Aww, lovely. Thanks! Though I could have thought about using wiki myself. Well, my brain doesn´t work that good anymore.
... guess I need a book about Irish and Norwegian mythology.

Wow, the original Rawhead almost reminds me of Pennywise from It...pulling the children down and drowning them..."Everyone floats down here..."

I always quite liked the Hallow Ghoul. I'm not sure why. Something to do with the fact that all it wanted was the church and it was really overprotective of it. I just thought it was rather at odds with the other wych-kin. Shame they had to destory it.

Yeh, if there ever existed a nice, caring, lovely wych-kin, it´d be him. X3

I know! Plus I always thought it sad that it "thought itself alive". You know, I could never imagine myself feeling sorry for a wych-kin before I got nearer the end of the book, but it happened. If I had to ever encounter any wych-kin, I would rather it be the Hallow-Ghoul.
I quite like (if like is the correct word to use in this instance) the wight that was in the sewers. I just loved the description of it, and the picture that was built up in my mind as a result. Amazing.

I, too, enjoyed the draug most. It was such an intense little scene.
Rawhead was pretty cool, too. Cool concept, with the "don't turn around" thing.
Then, I like the word "cradlejack", not so much the cradlejacks themselves (they were kind of boring within the multitude of different wych-kin).

Oh, the Draug was really cool too. The bit where they were in complete darkness and the Draugs were there ... *Shudders* Scary stuff.

Yeah, that was pretty sweet. ;D Was the Deildegast the one that put the stones around that one woman's property and walked around it three times and then the house collapsed? ....I liked the Hallow Ghoul too! He was totally awesome... definitely nicer than some of the other ones.

Its been a while (like 2 years) since i read the book and I forgot some off the wytch-kin but I had too say the Candlejack
Think of it, they can make a whole town full of them with their fever. And ur thew only one left...you CANT tell me that dosn't at least startled u?
And the Night Mare (elderly lady/horse thing) was pretty horrific, just cuz it reminded me of my grandmother

After reading the book again, I just really enjoy the chapter where the wych-kin engulfed London. It was very cool to be able to see different types of wych-kin and see what they did. I think it was also cool that some of them weren't as deadly as others. Like the Deildegast, I guess. That woman was able to escape him. It just makes them more realistic, I think, if an average woman can escape death from one. ^_^
But I still luve the Draug. I can't not luve them! There're the first thing to scare me from a book! It was hard to turn out the lights the first night I read that...^_^

I think the one that cared me most when I read it was the Crimson Fever girl, just because you always sort of acssume you're safe when you sleep, y'know? In real life though the one that scares me most is Rawhead, my imagination already plays tricks on me, I think the idea of an invisible monster behind me was to creepy to resist...

Because of the whole Rawhead thing, I always make sure never to look behind more than twice if I think I'm being followed. I know it's silly, but books have a habit of doing that to you.

Yeah, that Rawhead thing is so creepy, but so cool at the same time! *shudder*

Yay, Chris gets a mention on Wikipedia!
Yes, I know, it wouldn't be the first time, but forgive my childish excitement
