Ghost Stories
Do you believe in superstitions and ghosts? In Russia, there are many people that believe there are friendly ghosts that live in their homes who bring them good luck and good fortune!
Spotlight on Russia introduces you to two famous Russian ghosts
Russia has many folk tales and superstitions about ghosts and spirits. The Domovoy and Rusalka are two of the most well-known spirits in Russian folklore.
The Rusalka
One of the well-known spirits in Russia is the Rusalka. She is the spirit of a young woman who drowned. People that have seen her say she has long wet hair that never dries. The Rusalka lives at the bottom of lakes, rivers or streams, but when there is a new moon she comes out to a nearby forest or meadow. There, she sits on a tree and combs her hair or dances in circles with other Rusalkas. When the Rusalka sees a handsome man, she sings beautiful songs to him and leads him to the bottom of the river or lake where he drowns.
The Domovoy
The Domovoy is a house spirit who lives under the doorstep or behind the stove. Sometimes, the owner of a new house puts a piece of bread under the new stove to attract the Domovoy. The Domovoy brings good luck to a house if its family treats him well. He finishes household jobs when the family is asleep and takes care of family animals. He also screams during the night if there is a stranger outside or a fire.
