Akinwale Arobieke he was well known as a "bogeyman".
Here's a picture of him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akinwale_Arobieke
Some people believe that the "candyman" that Clive Barker wrote about in the movies is actually based on a real person. His name is Akinwale Arobieke and he is also known as Purple Aki. While he doesn't show up after you chant his name five times in front of a mirror, for a long time people thought he was an urban legend.
Purple Aki has served time in prison for multiple accounts of harassment and even scared one witness so much that they entered the witness protection program because of his threats.
While Clive Barker has not said that he based Candyman on Akinwale Arobieke, it does make sense. This happened in Liverpool and Barker is originally from Liverpool. Plus, Akinwale Arobieke does look alot like Candyman.

The boogy man can look like anything you want it to be as it is created from your own fear
Fear is created from your EGO to stop you from moving forward in life
So if it would be a great adventure to go into the woods and enjoy nature your Ego will create fear to stop you the best thing to do is to face your fear and enjoy the woods : ) for your own personal growth and a great experience
Love & Blessings

We here in Kanaduh had an honest-to-goodness REAL boogy man up until a couple of years ago ! Americans may recall the ex-prime minister of Kanaduh ............. Jean Chretien .
This was one arrogant , semi-intelligent buffoon that raped Kanaduh for what he could get for himself and his friends .
But , the most disgusting part is that he talked and LOOKED like a GENUINE Boogyman . He sounded something like a half ape and half grade-school dropout , and looked like something you`d expect to see in a cage walking around on it`s knuckles .
Bet you can`t beat THAT !
