"Boogeyman is a groundskeeper and elementary school teacher at Shinjuku Academy. Originally from the otherworld of Tir na Nog, it's said that he was born from the deepest fears of children. He's always believed that if a child should display dangerous behavior, exposing them to horror can be highly effective at scaring them back onto the right path and ensuring they never repeat their mistakes. Even within the school, he's renowned by the students as an exceptionally strict teacher and feared due to his gloomy personality and the frightening set of gardening tools he's often seen carrying. This is unintentional on his part, however, and whenever he inadvertently scares students, his gloomy countenance intensifies with regret and, in turn, scares the students even more, creating a vicious circle. He enjoys going out for drinks with teachers from other schools who are similarly shunned by their students, and either commiserating with them or sometimes extolling the virtues of his own students whom he deeply respects despite their aversion to him. He leads homeroom in a class with a certain photography club member who actually seems drawn to him out of sympathy for his secret horror identity. Horror is, in fact, a major part of Boogeyman's identity, to such an extent that he belongs to a theater guild wherein he prioritizes horror-themed productions. One of his fellow guild members, however, has a very different view of what Tokyo's theater scene should be, causing the two of them to butt heads quite often. Boogeyman's Sacred Artifact is the cloth he keeps tied to his waist, which creates a closed space around anything ensnared within it, the contents of which (be they physical or intangible) can be instantaneously transported to another location."
