The Pale Man
A vile humanoid monster with an appetite for small children.
Where is he from?
The Pale man is a monsterous creation of genius filmmaker Guillermo Del Toro for his 2006 masterpiece, Pan's Labyrinth, and is a great example of Guillermo's ability to tap into some sort of Jungian universal subconscious and give form to everyone's dreams. He was played by Doug Jones, who also played the Faun.
