Episode description

Hi and Hej hej(hey hey)! It's time for Swedish folklore, let's gooo!! We've barely grazed the surface on any Scandinavian or Norse mythology, so for this one, we're keeping it simpler with tales straight outta Sweden.  From the Aurora borealis and its associations, to the Lindworm/Lindwurm-um, yikes, to the Vittra, we've got something almost from A-Z! Kelsey takes on the Lindwurm, a fearsome beast from below that is sure to remind you of one movie or another, and all it's other incarnations. Followed up with a second course full of Northern Lights myths and legends, sure to dazzle and delight. Alanna caps it off with a handful of names like the Nack, a nude dude that hangs out in the river and might drown you, to be confirmed, and the Vittra who may sound familiar if you've listened to episode 91! But they are a little different, because they have invisible cows this time. So lasso up your headphones for an eclectic episode of Sweden's best lore and legends!
