Grim Reaper
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
The Grim Reaper appeared in the mythology of many cultures of the planet Earth. It represents Death. Early woodcuts show a Weevils in a shroud and scythe, implying that the idea of the Grim Reapers came from Humans having associated the Weevils with death. In 1470 in Cardiff, Dorac, seemingly a representation of Death who resembled a walking skeleton appeared. (TW: Dead Man Walking)
In 1666 Heathrow, Terileptils dressed up their android as the Grim Reaper and armed it with a scythe to terrify superstitious Humans.
The Grim Reaper also appears on the Death card of the Tarot.
