 In the region, where I was born, a "Nis Puk" is a good houseghost, he lives under your roof and helps everybody. As long as he lives there, all will go well. But you have to feed him with barley groat and melted butter, if you don't do this, he will left

 Thanks, Ansara. I think every country in Europe has this folklore, each with a different name for their houseghost.
