Every country seems to have an impish, creature who is the cause of numerous household mishaps.
The town of Calitri in Italy is no exception. It has its very own gremlin, an ugly little monster whose only purpose is to cause misfortunes, accidents and misery. This gremlin from Calitri is called scazzamauriegghio. Scazzamauriegghio enters the home in a variety of forms, such as a dog, a stray chicken, a cat. Once inside the home, he finds a dark, out of the way corner of the house and waits for the perfect moment to wreck havoc on the household.
