I from Moruga (well meh muddah from dere and ah live down dey for a 1 or 2 years) ..
Dis talk about hickie is a big conspiracy perpertrated by the brethen of soucouyant to hide their prescence in T&T.
I know for a fact dat soucouyant is for real. She use to bite my sister (who was only 7 years old and was not getting hicke from anybody). I see fus hand de black and blue bruise. An ah sure I see a fireball one nite.
Allyuh and the remedy for hickie get side track from Kandi origina post... proof again dat the soucouyant is for real.  Hmmmm.... ah tink somebody here is did post mite be a soucouyant ore related to one.
As for MuffPuff and the Navy Blue Book ... leh me leave dat to yuh imagination
