Description
Rawhead and Bloody Bones is a skeletal bogeyman of English and American folklore. He said to haunt deep ponds where he drags helpless children or sometimes resides under stairs. In some tales he's two separate entities: headless bloody skeleton and a floating skull, in others he's a scary humanoid sitting on a pile of bones. In the American south, he is a human skeleton with the skull of a boar. He sometimes called Tommy Rawhead, and is the subject of many scary tales.
Being that I'm from the southern United States, I decided to go with the more local version with the boar's head. I tried to incorporate several elements from the legend including water and stairs.
Thanks for looking,
Daniel
