Bugbears, sometimes known as "Buckbairds", are a more powerful version of the Peeping Eye, but have mythological roots and vary in look and appearance from time to time.
The Buckbaird (Japanese バックベアード) is a creature of disputed origin, but generally agreed to be the creation of artist Shigeru Mizuki. It first appeared in the "GeGeGe no Kitarou" comics. It represents the West and smog. Buckbaird is classically depicted as a black mass of tendrils with a single, giant eyeball in the middle.

Appearances
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Bugbears appear in the last part of Dracula's castle - The Pinnacle. They are almost immune to lightning. They have no attack aside from wandering about and trying to touch Soma. Beware of the electric ball at the end of their tail !
Their soul grants Soma a great armor against Lightning.
Castlevania : Order of Ecclesia
They are about the same as in Dawn Of Sorrow. What changes is the sound they produce after waking up - electric stuff.
