Dark Lurker Bogeyman

A towering silhouette that exists somewhere between nightmare and flesh, its form constantly shifting in the periphery of vision. The dark lurker bogeyman doesn't just hunt - it savors fear, growing more solid and powerful as terror takes hold. It marks targets across distances, tracking them through walls and closed doors by the psychic resonance of their dread. Torchlight keeps it at bay but doesn't banish it entirely; the thing simply waits in deeper shadows, whispering thoughts that aren't quite heard but definitely felt. Lesser dark creatures follow in its wake, emboldened by their leader's presence. When it strikes, the attack is as much mental as physical - a psychic violation that leaves victims questioning what's real.
