- "Beautiful-but deadly! That's Peg Powler. the green haired haunt who lures men to destruction-laughing as they die!" Walking along the River Tees in England, a passerby hears the cries and sees the head of a drowning woman in the water. He leaps into the water to save her. He sees her up close, a green-haired woman who laughs manically at his woes in the river. A man in a rowboat comes to his rescue, explaining the apparition was Peg Powler, a beutiful woman who killed herself over a man's love. Now hating males, she lures other men into the water to cause their drowning.
- The little fish that live in the Peg Powler's mouth feed on bits of food clinging to its teeth. In return, these little fish keep the Peg Powler's teeth sharpened. This folk is only available with Ellen and can be acquired from the Undersea City.
