Dust off your old costumes, get to online shopping and try to think about what you want to look like for what will be a Halloween event quite literally like no other. East London troublemakers Harem of No One bring you Glyabani: Southwest Asian Queer Horror ! Glyabani is a cryptid, a mythological creature, a giant or a demon that keeps appearing in Arabic, Persian and Anatolian folk tales. They have their feet in reverse, bears a lot of hair, is tall like a giant, smells horribly and appears to those who wander alone in deserts or graveyards. Scary right? On another side, they like to wear women's dresses, braid ponytails and visit children playing games to make them laugh. They also like to lick the feet of travelers who sleep by themselves until their feet becomes so thin that it starts bleeding allowing them to drink their blood until they perish. This cryptid gained cult status and nation wide fame when it was portrayed in 1976 turkish comedy movie St Kardeler, a legend of its kind for Turkey's cinema.
