Alp

Alp - Normally attacking female victims, these grotesque German faeries are known to sit astride on a sleeping victim's chest and contort their dreams into hideous nightmares. As well as causing bad dreams, they have been known to kidnap livestock and knot hair, and generally cause mischief around the house. The only way to get rid of an alp is to either use steel weapons, or to shove a lemon down its throat.
