Kormos or Kormoz (Turkish: Körmöz or Körmös) can refer to ghosts or demons in Turkish mythology. "Kormos" means in Turkic languages "does not see" or "blind." "Blind" is also understood of as "mentally ill". Among Siberia Turkic mythology, Kormos is a devilish entity, living in the underworld. Since the souls after death can turn into Kormos, they are associated with ancestral spirits.[1] Yakuts apply Yor for the unsatisfied dead, who roam the earth.[2] Other names are used for them are Alban, Cahık, Ozor, and more.[3]

The good souls protect their families and are under Ülgens command. The evil souls, who commonly dwell in the underworld, are controlled by Erlik. A third type of ghosts are those who are neither good nor evil, but simply suffering in a pathetic state.[4]

Demonic Kormos, also called "Sokor Körmös" (blind angel),[5] are the servants sent by Erlik to harm people and attempt to pull them into the underworld. However, if good outweighs the evil in this soul, the soul can escape the Kormos and ascend to heaven.[6] The idea of Kormos as an evil angel, may be influenced by the Islamic idea of fallen angels.[7]
