Had a dream I watched an Italian comedy horror movie from the 1970s called Gabbaghoul.
Gabbaghoul was a folk god of night and mischief which would take the shape of a black goat or a beautiful woman, would lie on the porch or the roof of a home and was blamed for misfortune. In the movie, an old man with a dog got a job working for a wealthy chicken farmer and lived in a shack. He started being tormented by a child who called themselves Gabbaghoul, who’d kill chickens and cause a mess and would never be caught, while the old man would be blamed.
Very gritty, dirty, low budget indie horror movie vibes.

dreams dream journal we’d also see the child change shape a couple times starting as a scruffy poor child who the old man greeted happily and lied down on his porch (like in the folk myth!) and then turning into a rich little lord fauntleroy kid who called themselves a slavemaster with the implication i think that the old man was gabbaghoul’s slave? I think?? anyways 7/10 movie fun writing but the budget held it back
