In German folklore, the Hafermann, or oat man, is a felgeist who lurks in the corn and kidnaps children. He wears a big black hat and is said to carry either a large stick or an iron shillelagh.
While the Hafermann is most often said to snatch those who pass by the corn fields, some say he will appear at the windows of nearby houses, and anyone who sees him will die after a year and a day.
