Gibdo
The flesh-eating undead mummified corpses know as Gibdo have been around since the very first Legend of Zelda game, and have since appeared in several other Zelda's, like A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask In LoZ and ALttP, they'd just walk around, doing a decent bit of damage if one touches you. In ALttP, they have quite a lot of stamina, too, though they can easily be destroyed with the Fire Rod.
In OoT and MM, the Gibdo is an enemy very similar to the ReDead being similar in movement, figure and moans. If it crosses eyes with Link, it will freeze him, jump onto his back and start biting around his neck. In Ocarina of Time the Sun's Song will freeze them for some time. In Majora's Mask, one way to get past a Gibdo unnoticed is to have the Gibdo Mask. If the player hits them with a Fire Arrow it will burn off their bandages to reveal a ReDead. This only works in Majora's Mask though.
In The Minish Cap, the Gibdo was similar to its Ocarina of Time counterpart, except that it couldn't freeze you or be frozen. You could kill them by torching them with the Flame Lantern, upon they would turn into Stalfos.
Although the enemies in Twilight Princess' Arbiter's Grounds look like Gibdos, they are actually ReDeads.
Quote from The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap Gibdo figurine:
"Appear in the Palace of Winds. These mummies keep coming at you when you attack. It's better to fight from a distance if you want to avoid damage."
