In Romanian mythology, strigoi (same form singular or plural) are the evil souls of the dead rising from the tombs (or living) that transform into an animal or phantomatic apparition during the night to haunt the countryside, troubling whoever it encounters.

Strigoi are also known as "moroi" in some parts, especially rural areas. They are close relatives of the werewolves known as "pricolici" or "vârcolaci", the latest also meaning "goblin" at times.

A Vampire, Werewolf, Demon, Devil, Warlock, Evil Spirit, Undead.

Strigoii 

The most common species of vampire found in Romania, known as a "Dead Vampire" as compared with the "living" variety, the Moroii. The strigoii (feminine strigoica) will consort with the moroii, who join the ranks of their undead cousins upon death. The ways of becoming a strigoii are traditionally numerous: suicide, witchcraft, crunubak activities, perjury, death at the hand of a vampire, being the seventh son, being born with a caul, having a cat jump over one's corpse, being stared at in the womb by a vampire, or dying unmarried with an unrequited love. Addtionally, the ropes used in burial must be placed near the body and should not fall into possession of practitioner of black magic who might use them to turn a relative into a vampire. A body that is transforming into a strigoii will have its left eye open and staring. The recommended preventives against such a change includes a sickle stabbed through the heart of the corpse and the sticking of nine spindles into the ground to pierce the creature as it rises. Wine also figures in creating a powerful shield against attack. The strigoii's distinguishing features include red hair, blue eyes, and the presense of two hearts.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
