Origin: England
A malevolent creature that breaks machines. They used to be good creatures that helped with inventions. But when their help went unacknowledged, they turned to playing pranks on humans. They are relatively new demons, as mythologies go.

Manga Appearances

Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The Lone Marebito

Gremlins are first mentioned in Chapter 1 by Shouhei Narumi while dismissing the mysterious mechanical failures that Midori Toyama had brought to the Narumi Detective Agency regarding her family's newest streetcar line. Later within the same chapter, when Raidou is pulled into the Dark Realm while riding a streetcar, he discovers a horde of demons that Gouto identify as a variant of Gremlin, likely drawn to the streetcar by the grudge of recently fired streetcar line workers. The Gremlins swarm and merge into a singular large Gremlin, and Raidou summons Gozuki and Mezuki in order to defeat it. With the assistance of his demons, Raidou kills the Gremlins.
