Hinkypunk

A Hinkypunk is a small, one-legged creature which appears as though it were made of wisps of smoke. It likes to lead travellers off the track at night and into bog. The Muggle word for them is the will-o'-the-wisp.

Behind the scenes

 * A Hinkypunk is the name of a will-o'-the-wisp in southwestern England.
 * For unknown reasons the book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them carries no information on the Hinkypunk. A possible explanation would be that they are classified as spirits and not as beasts.
