Baba Vaga was a controversial but revered blind soothsayer in Bulgaria, her powers are even said to have drawn Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev to see her.
Descendants - she died in 1996 - claim to have inherited her supposed ability to see into the future, though even they have said they are sceptical.
Baba had married Bulgarian soldier Dimitar Gushterov in 1942 and the pair moved to Petrich, Bulgaria. It was here where she slowly became known for her future-telling gifts. Dimitar eventually died after descending into alcoholism in 1962.
