The Three-Band Broom of Eskilsäter

Värmland · Sverige · Site of legend

The troll called on the broom to let it in — but a broom with only two bands could do nothing.

In Eskilsäter the broom was told of as a guard against evil. When a troll came in the dark to swap a child, it called on the broom to open the door. A broom with three bands could not resist, but a broom with only two answered that it could not obey. For this reason people were careful never to bind a broom with three bands.
