5. Boogieman

• Boogieman, also spelt as bogeyman, boogyman, bogyman, boogieman, boogey monster,
is a legendary ghost-like monster. Having no precise appearance and conceptions like the
other famous monsters, the Boogie man can change significantly even from house to
house, within the same community, led on by the imagination of a child or a person. He
is just a formless personification of terror.
• Boogie monster can be used figuratively to indicate a person or thing of which someone
has an unreasonable fear. Parents are often heard telling their naughty child of a
Boogieman hiding under his bed or in his bathroom, all in an effort to make them
behave.

7. Bigfoot

• The Bigfoot figure is common to the folklore of most Northwest Native
American tribes. Native American Bigfoot legends usually describe the
creatures as around 6-9 feet tall, very strong, hairy, uncivilized, and often
foul-smelling, usually living in the woods and often foraging at night. Native
American Bigfoot creatures are almost always said to be unable to speak
human languages, using whistles, grunts, and gestures to communicate
with each other. In some stories, male Bigfeet are said to be able to mate
with human women. In some Native stories, Bigfoot may have minor
supernatural powers-- the ability to turn invisible, for example-- but they
are always considered physical creatures of the forest, not spirits or
ghosts.
