Two stories from Eastern Europe where we see why mythological water monsters aren't a great way to discipline your kids. On the second, if a wizard is mumbling something outside your house, you're in for a bad time unless you talk to a witch.

The creatures are the Devil's Dandy Dogs! They're not dandy, not the devil's, and they're barely dogs!

Two characters talk of how they drowned themselves. It's not graphic (literally they just say they drowned themselves), but it does exist. It's around halfway through the episode.
