Escalator mummy

"The mighty pharaoh stands near beside stairs,and admires their design. Nobody shall disturb him in his hobby,and the ones who do will face the wrath of his insects" -some old Egyptian hieroglyphic found in excavations of the tomb which is considered to be the escalator mummy's origin.

Escalator mummy is a cryptid made by Mazellmi. It is a humanoid with it's body covered in tapes just like any mummies, but legends say what found inside is not a walking rotten corpse, it's the pharaoh being surprisingly intact. He is believed to be a famed pharaoh whose name is unknown, but has the title "insect bender" For his excellent talent in raising and controlling insects. After his death, he is not carried by people due to his last wish, being that his insects must carry the sarcophagus into his tomb. Surprisingly, a great swarm of insects both the ones he raised and he didn't swarmed the ritual area and carried him to his tomb. Soon the insects flew into the sacrophagus and disappeared. He also had a bad habit of just standing near stairs (nowadays escalators) and just look at them for hours. He'll attack security guards if they tried to stop him, and just kill them if they didn't evacuate the place. His attraction to insects gave him volukinesis and always appears around 12 am every night. Nightgaurds around the world are to be advised to avoid him if is sighted, as he can overpower the insects aiding him in battles that even a locust can turn into into a carnivorous killing machine or a drop of scorpion venom kills you in minutes.

Extra credit to Haswanth selvan's elder cousin, cause he took that carnivorous locusts part from one of his imaginations he shared with me which is how it'd be if locusts evolved into carnivores and eat me alive
