Description

"In Cyprus we have baptised them with the names: kalikantzaroi, kalikantziaroi, skalapountaroi, sklaopountaroi, planitarioi, karampaouli, karkantzelloi, kourkountzelloi, toulouppia, makromesites and others."

On the day of the Epiphany, late in the afternoon, we will gather with friends and strangers, to share stories about the kalikanjiaroi goblins, by folk writers, scientists and simple people, as heard and written down by Hambis Tsaggaris in his double volume book "Kalikanjiaroi and the game."
