Surma (Finnish mythology) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Surma (Finnish mythology)
Surma is a character in the Finnish folklore of Kalevala. Surma is a terrible beast, embodies sudden, violent death and guards the gates of the Tuonela to prevent escape. It is often described as being a large dog with a snake-tail and can turn people into stone (with a stare). An often-used Finnish metaphor is ''surman suuhun'' "into Surma's mouth", as if the victim was mauled to death by Surma. Surma also means kill, or specifically ''a kill'' and the Finnish verb 'surmata', ''to kill'' or ''to slay'', is derived from it.
