DINGBELLE

Canadian Folklore
A Type of Gremlin
World War II

This is a female GREMLIN found in association with the Woman’s Division of the Canadian Armed Services during WWII. These demons were particularly adept at triggering the public address system for the disclosure of personal conversations, jamming the key mechanisms on typewriters when urgency was essential, and flipping photographs of a handsome officer from a girl’s personal bag while on a date with her Private/LAC boyfriend, or vice versa.
