  Hinkypunk - Harry Potter Wiki - a Wikia wiki
A Hinkypunk is a little, one-legged creature which appears as though it were made of wisps of smoke.
Rather frail and harmless looking, the Hinkypunk carries a lantern and uses it to lure people into bogs, where it then kills them.
It is therefore classified by the Ministry as a Dark Creature.

In the folklore of England’s West Country, the hinkypunk is said to lurk in remote areas at night, waiting for an approaching traveler before he lights a lantern and steps into view.
The weary pedestrian, overjoyed to see a flicker of light in the distance, heads toward it, mistaking it for his destination or for a fellow traveler up ahead on the trail.
The next thing he knows, he falls in a ditch, sinks into a bog, or tumbles off a cliff—much to the amusement of the hinkypunk.

Lurking in remote areas at night, the hinkypunk awaits the unwary traveler and lights a lantern, then steps into view.
Seen at a distance, the light is mistaken for the traveler's destination or perhaps another traveler, but he is led into a ditch, a bog, or even over the edge of a cliff -- all to amuse the nasty hinkypunk.
