The Dvorovoy (Russian: Дворовой) is a Slavic spirit of the courtyard.
It was associated with a farmstead's grounds, cattle shed, and stable.
[1] The dvorovoy is similar to the house spirit domovoi, though it is less benevolent.
[2] A dvorovoy is considered more dangerous than a domovoi as it could pose a threat to livestock, particularly animals with white fur.
