When a strange light is seen at night in the Welsh wilderness, often it's a pwca's candle. These black-furred goblins love to play nasty tricks. Sometimes pwcas turn into animals (such as horses), other times they use their candles to lead travelers into bogs or off cliffs.

The skunk ape is a hairy cryptid said to inhabit the forests and swamps of the southeastern United States, especially Florida. It resembles Bigfoot, but is thought of as smaller, closer to an average human in height. The skunk ape produces a foul, skunk-like odor.

In the original English ballads, Robin Hood robbed from the rich but he didn't give to the poor - he kept the money. Robin was a folk hero not because he actively helped the poor but just because he harassed the greedy people who the poor wished they could harass.
