Introduction
 Who of us doesn’t like listening to stories connected
with the region we live in.
 The following project
describes 6 basic creatures.
Scope
 In our presentation we would like to tell something
about "Monsters in Treasurer's Kingdom", but
particularly we'd like to tell about how they look like
and what terrible things they do. The six of the most
popular are:
Utopek
 Also known as Utopiec or Utopelec. It lives in
ponds and rivers. It pulls people into water. Its skin
is green and blue. It isn't cruel all the time, but it
sometimes does jokes.
Bebok
 A creature who has large hooves and a big mouth
with sharp teeth. It catches children into a bag. It
lives in households.
Podciep
 One of the most frightening Silesian monsters. It
looks like a baby with disproportionately big head. It
sneaks homes, kidnaps babies and leaves them in
forests.
Meduzyna
 A creature in a body of a beautiful woman who was
killed because of neglecting the household duties,
her husband and children.
Strziga
 Silesian kind of witch, also called Heksa, she doesn't
fly on a broom but she flies on a butter barrel.
Skarbnik
 It has lived in the Silesian basements for ages in a
form of various characters: an old man or a light on a
wall. It often wants a half of miner's breakfast.
Opinion about monsters
 I must admit I have listened with great interest to the
scaring stories connected with Silesian frightening
creatures.
 As for myself I have never met any of them in spite of
having lived in that region of Poland since I was born.
 I am sure nobody has seen them as well but the
history likes to be repeated over and over again.
 For sure all the phenomena
were explained and proved by
scientists but the legend has
been living up to now like
many other legends.
 Thanks to this presentation you can learn about
many interesting things about the monsters, what
they do, what they are like and much more. For sure
everybody knows some of them and everyone has
an idea how they look like. Maybe some of them
look exactly like you imagine them? Now you can
expand your knowledge and learn much more. It's
cool because maybe you will meet one of them one
day? ;)
