Gello is a demon from Greek mythology. She targets expectant mothers, causing infertility, spontaneous abortions and the death of infants. Traditionally, Gello is seen as the spirit of a woman who died a virgin and now seeks vengeance.
By the Byzantine period, "gello" referred to a race of demons rather than an individual being. These gelloudes fly at night, entering houses and strangling infants. Amulets and charms were thought to protect against these creatures.
