Vântoase are a sort of female spirits in Romanian mythology, which in the popular beliefs, cause duststorms and powerful winds. They live in forests, in the air, in deep lakes, and use a special wagon for travelling. They are also believed to be able to attack children, and the only cure against them is the mysterious "grass of the winds". In other legends, they are believed to be servants of God.
