It seems like a normal human by day, but this creature takes on the form of a man with no head, who roams the night with a wooden coffin on its neck.
On top of the coffin are three lighted candles and the long loose end of a heavy iron chain, noosed around its waist, trails behind him.
While beating the demon, it changes into other beasts such as a snarling dog, horse, cat, and pig, a wild bullaman and thunderous waves of water and finally will disappear into a black mist .
