In Belgian folklore, Kludde is a water spirit which roams the Flemish country side.
Description
Kludde usually appears in the shape of a monstrous black dog that walks on his hind legs. It can also assume the shape of a huge, hairy, black cat or a horrible black bird.
Behavior
It is said to hide in the twilight of dawn and sunset and attacks innocent travelers. Travelers would listened for the only sound which betrays that Kludde is in the vicinity: the rattling of the chains with which the spirit is covered. The faster one walks, the faster this monster follows, often swinging through the trees like a giant snake.
