The Abaasy or Abaahy (

Sakha: абаасы/абааһы) are demons of the underworld in the mythology of the Sakha (also known as the Yakuts). Either their entire body or just their teeth are made of iron

The concept of the abaasy is so ingrained into Sakha thought that the verb абааһы көр- (to see abaasy) is the everyday term for "to hate" or "to dislike".
