Schilalyi

Schilalyi

ORIGIN:

Romani (Transylvania)

Schilalyi, the cold one, is the fifth child of Ana, Queen of the Keshalyi, and the king of the Loçolico. Their son Melalo advises the king to spit on a mouse and then cook it into soup for Ana. Unsurprisingly, she gets sick. Perhaps more surprisingly, she conceives: Schilalyi, their new child, emerges from her mouth in the form of a white mouse with lots of tiny feet. Like the rest of the siblings, Schilalyi is a disease spirit. When Schilalyi creeps over you with all those little feet, the result is chills or illnesses characterized by the sensation of being cold.
