The Three-Bound Broom in Ölme

Värmland · Sweden · Site of legend

The Evil One flew the Rössberg man toward a maid – but the three-legged stool and the broom of three bands were left powerless at the locked door.

At Bjurtjärn it was told of the Rössberg man in Ölme who got to ride with the Evil One over the treetops. The Evil One was to help a maid give birth but first looked in on some card players, and the Rössberg man hurried home ahead and had the maid shut in. 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 standing outside.
