"Alex Gives Up"

"Wait, wait, your last name is Cucuy? That's funny because that's also the name of these scary Latino mythical creatures that my mom used to talk to me about to make me behave as a child."
Theresa talking about the Cucuy

The Cucuy is a Latin magical creature that possesses great wealth. Like Wizards and Werewolves, Cucuys live in the real world.

Biology[]

Cucuys possess a human appearance, and over time they grow old. By using magic, Cucuys can change their face to a dark-gray skull shape, with large red eyes.

Social Habits[]

"We live here in the real world just like you Wizards do."
Carlos Cucuy talking about the Cucuy's social habitat

Cucuys live on Earth rather than in the Wizard World, enjoying a lavish life thanks to their wealth. However, they do have connections with the Wizard World, buying wizarding magazines and keeping touch with magical events. Also, Cucuys enjoy scaring human children. They're also terrified of werewolves.
