Bocanach - Stalking the lonely country roads and abandoned battlefields of Britain, these beastly faeries resemble goblin-like creatures with the heads of goats. They have been known to eat corpses that they find, though are not active predators. They communicate with each other by making ghastly wails, often mistaken for those of banshees. It’s name translates as ‘Goat-like Being’ and is consequently a haunting goat of Ireland. It is known to lurk on battlefields but it also stalks the countryside and intercepts travellers on lonely roads. In an epic battle as the two opposing heroes Ferdia dn Cu Chulaiin fought each other the battlefield was filled with the shrieking screams of the Bocanach. The Bocanach has been depicted as a Goblin-like creature with a goat’s head.
El Busgosu - Detailed in the Spanish mythology of Asturias and Cantabria, this satyr-like elemental is described as a humanoid creature with the hairy legs of a goat and horns, but is also sometimes represented as resembling more common faeries like elves. In Cantabria, it is said to be a helpful spirit which guides lost shepherds home and helps to mend farm cabins, but in Asturias it is a Leshy-like entity which will give tuberculosis to woodcutters and loggers who enter its territory.
Kukudh - Much too different to the Kukudhi to be classified as the same creature as had been previously suggested, these Armenian vampires are deadly and vicious, having been resurrected from the corpses of misers who are now damned to haunt the houses they once protected so fervently. Apparently they resemble goat-legged humanoids. They can only be defeated if they are strangled with nooses made from vines by a brave boy, who will then become the heir to the fortune of the undead misers.
Maçone - Found in the Brazilian locale of Sergipe, these tall demons resemble dark-furred goat-like humanoids dressed in tough armour fashioned from galvanised iron, and are said to prowl secluded roads at night in the forms of black goats, looking for people to kill and devour. They are also known to specifically target young or newborn children, and to have eyes that burn bright with demonic flames. Because of their appearance, they are often mistaken for satyrs or goatmen.
