A kelpie is a malevolent water spirit of the British isles, especially Scotland. They are said to take the form of young horses. They graze near lakes and rivers trying to lure unsuspecting travelers onto their backs. Anyone foolish enough to try to capture and ride the horse will be pulled down into the water and drown.
They can also take human form.
Though some tales say that they are helpful to millers by keeping the water wheel spinning.

The Cockatrice is a legendary creature that is supposedly hatched from an egg laid by a rooster and hatched by a toad. It has the head of a rooster, the body and tail of a snake, and the wings of a bat. Related to the Basilisk, the Cockatrice has many of the same powers. The only real difference between the two is that the Cockatrice has the legs of a rooster, while the Basilisk is usually portrayed as being more snake-like.

Dudleyville (also called Dudleytown) is an abandoned town in Litchfield County in Northwestern Connecticut, about three miles outside of Cornwall. It was settled in 1738, and later abandoned because of the strange goings on there. Legend has it that the town experienced a high number of cases of insanity and suicide. Bad luck seemed to plauge the townsfolk until the smart ones packed up and left. Today the town is nothing more than a number of foundations being reclaimed by the wilderness. But even the woods are slow to intrude into this eerie place.
