect.

🍏のFolktaleは個人的に感情が表に出ないレトシャミソングだったんだけど、ヒューエデもはっきり感情が表に出ないから合いそうだなと思うなどした☺️
