The Mahaha or Maha is a winter creature from Inuit folklore, it has a thin but strong human like figure with ice blue skin that's cold to the touch and long hair that appears frozen solid.
It's shirtless and barefoot, being unbothered by the cold. It always has a crazed or unnerving smile on its face. It also has long, bony fingers with long, sharp fingernails. It's preferred method of attack is Tickling ... It will tickle you to death leaving you frozen with a twisted smile on your face.(Frozen Grin or Death Smile) it roams the Arctic searching for victims, usually lone travelers.
Fortunately it's not very intelligent and can be easily tricked, if you ever encounter the Mahaha just ask it to have a drink with you at a stream or river when it bends down to drink, push it into the water and watch it be swept away by the currents.
Some believe this myth may have originated as an explanation for the expressions seen on some victims who have frozen to death.( Death Smile).
It's mostly used as a coutanary warning to prevent people from wandering off alone in the harsh arctic especially during winter.
