A Spriggan was a type of faerie in Cornish folklore who would gaurd old ruins.
Similarities to Slender Man
Edit
The Spriggan would kidnap children, and like in some accounts in the original mythos, could grow taller than it's original size.
Unlike Slenderman, the Spriggan has a face, and is usually described as very ugly in appearance.
