| Jinni contained in a bottle, lamp, ring, or other
trinket, capable of performing magical services when
temporarily released. Bottle Imps can bring riches and
wealth, but some accounts state that the owner of one
will be condemned to hell. The bottle is indestructible,
and if purposefully lost, it will return itself. The only
sure way to get rid of it is to sell it for half the
price one got it for. Bottle imps are found in tales from different regions of the world, especially those with an Islamic influence. Stories of it are found in Arabia, several Hebrew legends, and in Mindanao (island found in the southern Philippines). |
