The Rössberg Man and the Three-Legged Stool in Ölme

Värmland · Sweden · Site of legend

The Evil One flew the Rössberg man over the treetops toward a maid – but three-legged furniture cut short his power at the bolted door.

At Bjurtjärn it was told of the Rössberg man in Ölme who got to ride with the Evil One high over the treetops. The Evil One was off to help a maid give birth but first looked in on some card players, and the Rössberg man hurried home ahead. With the mistress's help the maid was kept inside, and when the Evil One called on the three-legged stool and the three-bound broom to open, a leg and a band were cut away, leaving him powerless outside.
