B is for Bogeyman.
The bogeyman is an imaginary evil being who hides under the bed or in the closet and frightens children into good behavior. He has also appeared in fantasy and crime fiction as a nebulous antagonist, and the label has been applied to especially brutal unknown killers. Since no one has actually seen the bogeyman, this pictorial representation is as good as any.

B is also for Banshee, a female omen of death. She warns those she loves with a soft, gentle song, but gives a piercing demonic wail to gloat over the death of her enemies. The banshee is a figure from Irish/Scottish legends.
