Drekavac (the Screamer) Digital Painting by Danijel Matanic HD

This video was condensed from two and a half hour long digital painting session. Drekavac (the Screamer) is a creature from Slavic mythology known for its loud bawling. It was believed he comes from the souls of children who have died unbaptized. It can predict someone’s death or disease. Drekavac is scared of light and resides in cemeteries and caves. It’s a scary story that is still alive in rural parts where people can hear animals making noise in the night and attribute it to Drekavac. http://danijelmatanic.com/slavic-myths/
