    I love hearing people recant stories from childhood about “great black dogs with glowing red eyes.” It’s a part of hellhounds most people aren’t familiar with. children are more spiritually aware, and because of it, they are more vulnerable to the things that live outside of our perception. Hellhounds serve a number of roles in the spiritual realm. And while most can be seen as sinister, one particular thing about hellhounds that’s rather adorable is, they adore young children, and often will attach themselves to spiritually aware children and protect them from the more real threats in the dark.
    This isn’t exactly indicative behavior, it’s really not all that common at all, but, that just makes it that much more interesting to me.

The black dog was keeping the things in the grave yard inside the graveyard. They do that. Think Junk Yard dog. IT isn't the most glamours job but oddly enough that is a fairly important job for our own good.

    The first one was cap since he said he had a Red Bull in Europe but energy drinks are banned there

      You realize only Bang is banned right? And that’s literally only in Denmark.

      @@Froglover115 Not misinformed but confusing facts for sure; the EU does have the promotion of energy drinks in areas where people under the age of 18 primarily reside banned. So you won't see things like Redbull advertised in or around schools, playgrounds, etc. The EU has stricter health and safety practices than the USA and calls out how unhealthy energy drinks are, often. But, outside of Bang itself, energy drinks are not banned in most if not all EU countries.
