Actually baba Yaga (literally grandma Yaga) is not a word for a witch, but the most famous witch. She lives deep in the woods in an interesting architectural setting. Her house has two chicken legs and can either squat to hide them or run away. The fence is made of candy and that lures children into the house where baba Yaga eats them. That lovable grandma travels on a broom and uses its bottom part to clean up her tracks or can sometimes ride the house to escape. She is also known to be picky towards her meals and upon capturing a skinny child, she may feed it first and then eat it.
