An old woman [ Nikolai Kutuzov] answers their knocks on the gate. At first, she refuses to put them up for the night, but she finally relents. One gets to sleep in the house, another in the loft, and Khoma gets stuck with a haypile near the pigpen. During the night, Khoma is awakened by the old lady's advances on him.
"Viy" is a very interesting tale, weird and non-sense, having a wonderful cinematography and excellent special effects for a 1967 film.
