Zburator

The Zburator is a vampiric creature from Romanian folklore similar to an incubus. Its name means “flying thing,” and they are described as resembling handsome young men with black eyes and hair, and wings. When flying across the night sky, they’re said to resemble shooting stars. They visit girls and women at night to have sex. Doing this drains the victim of their life essence, and repeated visits slowly cause the victim to become ill and waste away. They can be repelled by leaving garlic on the windowsill.
