Description

The bhut is a foul undead creature that lurks in remote areas and masquerades as the living in a most unusual manner. A bhut spends much of its time possessing a humanoid corpse. When forced from its host, the ghostly bhut is a terrifying sight that consists of a humanoid head with red, feral eyes, a mouth full of daggerlike teeth, and a roiling, half-formed body of sickening black smoke and dank red mist. A bhut comes into being when a humanoid dies a sudden, violent death in a remote region. Bhuts harbor a festering hatred of the living, and they wander the wilderness preying on travelers and pilgrims. A bhut speaks all languages it knew in life.
