Whats the Tokoloshe ?
In Southern Africa, inhabitants have a real fear of a dwarf-like creature called the Tokoloshe. Some people won't even speak of it to keep this evil spirit from their homes.
It is often described as a horned malevolent dwarf that is half-man half-spirit. References to this mystical creature date back to before 1700. But he is also described to have many other forms like a cross between an evil zombie, poltergeist, a gremlin or animals.
The Tokoloshe as a “spirit being” can take many forms because many spirits only get given names when they are in our world and manifest.
While his appearance is unclear, his motives are not.
According to Zulu mythology, Tokoloshes are called upon by malevolent people to cause trouble for others. It is believed he was created from dead bodies of shamans or, on occasions, its simply choose to visit our world out of lust and a desire to cause mischief Only Witchdoctors (Sangoma) have the power to summon and banish a Tokoloshe.
Many people in Africa are still reluctant to discuss the Tokoloshe as many believe that even using his name will call him to you and naturally trouble will follow. In every new generation the belief in the “Other World” diminishes and fear of the Tokoloshe recedes but for many Africans today they have no doubt that he exists.
This creature causes native people in certain places to raise their beds on bricks about 3 feet above the ground so that the Tokoloshe cannot hide underneath and attack them and also. And you find this all over South Africa."
