Some babies and toddlers in parts of West Africa are considered spirit children - non-humans sent from the forest to cause misfortune and destroy the family. Aaron Denham offers a nuanced ethnographic study of this phenomenon in Northern Ghana that examines both the motivations of the families and the structural factors that lead to infanticide.
