Abu Rigl Maslukha

Abu Rigl Masluka is from Egyptian folklore (not mythology). The name means “man with burnt skin” or “man with burnt leg.” The story goes that he was burned because he didn’t listen to his parents telling him to stay away from something hot. He serves as a bogeyman figure. He kidnaps disobedient children to cook and eat.
