A grindylow is a water spirit that originated from folktales in the English county of Yorkshire.
The name is thought to be connected to Grendel, a name or term most famously used in Beowulf but also found in many Old English charters where it is seen in connection with meres, bogs and lakes...
Grindylows grab little ones with their long arms and fingers and devour them if they came close to the edge of pools, marshes, or ponds.
