The Poe is a recurring undead enemy in the Legend of Zelda games. It debuted as a minor enemy that can be found at the Graveyard in The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past (1991).

Their visual designs were changed multiple times but in general they appear as hooded ghosts or gchost-like spirits that carry a lantern with them. In some of the later Zelda games like LoZ Twilight Princess they are using weapons to attack Link.

There are also connected characters like the Poe Sisters the Poe Collector or the Shadow Hag.
