Yesterday, on Halloween of all days, I finished my data entry for the 1st Edition AD&D Monster Manual. I started the day with the vampire stat block and ended with the zombie stat block. How appropriate.

Here’s a video on a Chinese creature that’s a little bit of both. Other than the various editions of Deities & Demigods, D&D has primarily presented creatures from Europe folklore and mythology. Maybe this is one you’ve never seen.

I hadn’t.
