Wow I remember my grandmother (RIP) telling me to respect the house and keep it clean because the Domovoy would judge me and either protect the household or cause problems if I don't.

[@zogkuma]

Slavic house elves who require much higher respect and treatment, basically. I like this!

Cool! 😎 👍

Must be the Slavic cousin of Dobby, the English House Elf.

I think might be what inspired the harry potter author to create the house elves in the 2nd book

I bet this legend started when some slavic hunter went on a hunt and pased by a different village where a family who had a gandfather with dwarfism lived and the hunter, presumably never having seen anyone with dwarfism before assumed the grandfather to be some magical creature which he then proceeded to tell to his village when he got home and so the myth spread from there.

People are going to say the same stuff about elf on the shelf one day. Really though it’s probably a story parents told their kids in order to keep their homes clean.

[@SeeUinHistory]

That's a good hypothesis!

[@BigScreamingBaby]

@@SeeUinHistory Thanks the way he's described just sounds like a grandfather. He's got the long white beard he helps around the house and he's good with kids sound like a grandpa to me.

Who is Domovoy trying to keep out in the second picture? It looks like Gollum. Do they have a magical adversary in the myth?

[@jivkoyanchev1998]

Could be a Drekavac. I think the video makers just drew it in order to have a more interesting picture. I don't think the Domovoj has a specific adversary.

[@SeeUinHistory]

Exactly, it's a drekavac

Slavic stories are closely with Norse and galic
