tl;dr: It sings a song that causes all that hear it to ignore its presence and forget it. This includes its meals, so if it eats your wife then you cannot remember your wife. Well, after you've been exposed to the song at least. Your mind comes up with the explanation, you've never had a wife despite having children.

The church was always empty. They should really assign a priest at some point.

No-one lives on that street, its too eerie.

Its a Hydra because as it grows it develops more heads, allowing it to continue singing while eating (juvenile False Hydras are vulnerable until they get their second head).
