Basty
A Basty or Bastı (Azerbaijanese: ''Basdı'') is an evil spirit or goblin in Turkic folklore which rides on people's chests while they sleep, bringing on bad dreams (or "nightmares"). ==Beliefs== The Basty was also believed to "ride" horses, which left them exhausted and covered in sweat by the morning. Basty included witches who took on the form of animals when their spirits went out while they were in trance. Animals such as frogs, cats,〔Türk Mitolojisi Ansiklopedik Sözlük, Celal Beydili, Yurt Yayınevi (Sayfa - 92) 〕 horses, hares, dogs, oxen, birds and often bees and wasps. In their metamorphosed form they could fly through the night, walk on or hover above water and travel in a sieve. Dead basty witches were said to return as ghosts. Basty was a dark spirit that takes a form of a beautiful woman and then visits men in their dreams, torturing them with desire, and dragging life out of them. It is a common belief that basty enters the room through the keyhole, sits on the chest of the sleepers and tries to strangle them .
