Golem (was The Brolum)

You are thinking of 'golem', Richard.
The following is from Wikipedia -
A golem (sometimes [as in Yiddish] pronounced goilem) is an animated
being which is crafted from inanimate material. In modern Hebrew the
word golem denotes "fool", "silly", or even "stupid", "clue-less",
and "dumb", and literally means "cocoon". The name appears to derive
from the word gelem, which means "raw material".

Hi Jan. Only thing I can think of is an Eastern European monster made
of mud and rubbish that gets revenge on those who mistreat Jews.
