My friend, Sigmund, whose mother is Norwegian, spent many summers with this Norwegian grandparents. They would tell him stories about trolls that would, in his words, "Scare me to death! What were they thinking? I was just a little kid!"
Troll dolls are everywhere in Norway. They are ugly things. I thought about buying a few for some of my older nieces, but I am not sure they would appreciate the cultural exchange I am trying for.
