In the Chilote folklore and Chilote legends of the Chiloé Island in southern Chile, the Imbunche is a vampirish monster that protects the entrance to a warlock's cave...

 

All the lore about the horrendous Imbunche is of macabre quality...

 

According to legend, the Imbunche was a little one kidnapped by, or sold by his parents to a Brujo Chilote (a type of sorcerer or warlock of Chiloé).

 

The Brujo chilote hideously transformed the child into a deformed hairy monster, applying a magic cream over the boy's back to cause thick hairs and, finally turning his tongue to snake-like one...

 

The Imbunche utters ugly grunts in place of speech.

 

When he goes in search of food it is on three feet, getting along in leaps and letting out bloodcurdling yells scaring anyone who hears them.

 

If anyone sees him they are frozen to the spot forever.

 

The only beings who can look at him without risk are witches.

 

When he has to leave the cavern for some foul purpose he is carried in the air between the witches...

 

As tough as this abomination may be, it is possible to eradicate the Imbunche.

Because it was once human, the monster is still vulnerable to man-made weapons like cold steel and firearms. However, there is another difficult task to face beforehand: one must kill the Trelquehuecuve, the water beast that serves the Imbunche.

 

As this creature is said to be large in size and vicious towards humans, slaying the monster will not be an easy task...
