problems. Leslie inherited the place from her mother, who was murdered on the property. Leslie attempted to live there, but would hear knocking on doors, see the turning of knobs, and reports that lights would flick on at random. She even reports that at one point, she came down to her kitchen to find it looking as if someone had cooked in it.

Encyclopedia of Threats
RED CAPS || A type of ravenous, gnome-like fae that are carnivorous. They are around 2 feet tall with sharp teeth and red caps; the red in the caps is due to their habit of soaking them in the blood of their prey.
KELPIES || Shape-shifting, water-residing creatures. Often shifting into the form of a horse, they lure people to ride them, where their victims will find themselves stuck. Then, they will drag their victims into the water, drown them, and then eat them.
MENDERS || Small creatures, at most the size of a person's hand; they look a bit like fuzzy people. They regularly fix things for people, often physical issues people have- balding, bad knees, broken bones, etc. However, they expect payment in the form of things like blood, strands of hair, bones, etc, depending on how extreme the fix is. The payment doesn't have to be yours, per say, but if you don't pay them, they'll take payment themselves.
??? || Unknown creature seen at a house around 7 years back. A large creature, standing 12 feet tall, wearing the skins of many different animals stitched together over its body, which is gangly. It wears a deer skull on its head. It seems to skin animals in the areas it resides in order to wear them.
WILDLINGS || The revived corpses of wildlife. Usually road kill or hunted animals that have 'unfinished business' on the mind. Completely rabid and tend to attack people on sight.
AUTOMERIANS || Moth-like parasitoids that use animals (people preferably) as a host. Larvae live in the host until they cocoon, and once the adult form emerges, it crawls out of the mouth of the host. Automerians effect their hosts mentally, driving them to protect the parasitoid at all costs, even damage to themselves; this continues even after the adult emerges, though the host will rapidly deteriorate. They seem to have a semi-psychic connection with their host.
LIVING TOTEMS || Living Totems are objects, like toys, that have had someone believe in them enough that they come to life. Often they're the product of particularly imaginative children, but every so often they can be created by others.
SECRETARIAT || A secretariat is a type of deal-creating demonic entity. They can be summoned and tied to a piece of land by groups of people and can affect forms of luck (either good or bad). Their payment tends to be in the form of a body count, as they feed on the souls of other beings, but victims must be taken in a particular pattern specific to the Secretariat being dealt with. Patterns range from the more logical (victims taken in order of when they stepped foot on the land) to the more absurd (victims must be wearing purple at the time of death). Deaths usually happen in the form of accidents.
