The Freybug is a black dog in English folklore. It is said to be the size of a calf (a common description of English black dogs), and terrorises travellers on quiet country roads. Most stories of this phantom hound come from Norfolk.
The legend of the Freybug dates back to at least 1555, when Protestant martyr Laurence Saunders mentioned the beast in a letter to his wife. Spelled "Fray-bug," it also appears in the Oxford as an "object of fear" and a "bogy spectre."
