eldritch \EL-drich\ , adjective:

1. Strange; unearthly; weird; eerie.

Origin:

Eldritch perhaps derives from a Middle English word meaning “fairyland,” from Middle English elf, “elf” (from Old English aelf) + riche, “kingdom” (from Old English rice).

Be creative, use the word today.

As always, be well
