Variations of any legend will be found scattered around the world. There is also evidence that there is a version of the same legend in Jamaica, Barbados etc. The soucouyant itself is a Caribbean version of the vampire. I merely stated what I knew about.
Hi Solace – I think that’s what’s interesting. Maybe some day a Caribbean anthropologist will come on and comment more about the origin of the legend. Thanks for commenting!
