The Asanbosam, Asasabonsam, or more commonly Sasabonsam is a vampire-like folkloric being from the Akan people. It belongs to the folklore of the Akan of southern Ghana 🇬🇭, as well as Côte d'Ivoire, Togo 🇹🇬 and 18th century Jamaica 🇯🇲 from enslaved Akan. It is said to have iron teeth, pink skin, long red hair and iron hooks for feet and lives in trees, attacking from above. In mythology, it is usually portrayed as an archetypical ogre, according to A Dictionary of World Mythology:…the hairy Sasabonsam has large blood-shot eyes, long legs, and feet pointing both ways. Its favourite trick is to sit on the high branches of a tree and dangle its legs so as to entangle the unwary hunter. Both the ogre and vampire versions have iron teeth.
