Klems Kulle Folklore - a photo on Flickriver

At night, the people could see the bonfires burning on the fields. During those nights, it was said that treasures were hidden under the fires. The bonfires were known as "vredeseldar", the fires of rage. Every Christmas Day, a vredeseld would burn at Klem's Hill, and no one dared go there. One year, a peasant from Välsta walked over with a steel ax in his hand. He saw a mound, and in it, he could see two dogs. Fires were burning from their mouths. Under their paws, he saw items of silver. That scared the peasant, who threw his steel ax into the fire. The fire grew bigger and the peasant ran home and told the story. That was a big mistake because you should always sleep one night before telling such a story. The peasant fell ill, but the steel thrown into the fire stopped it from burning ever again at Klem's Hill.

Local folklore from Välsta in Haninge. Photo taken standing next to the old tree yesterday.
