Baba-Yaga was an old hag and witch in Slavic folklore who would fly around on a giant mortar/silver birch broomstick. She was famous for kidnapping and (most likely) eating small children. The hag lived in a walking house on chicken legs. Some people have been known to seek her out for wisdom. However, while from time to time she has been known to offer guidance to lost souls (as in the tale of Vasilisa the Beautiful), it was not common.

In Russian folk tales, Baba Yaga can supply Ivan the Fool with a flying carpet or some other magical gifts (e.g. a ball that rolls in front of the hero showing him the way, or a towel that can turn into a bridge). Such gifts help the hero to find his way "beyond thrice-nine lands, in the thrice-ten kingdom".

All published appearances of Baba Yaga from before January 1, )-(95)}} are public domain in the US.

Some stories say she is an enemy of Ded Moroz (the Russian Santa Claus).
