Or, if you want to stick to West African lore, you could add the following:

Obia, a monstrous animal summoned to serve witches, also the name of the witches, themselves,
Sasabonsam, a vampire with iron teeth and iron hooks in place of hands, and on their feet,
Zin, water spirits that live in the Niger river.

Sadly i don't know enough of african lore, so only tried to implement "spiders and sorcerors" theme. Haven't found enough of mentioned creatures by search. Obia - doesn't it sound to similar to Shinuyama's uba, it is used already then? About the others 2 know too litle to start from.
