Sheka in Polish mythology is field spirit that appears as a deformed dwarf with different coloured eyes and grass instead of hair. It appears either at noon or sunset and wear either all black or all white suits. According to local beliefs it leads wandering people in a field astray, give them diseases or ride them over with horses if they are found asleep. It enjoyed pulling the hair of peasants working in the midday. It also helped little children to get lost in the cornfields. If it catches a person, forces to sing. And that lasts for hours.

Segons les creences locals, condueix a la gent errant per un camp, els dona malalties o els munta amb cavalls si es troben adormits. Gaudia estirant els cabells dels pagesos que treballaven al migdia. També ajudava a que els nens petits es perdessin pels camps de blat de moro. Si agafa una persona, l'obligava a cantar durant hores. (ca)
