Better and better. Such a living tradition, great.
Not too many in Norway still believe in the Hidden in their various forms (Hulderfolket is another term, that would be the same as the Icelandic Hildufolk...) - but some old people still do. I had a friend whose mother was certain she had seen one of them in front of their barn one evening...
Care to share any references to source material, if you have any? - on both the Hildufolk and the ghost lore. Would be great! (Sadly, I don't read Icelandic - I suppose I could get through some with the help of a good dictionary, though. But any other Nordic language is OK, and English and German...)
