Djinns
Also
known as jinns of ginii, some of these Arabian spirits
are good and others are bad.
The
evil ones enter the body through all five orifices, going
straight for the head to drive their victims mad.
The
good ones can be persuaded to grant favors and wishes.
They
are related to another band of Persian monstrosities, the
div.
The
Djinns' tendency to enter a human through the mouth or nose
has led to the precaution of covering one's mouth when yawning
or coughing and saying 'gesundheit' or 'God Bless
You' when another sneezes.
