Answer 2

The Lachusa is a large bird with the face of a hideous witch. This bird has long sharp talons and sits and listens to conversations. It laughs and mocks people, taunting them to come out. If it is after you and catches you it will scratch your eyes out. I know someone who swore they were being chased and made it in the house right before dusk.......I saw them running like the devil himself was after him........I don't know but then again I don't want to..
