There is a story about 3 boys saw ankou
there were three drunk boys who were walking home when they saw a rickety cart then two shout Ankou! Ankou! and then two boys threw stone at the cart and then they broke an axle of the cart then the ankou banished but the third friend felt bad and helped the Ankou and the third boy found a branch then he gave the ankou his shoe laces which to tie the cart the next morning the two boys who threw the stones were DEAD and the third boy had white hair and made it a secret the END ta da finished.

Is this a possible name for a male banshee or is there a major difference between them?

In the book I am reading, it says that anyone who sees the ankou's face doesn't live to tell the tale. I then went and looked up facts about this creature, only to find that there are several variances on the origins about ankou, but in every picture I've seen a face. How much does this book (it's a dream book, called The Nightmare Encyclopedia) deviate from accepted lore?

all legends start from true happenings but after time they sink more and more into fairy tales.

This kind of character would be great in a novel... as perhaps the bad entity (because of it's relation to the dead/death) but it's also as a wise and powerful being to be reckoned with.
