©BloodyLexicon.com
The Eretica is from Russian lore and is closely related to the Eretik. They are described as appearing in the day time as an old ugly poor woman that possesses an evil eye. They are said to only appear during the spring and fall time. At night, they sleep in coffins or enter the village’s bathhouse by going down the chimney. They splash around in the water hoping to get the devil’s attention. Women become Ereticy when they sell their souls to the devil, when they die they become a vampire. They roam around as vampires shunning people away from Christianity. It is thought that one day a Eretica will give birth to the Antichrist. If one views the Eretica, death will soon follow. You can also die by looking an Eretica in their evil eye.
