Adze

A creature from the folklore of the African people of Ewe (Togo and Ghana). A man (probably a sorcerer) taking the form of a firefly. He is able to seep through any crack and even pass through walls to suck the blood of sleepers at night. Victims of this usually get sick and die. Although according to some sources it is believed that if a person survives after this, he becomes a witch or a sorcerer.

If you grab him, he will acquire a human form.

In human form, he can inhabit other people. Men or women possessed by adze are considered witches and sorcerers. A person is suspected of being possessed in various situations, for example: women with brothers (especially if their brothers' children live better than their own), old people (if the young suddenly start dying) and the poor (if they envy the rich).
