Ke'lets is the Chukchi demon of death. Myth has it that he hunts men while accompanied by his dogs.
Corrected Description: ' Ke'let refers to ogres or evil spirits who hunt men in Chukchi mythology.
Some possess dogs as large as reindeer and others own fire-breathing reindeer. The Chukchi use the word Ke'le or Ke'let interchangeably when describing these monsters, but usually Ke'let seems to be plural and Ke'le is singular. Ke'lets does not seem to be a proper term for them but is an Anglicized version of Ke'let. There are both male and female Ke'let, all of whom enjoy eating human beings. Like ogres in other cultures, they are often outwitted by fast-thinking humans. Ke'let are sometimes referred to as Re'kkenit (singular form is Re'kken), a Chukchi word for evil spirits.
In 1996 Carol Rose published SPIRITS, FAIRIES, LEPRECHAUNS, AND GOBLIINS-AN ENCYCLOPEDIA, which included an entry for Ke'lets. This work, while marvelous in its scope, is full of erroneous and poorly researched material, as is her subsequent volume, GIANTS, MONSTERS, AND DRAGONS. Too many people using the internet reference these works and thus the only entry for some creatures from folklore to be found on the web, such as Ke'lets, is the one Ms. Rose wrote down in her books. This is unfortunate as it causes the spread of misinformation. Ms. Rose made the mistake of identifying Ke'lets (incorrect grammar) as follows "A fearsome demon in the folk beliefs of the Chukchi people of Siberia. With his dogs he tracks down human hunters and travelers to kill them in the wilderness". As one can see, she has incorrectly labeled Ke'lets, an Anglicized version of Ke'let, as a unique creature and a male. Ke'let are neither unique (there are many of them) nor always male (females are as common as males). Incidentally, Carol Rose took the description for these creatures from an earlier work; GODS AND GODDESSES, DEVILS AND DEMONS BY MANFRED LURKER (1988); a book which also got the description wrong.
