Featured Article

The Mahaha is a humanoid creature that originates in Inuit mythology, legends and folklore.

The Mahaha is a raving demon-like creature that terrorizes the North American arctic. This creature is described as being a skinny strong being of the ice-blue color and cold to the touch. The creature's eyes are white and that can be seen through the lengthy hair that hangs in front of its face. This demon is unusually always grinning. The creature is barefoot and with almost no cloths, yet it is not bothered by the cold.

Although this demon is evil, the Mahaha is easily tricked. Most of the legends told about Mahaha end with it being fooled.
