A creature from Russian demonology. It is widespread in the area of the Severnaya Dvina River (flowing in the Vologda and mostly in the Arkhangelsk region) and the Nizhny Novgorod region.

It lives in the cellar of the house (according to some researchers, such structures can be a gateway to another world), attacks and eats people. It makes puffing sounds, for which it got its name.
