In this week's episode, we have some old stories of forest nymphs out of Swedish-speaking areas of Finland, and we start delving into a book on anthropologists' experiences with the reindeer people of Siberia.

Today we discuss some more Swedish witch tales, this time from the Swedish-speaking areas of Finland. Then we continue discussing the book "A look from Behind", a study into the experiences of local people who have personally shared theire stories with the author, about their unsettling experiences in the Taiga of Russia.

In this episode, we present some more stories from the Swedish folklore database that we translated, as well as some stories collected from the Mansi people of the Ural Mountains that were published in a book, "A look from behind" by Olga Koshmanova (translated and edited by Hannah Woodford).
