Thesquasc (pronounced[ˈskwaʃ]) is amythological being of the EasternLombardy regionfolklore.[1]
It is said to be small, hairy, tawny, similar to asquirrel without a tail, but with ananthropomorphic face.[citation needed]
Its nature is somehow between that of anevil spirit (assimilable to theboogeyman or Blackman) and that of anelf orimp. Like the former, the squasc is summoned to frighten children, but like the latter it loves playing jokes on people, particularly young girls.[citation needed]
