GJENGANGER SPIRITS OF SCANDINAVIA
- These Nordic spirits kill via a pinch, usually delivered at night.
- The pinched skin will turn blue and cause a wasting disease, which will eventually travel to the victim’s heart.
- Unlike most ghosts, gjenganger look more or less like normal living people, which makes them difficult to spot.
It’s easier to dismiss ghosts in the daylight.
