I am really starting to wonder if the chicken leg house of Baba Yaga is a 20th century invention. I can't find any indication of older tales with that take.

A horrible spider dwells in a cave on Sonnenberg mountain. It resembles a child's skull in size and appearance.

#Airisu: The Crow and the Witch
Okiku (Airisu POV): Post 37
#Wss366 Yellow #TimeTravelAuthors WhateverI hadn’t been able to get her to give up the plan of rescuing Okiku-san, but I convinced her to stay away from Lookback Ridge and the presence there. Instead, she drew a magic circle and the required runes in her garden.
On the chosen night, the full moon shone brightly over the neat rows of herbs in her yard. The plants gave off a faint purplish light that I associated with magical energy. The faint scent of shiso, rosemary, and mugwort hung in the air.
As the hour of the ox arrived, Sumika cast yarrow stalks, said the time was favorable, and stepped out into the moonlight. She began chanting and slowly danced backward, widdershins around the chalked lines. I perched on her shoulder, remaining quiet. Now wasn’t the time for me to be clever.
Gradually, a fog arose, first hiding the garden plants, then the stars, and lastly the house. Only the moon remained, casting a diffuse, silvery light. While all this was happening, the circle began to sparkle, giving off a violet radiance. The mist sang back to us in a woman’s voice. As the singing grew louder, a #yellow flickering glow, like a fire, appeared off to one side.
The voice abruptly ceased singing and spoke. “So he has sent someone after all. Welcome, sister. Join me by my fire where it is warm. We have much to discuss, and my time is short.”

i just finished "red pearls of borneo" (a wonderful and free mystery deduction game!) and am now starting "real vampires" which must be seen to be believed. a polish microindie with bewildering (complimentary) art and fun folklore.
* it's reminding me of "welcome to elk" which i can't stress enough you should ALSO play

Not only does my annotated edition of The Complete Norwegian Folktales and Legends of Asbjørnsen & Moe contain the collectors' notes from the first two original volumes (the folktales), but I have also compiled notes on every single folktale in the first two volumes, and every hulder tale and folk legend in the third volume.
Listen to @rorystarr reading the editor's note on “The Three Billy-Goats Bruse” from the first volume:

Then, of course, it’s just a tiny click to find out more about these huge books:
