Tammatuyuq is a terrifying human-eating monster from Inuit belief in Hudson Bay, Canada. This creature takes human form to gain the trust of an infant, and then kills the infant by piercing its head with a needle or straw and then sucking its blood. Sometimes, it steals the baby, and may also gain the trust of the mother. But when left alone with it, it takes it back to its lair and sucks its blood.
