Answer
A. Spooky FemaleB. Spooky Female
C. Spooky Male
If A is truthful, B must be truthful which would make C a Flitty Female. Since that would mean C speaks the truth then A and B are both predators which would make B's statement false. Therefore A must be lying.
Therefore if A lies then B must lie (from A's statement).
From A's false statement then, C is spooky and from B's false statement. C is male. Therefore C is truthful and A and B are both Spooky Females.
