Boruta devil, called also a mudguard - devil inhabiting

vaults of the castle in Łęczyca. One should not confuse Boruta with the other, also popular devil

called Rokita.

The Boruta devil is presented very differently, it should not however surprise nobody, because he can assume different forms. His typical and favourite form which he is most often met in is a nobleman. In this form he is a tall nobleman with long, black moustache, black eyes, is dressed in the rich robe covering the tail, and hat covering horns.

However Boruta appeared in other forms and was met in various places:-as a bird with huge wings (Boruta muddy - Mudguard) was met on meadows and bogs,-as large fish with horns (Boruta drowned body) was seen in waters of the Bzura river,-as a dark horse (Boruta horse) galloping through the night on the fields,-he was also met in Łęczyca in the form of the owl (Boruta owl).
