The legend of "Mauritanian witchcraft";
Legend has it that local prisoners will be buried everywhere after being executed. Then the prisoner's family will dig up the body again, take out a piece of the prisoner's skull and make a necklace. This skull is cursed if anyone finds this necklace.
Then, the ghost of the executed prisoner will be attached to this hanging chain for the discoverer to take home. If it goes home smoothly, then it can sleep peacefully and be reborn as a human being. If the person who picks up the chain violates its meaning or exposes its ghost identity, it will be cursed and possessed by a ghost.
