Bitterfly

The Bitterfly, referred to as Chonchon in Japan, is an enemy in the Castlevania series. It is a mutated, butterfly-like insects that uses invisibility as its cloak and weapon.
==Origins==
The chonchon or tué-tué is a creature from Mapuche mythology from Chile. It is depicted as a strange bird with ashen-gray feathers and shaped like a human head, from which it grows sharp claws and huge ears, the latter which it uses as a manner of wings to fly. This creature would emit a fateful cry that would sound like "tué, tué". It is believed that the person who hears it is close to death.
Originally in the Mapuche culture, the legend referred as chonchon to the transformation that a kalku would carry out, a sorcerer who practices evil with the help of the wekufe spirits. Later on, when this belief was assimilated to the tradition of the Chilean colony, the transformation to chonchon would be associated with the powers of witches and sorcerers who serve the Devil. Chonchons can only be seen by other kalkus or by magicians who want this power.
==Description==
Bitterflies are mutated insects that resemble human heads boasting two prolonged ears which they use as wings for flying, giving them the appearance of some sort of big and grotesque butterflies.
They have no attacks and move about the area slowly, obstructing the paths of the level. They will stay invisible unless the player runs into them, damages them, or when the player is not moving if they are nearby. When attacked, they may disappear and reappear elsewhere, safe from harm. Touching them inflicts Curse. When killed, its skull will fall on the floor, producing a peculiar sound.
