In Cantabria (northern Spain), it is a malicious imp with pointed ears that tries to change the behaviour of young lonely girls. Under cover of invisibility, he strokes the maids with mandrake, until the girls become passionate and joyful. Some legends tell us that he is in fact an agent of Masabakes, female demon of lust, who indicates in which house the Tentirujo should act. (From Pantheon.org)
Tentirujo sounds suspiciously like sangria.
Excellent. More power to his elbow!
