The hidebehind is a nocturnal fearsome critter from American folklore that preys upon humans that wander the woods, which was blamed for the disappearances of early loggers when they failed to return to camp. The hidebehind is said to be able to conceal itself: when an observer attempts to look directly at it, the creature quickly hides behind an object or behind the observer and therefore cannot be directly seen.
