Description: Baba Yaga, or Baba Roga, even Ježibaba in some Slavic countries, was an evil witch that looked like an ugly and frail old woman who lived in a forest cottage that stands on chicken feet.

Serving a similar purpose like the boogeyman, Slavic parents have freaked out their children for generations: "If you misbehave, Babaroga will kill and eat you at night"... or something like that.
