Myomancy

Myomancy was a form of ceremonial magic involving mice.

In the 1470s, while being held prisoner by the King of Hungary, Vlad III practiced a form of myomancy which involved killing and impaling mice in particular patterns. (PROSE: The Book of the War [+]Loading...["The Book of the War (novel)"])

  • In the real world, myomancy is the reading of omens from the behaviour of rodents.
