Isabel Black wrote a creature journal entry about Pogrebins for her Care of Magical Creatures class. Pogrebins are one foot tall Russian demons with hairy bodies and large gray heads. They follow humans out of fascination and will crouch down to resemble rocks if noticed. If a Pogrebin trails a human for more than a few hours, the human will become overwhelmed with despair and collapse, allowing the Pogrebin to attack and consume them. Isabel once saw a Pogrebin herself while camping at the Quidditch World Cup in Russia, and locals were selling detectors to identify stalking Pogrebins and help ward them off.
