A Thing that Hides in The Dark is the corpse of a child who was abandoned in a dark, forgotten place - animated by their loneliness and grown by the hatred that festered as they died. No one has ever truly seen one, since they disintegrate nearly instantly in the light, but it is written that these undead measure over 10 feet tall and always try to kill parents before their other victims.
