Similarly in some Caribbean Islands an evil female spirit sheds her skin leaving it in a secluded spot before flying off to seek human blood mainly from women. If one is lucky to find the spirits skin one can sprinkle salt on it and the (soucuyant) the spirit can never put on her skin thus will die. ! ! ! This is part folklore and a bit of explanations of events. Belief to be taken with a grain of salt.😳
