Baba Yaga in her mortar
In Slavic folklore, Baba Yaga is a supernatural being (or one of a trio of sisters of the same name) who appears as a deformed and/or ferocious-looking woman. Baba Yaga flies around in a mortar, wields a pestle, and dwells deep in the forest in a hut usually described as standing on chicken legs (or sometimes a single chicken leg). Baba Yaga may help or hinder those that encounter or seek her out. She sometimes plays a maternal role, and also has associations with forest wildlife. According to Vladimir Propp's folktale morphology, Baba Yaga commonly appears as either a donor or villain, or may be altogether ambiguous.
Baba Yaga and the Magic Swan Geese
Once there was a couple who had both a daughter and a son. They left their daughter in charge of her younger brother, but one day she lost track of him and the magic swan geese snatched him away. The daughter chased after him and came upon an oven that offered to tell her if she ate its rye buns; she scorned them, saying she doesn't even eat wheat buns. She also scorned similar offers from an apple tree, and a river of milk. She came across a little hut built on a hen's foot, in which she found Baba Yaga with her brother.
Baba Yaga's house
in Slavic mythology, a place of transition from the earthly world to the underworld; hut opens the door to the living world and in the world of the dead, so the hero can not set foot on the land of the underworld and forced to follow with the fiber of the coil, which is unwound; guard hut Baba Yaga.
Baba Yaga and Ivan Zareich from Marya Morevna
in Slavic mythology Ivan is the main hero of Russian folk tales. He is often portrayed as either the third son of a peasant family or the third son of a king. Ivan Tsarevich married a warrior princess, Maria Morevna, who was kidnapped by the immortal being called Koschei the Deathless. In this tale, the animals helpers were a lion, a bird and a magic horse that belonged to Baba Yaga. It was this horse that beat Ivan Koschei.
