https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will-o%27-the-wisp

The term "will-o'-the-wisp" comes from "wisp", a bundle of sticks or paper sometimes used as a torch, and the name "Will", thus meaning "Will of the torch". The term jack-o'-lantern (Jack of the lantern) originally referred to a will-o'-the-wisp. In the United States, they are often called "spook-lights", "ghost-lights", or "orbs" by folklorists and paranormal enthusiasts.

The movie "Brave" showed the Will-o'-the-Wisp in one of the best idea form I have ever seen so I kind of tried to reproduce that image.

When I was growing up, they were always creepy and scary creatures, but due to the "DISNEY" effect they are more benign and gentle.

Medusa

In Greek mythology, Medusa was a monster, a Gorgon, generally described as a winged human female with living venomous snakes in place of hair. Those who gazed upon her face would turn to stone.

Medusa was beheaded by the hero Perseus, who thereafter used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield. In classical antiquity the image of the head of Medusa appeared in the evil-averting device known as the Gorgoneion. (4 years and 295 days ago)
