The redcap (or Redcap) is a type of murderous goblin found in Border folklore. They are said to inhabit ruined castles along the border of England and Scotland, especially those places that were once the scenes of tyranny or wicked power.
As many writers say, Redcap is depicted as "...a short, thickset old man with long prominent teeth, skinny fingers armed with talons like eagles, large eyes of a fiery red colour, grisly hair streaming down his shoulders, iron boots, a pikestaff in his left hand, and a red cap on his head. When travellers take refuge in his lair he will fling huge stones at them, and if he kills them he will soak his cap in their blood, giving it a crimson hue. However, he may be driven away by repeating words of Scripture or holding up the cross. He will then utter a dismal yell and vanish in flames, leaving behind him a large tooth on the spot where he was last seen.Other than these measures, human strength will do very little in overcoming him."
E un pic violent monstrul, doar spunemi daca ceva sati dau altul.
