Wish granting is a popular concept in fiction with numerous tropes, and several magical creatures and artifacts acquiescing to these desires, typically genies and fairies, but witches and wishing wells are not unheard of.
The wishes are commonly defined by the way they're granted. Hopefully they'll be [[BenevolentGenie carried out as you intended]], but watch out if [[LiteralGenie your words are taken literally]], and woe betide you if [[JackassGenie they're deliberately misinterpreted]]...
See also DealWithTheDevil for outright infernal entities who will grant your wish, although they usually have [[YourSoulIsMine a rather demanding price]].
