One winged creature that still inspires fear in humans is the
bat. The Australian aborigines have a story about a race of
human-like creatures with bat wings who captured a family of
brothers. The brothers escaped and the strange dances they
had seen the bat men perform are still used in rituals today.
In Eastern Europe, bats are strongly associated with vampires,
spirits of the undead who rise at night to do harm to the living.
