Evil water creatures that frighten children. In the english province in Yorkshire they are known as "baby boogeys". They have a medium height, their face is wrinkly and ugly, their skin and fangs are green. Even though the english leyend claims they frighten children to make them pass a bad time, other sources indicate they do it to save them from danger.
