Humanoid Is Not A Valid Member Of Workspace?

So I have this script inside my sword, and it seems to throw up an error when it touches anything other than a player, and I can't seem to find a way to make it still do damage to a humanoid if it touches something that doesn't contain a Humanoid

I've tried WaitForChild, but it throws up an infinite yield error

Av = 15 --Attack Value

tool = script.Parent

function tagHumanoid(humanoid,killer)

    if humanoid and killer then

        local tag = Instance.new("ObjectValue")
        tag.Name = "creator"
        tag.Value = killer
        tag.Parent = humanoid
    end

end

script.Parent.Handle.blade.Touched:connect(function(p)

local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(tool.Parent)

if script.Parent.CanDamage.Value == true then

    script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = false

    local humanoid = p:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

    p.Parent.humanoid:TakeDamage(Av)

    tagHumanoid(humanoid, plr)

    wait(1)

    script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = true

    if p.Parent.Humanoid.Health < 1 then
        print("Player Has Died")
    end

    end

end)

You dont check if what it touches is a player so if it isnt a player it trys to find a thing u would only find in a player

Av = 15 --Attack Value

tool = script.Parent

function tagHumanoid(humanoid,killer)

    if humanoid and killer then

        local tag = Instance.new("ObjectValue")
        tag.Name = "creator"
        tag.Value = killer
        tag.Parent = humanoid
    end

end

script.Parent.Handle.blade.Touched:connect(function(p)

local plr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(tool.Parent)

if script.Parent.CanDamage.Value == true and p.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then -- checking if its a player

    script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = false

    local humanoid = p.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

    humanoid:TakeDamage(Av)

    tagHumanoid(humanoid, plr)

    wait(1)

    script.Parent.CanDamage.Value = true

    if p.Parent.Humanoid.Health < 1 then
        print("Player Has Died")
    end

    end

end)
