The Wooden Man

 

The Egeskov Castle in Kværndrup, Denmark is home to the Wooden Man. He sleeps peacefully under the tower spire upon his pillow. Legend says the Wooden Man must stay or the house itself will suffer. It says that if he moves from his place the castle will sink into its moat on Christmas Night. Several owners believed the legend. They would spend Christmas away, but the current owners celebrate it and even leave a bowl of rice pudding for the Wooden Man. The Wooden Man is a doll the size of a child. 

Countess Nonni loaned the Wooden Man out to the National Museum of Demark. He was weighed, measured, and photographed. The loan agreement was only for 6 months but after 14 days Countess Nani asked for it back.  The castle creaked and groaned and the walls began to shake and once he restored to his pillow the castle became peaceful.

Ghosts: Mylings



Created in Imagin AI

In Scandinavian Folklore, there are spirits called Mylings. These ghosts are of children who were killed by their parents. They're killed in infancy before they can be baptized. Because these unwanted children were not baptized they are left to roam restlessly. They appear as children with dead and ghastly appearances. 

They usually haunt the area where their parents or mother hid their bodies. They are often mischievous. they will transform into animals that humans capture and then trick humans into and change back into a child running away laughing. Sometimes the children would be hidden near their mother's home. Likely under the floor, dirt cellar, or in nearby woods. Mylings can be heard singing in the dark trying to reveal their death. 

Many tales tell of Mylingar wanting revenge and/or trying to kill their mother by sucking milk from the mother's breast and don't stop until it has sucked out all the blood from the woman's body. Mylingar are mischievous children spirits that like to play pranks on people. They could transform into animals that humans capture but then transform back into a child and run away laughing.

One simple way to give a Myling rest is simply by giving it a name. Many of them were likely newborns and were never given a name. Giving them a name will help them feel at peace. 

They have to try to convince someone to bury them in hallow grounds. The Myling will jump on the back of the person and hope for help. This person will carry the Myling to a cemetery, but sometimes it's difficult for the benefactor to do so. The Myling sometimes gets heavier and heavier even causing their benefactor to sink into the ground or suck the life from the benefactor making them weak. If the person is not able to bury them they kill that person in rage.

Sometimes Mylings will want revenge instead. They will do this by trying to kill their mother. They will suck the milk from their mother's breast and don't stop until they suck all the blood from her.

The Elling Woman

 


In 1938 a bog body of a woman was found in Silkeborg, Denmark. The bog helped somewhat preserve the body and some clothing by the bog. The woman would be termed the Elling Woman. She was around 25-years-old and her sex was hard to identify at first because the front of the body didn't mummify as well as the back. She had died around 350–150 BCE.


Her death was believed to have been unnatural. She was either, executed, sacrificed, or murdered. She was hanged with a leather thong. The thong left a V-shaped ligature in her neck. No other injuries or such were linked to her death. After this, she was placed into the peat bog. 

The woman had an elaborate braid. A sheepskin cape was wrapped over her upper legs, and her legs and feet covered by a different sheepskinn cape. She was also wearing a woven belt around her waist that had a sliding knot.
