Beware the Rusalka

My addition to an underwater creature.



In Slavic mythology, a rusalka is a female ghost that dwells in a waterway. Upon seeing a handsome man, they will fascinate them with song and dance, mesmerising them, then lead the person away to the river floor to live with them. (Wikipedia)
