In the videogame
South of Midnight, Altamaha-ha is featured as a boss that Hazel encounters in a dark swamp. It is depicted as a large feminine
siren-like creature. In her backstory, Altamaha-ha was once a
slave woman named Ayotunde who worked at a
paddle boat and mothered a baby named
Honey. Eventually she jumped out of the boat with her child and escaped from her captors by hiding in the swamp, but in the process lost her baby. Ayotunde searched endlessly for Honey until the magic of the swamp transformed her into a fish-like monster, where she killed the paddle boat's crew and continued searching for her baby. Meanwhile, Honey also became a monster when Ayotunde hides him in an old tree, turning into a gentle
golem that Hazel befriended and helped him reunite with his mother. ==References==
