Epésugárzó

Epésugárzó is a Hungarian term that translates to "poison ray" or "venom ray" in English. It generally refers to a mythical creature or entity characterized by its ability to emit a harmful or poisonous beam or radiation. While not a common figure in widely known folklore, the concept appears in some regional or less documented tales, often associated with dark magic or malevolent spirits. These beings are typically depicted as formidable foes, their primary weapon being this invisible or visible destructive force. The exact nature of the "ray" can vary depending on the specific story, sometimes described as a visible beam of light, other times as an unseen aura or essence that causes decay, illness, or death upon contact. The lore surrounding Epésugárzó often emphasizes the difficulty in defending against such an attack, as it bypasses conventional defenses and strikes directly at the victim's vitality. Instances of this term might be found in localized ghost stories, ancient manuscripts, or as a descriptive element for an antagonist in fictional works drawing inspiration from Hungarian mythology. Its presence suggests a fear of unseen dangers and the power of concentrated negative energy.
