Czech Legends and Mythical CreaturesThe Czech Embassy will host Czech Legends and Mythical Creatures, an evening of scares and thrills for young children, on October 15, 2024. (Book session below | RSVP required to attend.)
Ever heard of the Bogeyman, the Forest Demon, Water Goblin, Rusalka, or the Noonday Witch? Join us for a glimpse into Czech fairytales and folklore. An introduction to Czech mythical creatures will be followed by a walk, intended for children’s amusement, through the haunted forest upon the grounds of the Czech Embassy. Pondering Czech legends, adults will enjoy understanding the origins and explanations behind the most notorious, intriguing, and a few lovable, fictitious yet legendary sprites, spirits, and ghosts.
