298-Finnish Folklore: Footsteps in the Dark

A home improvement project 800 years in the making that includes way too many wolves, rat parts, and beards. It's the story of the Tomten of Åbo Castle, from Finnish folklore. The creatures are women with varying degrees of faces from British folklore. The one thing they have in common? Drunk, possibly concussed guys are the only people that have seen them. -- Åbo/Turku Castle tour Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPSIBVQ8p3E Membership: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membership Crazy Cat Lady Action Figure: https://myths.link/catlady -- Sponsors: Simplisafe: Get 40% off any new system at https://simplisafe.com/legends Bombas: https://bombas.com/legends with promo code LEGENDS for 20% off your first purchase.
