Banshee
         You’ll probably hear the banshee
         before you see her. This moaning
       spirit specializes in hanging around
          the house wailing when a family
     member is about to die. The mournful
        cry of a banshee can shatter glass,
            so have your earplugs handy.





















                          Grim Reaper
                          No one can escape
                          the Grim Reaper. A stern
                          figure in a hooded black
                          cloak, he carries a scythe
                          (an implement for cutting
                          grass) as a sign of
                          impending death and
                          holds up an hourglass
                          to show that your time
                          is running out. You’d
                          better quickly eat your
                          dinner just in case.
