Description

In Bulgarian and Macedonian mythology, an evil mythical female creature that lives in the mountains, by the lake and rushes through the air like a whirlwind. A kind of fork. They are hostile to people and, seeing someone bathing, they entangle their long hair like nets.

 Those caught are tortured in various ways, for example, with special pleasure they tear out their eyes.
