OVINNIK
Slavic Bad Spirit
Bad barking barn demon
He is one of the Domovoi, but with a twist. He seems to bear some kind of incomprehensible grudge against threshing barns. He is always setting them on fire. What a horrible trick to play on a hard-working farmer.
If you see a black cat-like figure with glowing eyes which barks like a dog, keep away from the barn. Unless you’ve come to fill up his bowl. A decent offering of pancakes will keep him at bay.
