The Five Weird Ghosts, or Wu Qi Gui (五奇鬼), appear in folklore from central Zhejiang province. Resembling five enormous worms, only one of them has an eye, so the other four follow it everywhere. They sneak into people's bedrooms at night, and one by one they breathe in a sleeping person's energy. If all five manage to inhale a sleeper's energy, that person will die.
