Churel
A churel, also spelled as churail, chudail or chudel is a female ghost, well known in North India, Bangladesh and Pakistan. The word "churel" is also used colloquially for a witch. Women who die in childbirth or pregnancy due to the negligence of her relatives are often described turning into churels, who return to seek their vendetta and suck the blood of their male relatives. She is described as a hideous creature with long sagging breasts, unkempt hair and her feet are backward.
Sometimes, she is described roaming naked. She may have a pot belly, claw-like hands, and scruffy and long pubic hair. She has an unnaturally long and thick black tongue and thick, rough lips; though sometimes she is reported as having no mouth at all. However, she disguise as a beautiful maiden to seduce young men. She drains their blood, semen, and virility, transforming them into aged men.
