Shtriga
According to Albanian folklore, a Shtriga was a vampire-like witch who was said to suck the blood of infant children while they slept, and then turn into a flying insect.
Shtriga is described as an Albanian witch, but with legends about them going back to ancient Rome They feed of spiritus vitae, or life essence, mainly from children. This leaves the children with a weakened immune system which leaves them vulnerable to illnesses like pneumonia which can kill them. They work their way through the siblings in a family.
