Who is the boss in the house?
Of course, the most famous supernatural creature living in the same house with a person is the brownie. Some believe that it appears from trees felled during the construction of a house. Others believe that the brownie is the soul of a deceased ancestor, that as a punishment it was left to guard its kind. It is believed that it is these creatures that protect our homes from evil spirits, thieves and other people with bad intentions. If you suddenly began to notice the loss of things in your house, wrinkled linen, crumbs on the floor, hear a rumble, rustling, then this indicates that you have offended the brownie in some way. These creatures hate scandals, screams, swear words, tobacco smoke. The laziness of the owners also annoys the brownie. It is generally accepted that house-makers used to live behind stoves, but now they have migrated to stoves or radiators, they feel comfortable in the closet. Therefore,in order to regain the good disposition of the brownie, you should disassemble all the things, clean the stove, the battery and the floor. Contact the housekeeper with respect. You can transport the brownie using a shoe or felt boot. To do this, you need to leave your shoes in the middle of the room overnight, and in the morning, move them to a new home. And to drive away, you need to sweep every corner of the house from Monday to Sunday, skipping Friday, with the words: "I will sweep you, stranger, evil brownie."
In addition, a kikimora may live in the house, which loves to rattle and break dishes, spoil food, throw bulbs, and so on. She does not cause serious harm to a person, basically she only arranges minor leprosy. It is believed that the kikimora can become the wife of a brownie.
Such kindred
The brownie has relatives, our ancestors believed. This is a courtyard, tormenting domestic animals, which he does not like, and a barn - the owner of a barn (warehouse with grain), who monitors all supplies, the safety of grain. But from time to time, bad deeds are attributed to him. The shed helps to invisibly maintain order in the shed, but it can punish the careless owner, for example, fill up poorly folded firewood. Their images echo.

I washed myself - thank
It is believed that a spirit lives in the bath, which is called a bathhouse. He lives behind a stove (stove) or under a shelf where they steam. It is invisible to people, but sometimes it can appear. In such cases, he is described as a naked old man with long disheveled hair and a beard. To achieve the location of the bathhouse, he should have left a broom in the bath, a bar of soap and water at the bottom of the tub. If the spirit is angry about something, then it can knock, throw stones from the stove, tickle people. He can also steam a person until they lose consciousness. If people feel that something is wrong in the bath, it is worth appealing to the spirit. To do this, you need to clean up, bring a piece of rye bread sprinkled with salt to the bathhouse. A handful of salt should be thrown onto the stove as well. In addition, you should thank the bathhouse every time after you have washed. Often he does not live alone in the bathhouse. His wife is called a bannywarrior, shishiga. She looks like a scary, shaggy old woman naked. It can turn into a good friend or relative in order to lure into the bathhouse and steam up to death.
