BorokaThe Boroka is a creature that slashes people’s chests to steal the heart and liver.
It is an ordinary person that transforms at midnight as her arms begin to grow some wings and her nails become sharp. The Boroka raid people’s homes with a very frightful scream. She attacks people and slices their bodies with her nails to take the heart and liver which she brings home to eat. She gets startled whenever she hears people shouting items that she fears such as salt, vinegar, ginger and onions. |
