Wunderliche Dinge ereignen sich in der Nacht vor Weihnachten in einem verschneiten ukrainischen Dorf. Am Himmel zieht die Hexe ihre Kreise, kurz darauf ist der Mond verschwunden: Der Teufel will sich in finsterer Nacht am Schmied Wakula rächen, der seine Vertreibung aus der Hölle an die Kirchenwand malte.

Enchanting, tragic, and hilarious fairy tales for adults and children grace these pages.

"Wie ungeduldig du bist!«, sagte sie ihm leise. »Gleich bist du böse! Warum hast du diese Stunde gewählt? Eine Menge Leute treibt sich auf den Straßen herum... Ich zittere am ganzen Leibe..." "Zittere nicht, meine rote Maßholderbeere! Schmieg dich fester an mich!", sagte der Bursche, sie umarmend, die Laute, die er an einem langen Riemen am Halse hängen hatte, von sich werfend und sich neben dem Mädchen vor die Tür setzend.
