From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A spiriduș in Romanian mythology is said to be a "demon incarnate", [1] or a domestic spirit, oftentimes taking the form of an avian familiar, such as hens, crows, or hunting birds.[ citation needed] The purpose of these familiars once they're summoned, is to act as messengers or intermediaries between the master of the home in which the spiriduș was born, and the devil.[ citation needed] The master can use the spiriduș to request from the devil any mortal desire, in return for their soul in the afterlife.
