Marțolea is a Demonic entity in Romanian mythology who lives up in the mountains and descends on Tuesday nights to lure with his singing and punish the women caught working.
Gâlmele Întunericului is old Romanian for “The fiends of darkness”. Gâlmele Întunericului is a musical expression that combines elements from black metal and Romanian traditional folklore. Each track refers to a mythological creature from the folklore of Bucovina. They are considered malefic forces of nature, that take different forms, from maidens, to ugly old hags. These creatures are present in the deep woods, always at night. Unlucky travelers may be lured and charmed by them. Few manage to escape from the horrible things that await them. Even nowadays, these supra-natural beings have a strong influence over the lives of people, being present in many folk tales and stories in Bucovina region.
Muma Pădurii (Mother of the woods) – ugly evil hag living deep in the woods and showing no mercy to those who try to harm the forest in any way.
Fata Pădurii (Daughter of the woods) – long green hair fairy of the woods who usually charms young lads with her beauty making them unable to find their way back home.
Caii lui SânToader (Saint Toader’s Horses) – fierce hybrid monsters, half human- half horse, who wonder in spring nights and crush the infidel and snitching women in their gallop.
Samca – unholy spirit who often materializes as a monstrous spitting fire naked woman bringing disease to children and pregnant women in order to cease human life by all means.
