The Headless One in Flaka

Åland · Finland · Site of legend

On Eckerö in Åland a crofter in Flaka lost his son and turned to old Michelsgubben in Norrby. Defying a warning, he stayed the night in a barn and saw the sorcerer summon a headless figure, which revealed that the boy had fallen into a well. The spirit refused to harm the praying father, and the boy was found in the well. When the sorcerer died, a dreadful din was heard, as of riders in the attic.
