Mod

The following are the Creepers, sometimes called Creeping Things or Creeping Ones(The-Ones-Who-Creep/The-Ones-Who-Crawl by the local Native American tribe). Most either originate from the Underworld or have taken up residence there. They are the basis for many urban legends and scary stories, and they have been drawn to Baskerville County due to it's increasing number of Chill Junkies - hooked on reading horror stories to get a good fright.

Demons
A demon was a human soul who has been corrupted by the Taint of Zalgo's blood. They must possess the bodies of the dead to exist in our world, although a living possession is possible, yet rare. They are weak against sunlight, loud sounds, and prayers. Prayers may force a demon into it's true form. Sunlight, to a demon in it's true form, causes them to burn enough so that steam rolls off their skin - but it will not kill them or do any damage that time can not heal. Silver and salt also can form barriers to demons. Demons are allergic to garlic, hemlock, wolfs bane, iris, poppy and nightshade - they cause nausea, dizziness, and in large doses, hallucinations.

Vampires
Born from a demon and a human, these undead must survive off of human blood. Pale, with red, blue or gold eyes; they must hunt under the cover of night for the sun reduces them to dust. Their main weakness is vervain. Garlic causes a rash when on skin contact and allergic reactions when ingested, burning of the nasals when smelled; as does hemlock, wolfs bane, iris, poppy and nightshade. Drugs have little to no affect in them, but alcohol affects them the same way as humans, only in larger amounts. Fire can burn a vampire to dust, but the ashes must be scattered to prevent resurrection. They have cold body temperatures.

Werewolves
They are ruled by the sway of the moon and must feed on human flesh. All werewolves have an allergy to wolfs bane and mistletoe. Silver burns their flesh. They can turn by bite or scratch, but most are born. They have high body temperatures.

Wendigos
'The Jersey Devil' is a story related to this demonic cannibal. Eating human meat will cause you to become a Wendigo. Continuous consumption even after officially becoming one will morph you into the chimeric abomination which is commonly identified with the Jersey Devil, a skull-like head, antlers, and hoofed feet.

Imaginary Friends
'Laughing Jack' is a good example of an Imaginary Friend. Colorful and bright, once angered they fade to shades of black, whites and greys. IFs, being composed of thought and dream energies, can enter dreams. They feast on human's fear. It is unknown if this is the energy that sustains them or not. They can manipulate their forms - turning fingers into claws or stretching across great lengths.

Slender Suits
Faery gentlemen of the woods, they are said to punish bad children and can compel humans with mind control. Pale and faceless, they stand roughly ten feet tall. Able to take a human form, they can 'wipe away' their facial features when in this guise. They can change their size, produce tendrils from their backs and distort technology.

Willow Men
Twisted and gaunt like trees, the Willow Men are nature spirits hellbent on order. They punish those who commit crimes by hanging them in willow trees, being skinned alive and having them slowly drained of blood. They are only harmed by silver.

Dullahan
'The Girl With The Ribbon' is a story everyone has heard. Remove her ribbon and her head rolls on the floor. Dullahan, without their ribbons, have their heads fall off - except they don't die. They have the ability to sense death and often appear as a warning of coming doom.

Shades
All Shades come from the Dark Presence. They are elementals of darkness and manipulate shadows and emotions in order to cause their prey to go insane, become depressed or commit suicide. They feed off of human souls, put can only carry a certain number at time.


Ghouls
'The Rake' is a good example of what these things are. Their origin is said to be due to someone searching for the elixir of everlasting life but got everlasting death instead. They are slender, grey and have beady black eyes. They possess human-like hands with long claws, wide grins and dog-like snouts. They feed on the flesh of the dead. They have an unknown connection with Slender.

Ahuizotls
"Smile.jpg" is one of said beasts. Dog-like in appearance, Ahuizotls have human-like grins and a long tail ending in a hand. Most exist around, near or in bodies of fresh water and feed off of human teeth, eyes and nails. When hungry, is is known to weep like a small child.

Keplies
Shape-shifting water horses that drown their victims. They are said to have a glue-like skin, and those who ride them are stuck fast. Being beings of fresh water, they are found in marshes, lakes and rivers. While seafaring variants do exist, they are highly rare. Able to take the form of a land horse or a attractive human, their natural beauty is sure to attract prey.
