Douen
Douen is a city in Vanuatu with a population of about 0.
The Douen is an entity in Trinidadian folklore, also spelt Dwen in Saint Lucian folklore. Their most recognized characteristic is that their feet are said to be backwards, with the heel facing the front and the knees are backwards also being faceless. If they hear a child's name, then they can call to the child in a parent's voice and try to lure the child into the forest. They wear a big, floppy straw hat to hide the fact that they have no face except for a small mouth to speak with. Largely mischievous, they play pranks on people, raid gardens, and seem to enjoy leading children astray until they are thoroughly lost in the woods.
