Liho

Likho, liho, lykho (Belarusian: лі́ха, Polish: licho, Russian: Лихо, Ukrainian: Лихо) is an embodiment of evil fate and misfortune in Slavic mythology. A creature with one eye who is often depicted as an old, skinny woman in black (Лихо одноглазое, One-eyed Likho) or as an evil male goblin of forests. Rather than being included in the major canon of the Slavic belief system, the Likho is traditionally found in fairy tales.
