The third contains tales concerning other manifest beings and entities, for instance Sozh, Dnieper and One-Eyed Likho. In the fourth part, we hear tales of magic, witchcraft and warlocks, such as The Headless Princess. The fifth part contains stories concerning ghosts and vampires, for example the Fox Physician and The Two Corpses. Last of all, Ralston narrates traditional legends of Russian folklore, with particular focus upon the saints of the Russian Orthodox church, and the various demons said to have appeared long ago.
