Attributes[]
The Buschgroßmutter is a forest spirit living in the deepest woods which shows herself to humans only once every hundred years. She is as old as the hills, her appearance being small and ducked, wrinkly and ugly. She has staring eyes and is sometimes said to have an iron head, a typical demonic feature. The Buschgroßmutter's hair is long, as white as snow, but messy and full of lice. The Buschweibchen holds a gnarled stick in her hand. Her feet are overgrown by moss and she walks in a wavering manner. She has tied her apron as if she were transporting something in it and also carries a basket on her back. The Buschmutter is ugly, wearing a tatterered dress and having dishevelled hair, holding a crutch.
