Dhampir

In Albania, the dhampir is the hybrid child of the karkanxholl (a werewolf-like creature with an iron mail shirt) or the lugat (a water-dwelling ghost or monster). The dhampir sprung of a karkanxholl has the unique ability to discern the karkanxholl; from this derives the expression the dhampir knows the lugat. The lugat cannot be seen, he can only be killed by the dhampir, who himself is usually the son of a lugat. In different regions, animals can be revenants as lugats; also, living people during their sleep.

When a dhampir is undead, the method of finding a dhampir's grave is to lead a virgin boy through a graveyard or church grounds on a virgin white stallion—the horse will balk at the grave of the dhampir.
