The Clawed Guest at Disseröd

Bohuslän · Sweden · Site of legend

An old man begged a ride, but the horse sweated under the load – and at Disseröd he danced the maid out of her wits with talons like hay-hooks.

A man driving one evening gave a lift to an old fellow, but at once the horse sweated with strain. At Disseröd in Romelanda the old man leapt off and knocked where a maid was cooking alone. He seized her and danced about with claws like hay-hooks, and by morning the maid sat speechless on the doorstep. It had been the Evil One himself paying a visit.
