Vyrlook
Virlook is a demonic creature in Ukrainian demonology known for its terrifying appearance and cruelty. It has a long, sinuous body and a large mouth that resembles an abyss. A weirlook can move very quickly, managing to hit its victim before it realizes what has happened. The Whirlook is said to be able to devour people in an attempt to satisfy its insatiable hunger.
There are beliefs that Virlook hunts travelers who have lost their way in the forest or near water bodies. Usually, when his presence is felt, there is a strange stillness around and the air is filled with cold, which can be a sign of approaching danger.
There are several interesting ways to protect yourself from Whirlook. First, it is important not to wander in the forest unnecessarily, especially at sunset. It is believed that holy water and a holy image can protect against this creature. Folks were also advised to carry charms such as a red thread or small dolls made of natural materials to scare away the Whirlook and protect oneself from its evil influence.
