Found in New York City, the Ranga is an elusive humanoid cryptid said to haunt the Queens area, with a concentration of sightings in Maspeth and College Point. The creature is described as large and slow-moving, with a shaggy coat of wild red hair.
While its size suggests a lumbering presence, the Ranga is noted for its uncanny ability to move in complete silence. This startling stealth often leads to sightings where the creature seems to materialize out of thin air. Witnesses report an unnerving stillness in the air when the Ranga is near, a vacuum-like absence of sound that precedes its appearance.
The Ranga is not considered dangerous in the traditional sense, as it has no recorded history of physical attacks. However, it possesses a more insidious and debilitating characteristic: an insatiable appetite for life force. Those who encounter the Ranga claim to feel a profound draining of their energy, a lassitude that can be difficult to shake. Most accounts state that escaping the Ranga's presence and recovering one's vitality requires outside help, as the victim is left too drained to act on their own.
