Skinwalker or skin-walker - a creature from the mythology of the Navajo Indians. In the language of the Navajo III Nalluri translates as "he who wears the skin" or "he who walks on all fours" Is the name of a type of indigenous American witches and warlocks got the ability to morph into an animal, using its skin (usually a coyote, but it could be druoe creature, usually associated with death).

Some sources say that a witch needs to kill a member of his own family to gain power of skinmaker.

Skinwalker get pleasure from inflicting suffering and terror. They take the form of an animal to kill, maim, steal and destroy. Sometimes they burst into the house and ravage the residents. Although most are just playing, knocking at the walls and Windows and climbing onto the roof.

Despite all this, they are quite cowardly. If they notice, they will do everything possible to escape.
