Mebu'yan

In Bogobo mythology, Mebu'yan takes care of dead babies. She gives them milk from her breasts.

Mebu'yan is ugly to look at, for her whole body is covered with nipples. All nursing children who still want the milk, go directly to Mebu'yan when they die and remain there with Mebu'yan until they stop taking milk from her breast. Then they go to their own families in Gimokudan, where they can get rice, and "live" very well.

Now that's creepy.
