This creator thought she was visiting a normal waterfall until strange figures suddenly appeared from the forest.
Standing near the water were the spirit birds of the Wait awile tribe covered in white mud and wearing terrifying bird masks. The tribe explained that the spirit birds protect the sacred waterfall from evil spirits and unwanted visitors. For hundreds of years the Wait awhile tribe has continued this terrifying tradition deep in the Highlands. Even though they no longer wear these outfits everyday, the spirit birds still appear during important rituals near the waterfall. And many visitors admit that seeing the spirit birds silently watching from the rocks feels terrifying in real life.
