Chai nenesi
Chai nenesi (Turkish: ''Çay Ninesi'', Azerbajanese: ''Çay Nənəsi''), is a name applied to Turkic spirits of water, commonly creeks. She is responsible for sucking people into swamps and lakes〔Türk Mitolojisi Ansiklopedik Sözlük, Celal Beydili, Yurt Yayınevi (Page - 136)〕 as well as killing the animals standing near the still waters.
It is described as a white nude and tousled and is considered to harass the people and bring misfortune to the drunkards. In most versions, Chai Nenesi is an unquiet being, associated with the "unclean force". She could come out of the water at night, climb a tree, and sit there singing songs, sit on a dock and comb her hair.

The same creature is an important in mythology of Komi people. She supposedly lives in the Kama River and often goes to the shore to comb her hair. Everybody who sees her will soon drown or die by another cause.
In Slavic mythology its name is Rusalka. Rusalka is a female ghost, water nymph, succubus, or mermaid-like demon that dwelt in a waterway. Though in some versions of the myth, their eyes shine like green fire, others describe them with extremely pale and translucent skin, and no visible pupils. Her hair is sometimes depicted as green or golden, and often perpetually wet. The Rusalka could not live long on dry land, but with her comb she was always safe, for it gave her the power to conjure water when she needed it. According to some legends, should the rusalka's hair dry out, she will die.
