An important direction in the development of the field of mythology in ancient times is associated with the appearance of mythical creatures that, through a magical chain, generalize a community of images similar in properties and appearance. Genres such as archaic epics, fairy tales, and legends developed at a later time on the basis of ancient mythological views. Some mythical creatures in these works are given demonological characteristics. In this regard, this article defines the significance of mythical characters in Turkic folklore, includes the problem of analyzing the negative image of the gluttonous old woman Zhalmauyz kempir, and analyzes the evil nature of this mythological demonic creature characteristic of the Turkic peoples.
