Qurator's Mischievous Mondays | Haunted Heirlooms
(Edited)
Welcome to Qurator's Mischievous Mondays!
This will be a weekly competition that we will be hosting every Monday. We want to see a little more engagement and fun when it comes to some of our competitions so this will be a simpler and shorter competition. Easy to enter, but maybe not so easy to win. ;) This competition will be similar to the Monday Missions we had a long time ago, but instead of writing posts to enter we will now consider only the comments and answers on this blog as your entry to win.
Why Mischievous?
We all could use a little fun in our lives. We would even say that we deserve it, let loose a little and have a go at making everyone laugh or think a little, even if it is a little over the top or pure silliness. Go all out and let your creative juices flow.

Hidden recipes: the secret legacy of great-great-grandmother
For generations, a recipe book has passed from mother to daughter in our family, a legacy that traces back to the time of my great-great-grandmother. On its worn brown leather cover, there is a hand-carved mark, now nearly faded, that represents our family tree. At first glance, it seems like just an old book, filled with traditional recipes and handwritten notes.
But there is much more here than typical dishes.
One Halloween night, during our pagan festival of Samhain, I accidentally discovered that some of its pages were different – as if certain ingredients and instructions revealed subtle enchantments that evoke protection, luck, or even deep emotions.
Only on this night, when the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead grows thin, allowing spirits to cross into our realm, do these special recipes shine; the words shift and almost dance, revealing mysteries and secret powers that only those who share the blood of its creator can decipher.
With each generation, the book grows stronger, bearing the intentions and secrets of all the women who have used it.
I also missed those recipé book that my Grandmother gave to me, but I forgot where I placed the recipé. I wish I could find it.
Heirlooms
Mugs are some of the important things that can be used for drinks just luke coffees, water, hardrinks or even soft drinks. Every Halloween, our tradition is to cooked different kinds of dish and we've put it in the altar. This two mugs was given to my Great Great Grandmother. I totally imagined how many years this two mugs had. Well, I must consider this as an antique and it really needs to take care. Even if this things are very old, we still used it until today and in fact this is my Favorite mug for coffee.
This things was been pass by many Generations, From my Great great Grandmother, to my Grandmother to my Parents. Every halloween, this two mugs are been displayed at the altar filled with water or softdrinks together with the food we served for the altar in celebration of the halloween. The mugs are designed with an engraved heart and a brown shinny color to make it more attractive. This is the only things we have here given to our Great Grandmother.
It happened twice.
Something strange happens and I can't tell the pattern.
Every now and then a small piece of jewelry is found in my room. It's in the shape of a chain. I don't wear jewelry. I don't have maids. When I'm cleaning the house, I find these things and I know they weren't there because I clean my house often.
I used to think it was some kind of witchcraft.
Now I'm more concerned about how things get in.
It's a true story.
It is really interesting read it Sir. It is good that you don't touch or hold it. 😁
A CURSE OF GENERATIONS
In a very distant past, ancient generations of my family hunted evil tirelessly. On a fateful Halloween night, taking advantage of the forces of darkness and the earthly openings to the underworld, a witch cast a spell cursing and depriving my lineage of walking through Halloween nights, granting evil beings a day among the living, free from any and all danger. After turning 15, on this special date, Halloween, we are struck by an unrelenting thirst for blood, our most primitive desires surface when we see any type of human or animal life. We have searched for a cure for generations, but nothing has been found so far. The only palliative we have for this situation is a cloak blessed by Buddhist monks. This cloak is passed down from generation to generation, preventing the curse from affecting our emotions. The cloak, when used by just one individual, is very effective; however, it needed to be divided into four parts, weakening part of its power. Its effectiveness was reduced, requiring its wearer to hold on tightly and resist the curse's wishes. If the family continues to grow unchecked and we continue to divide the cloak, it is possible that we will be the problem of the next Halloween.
