Folklore Spirits of Trinidad & Tobago
$61.00
Step into the mystical realm of Trinbagonian folklore with this beautifully crafted book that brings 30 legendary spirits to life like never before. From the forest-dwelling Papa Bois to the fire-haunted Soucouyant, from the mischievous Douen to the regal La Diablesse—Folklore Spirits of Trinidad & Tobago captures the essence of our most iconic ancestral tales through immersive storytelling and ultra-high-resolution photographic imagery.
This first-of-its-kind publication merges rich oral traditions with cutting-edge visual artistry. Each character is portrayed in dramatic detail, styled and photographed with cultural accuracy to honour our Afro-Caribbean, Indigenous, and European roots. The book is designed for family enjoyment, classroom exploration, and anyone who wants to reconnect with the spiritual heart of Trinidad and Tobago.
Created by cultural preservationist and photographer Richard A.J. Ramirez, this work is part storybook, part visual archive, and part love letter to the stories that shaped our identity. Perfect for collectors, educators, and curious minds—this is more than a book; it’s a cultural experience.
