The churel is a malevolent revenant from South Asian folklore, particularly that of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Always female, they are generally said to be born from women who die during childbirth or pregnancy, or those who have been killed by the parents of their husband.
Churels are naturally hideous, but can change their shape, turning into beautiful women in order to lure men into the woods. There, she will consume their life force, either killing them or leaving them as withered old husks.
