The Innkeeper's Wife Fetched to the Stump at Ed

Värmland · Sverige · Site of legend

A tramp saw a grand house where the dying innkeeper's wife was lowered through the floor toward a blue flame – but a prayer turned it all to a tree stump.

In Ed parish a tramp came to a large, grand house where the innkeeper's wife from Malöga was expected, though the tramp knew she lay dying. Soon she was carried in by the Fiend and his retinue, laid in a coffin and lowered through the floor toward a blue flame. Terrified, the tramp fell to his knees and said a prayer – and when he opened his eyes he knelt by a tree stump out in the forest.
