A short creature from Italian mythology. They are from one to three feet tall (0.3-0.9 m), with curly hair and bright eyes, usually wears red. Some of them have goat hooves, while others have no legs at all. They wear caps that give them the ability to become invisible.

They live in the forest or in human houses. During the day they hide, and at night they come out and start messing up: they damage livestock, break agricultural tools, break dishes and bend spoons, ruffle the hair of sleeping women and send nightmares to people. Sometimes they can attack a woman and rape her.
