Nábrók or necropants Nábrók (calqued as necropants, literally "corpse britches") are a pair of pants made from the skin of a dead human, which are believed in Icelandic witchcraft to be capable of producing an endless supply of money. The ritual for making necropants is described as follows: If you want to make your own necropants (literally; nábrók), you have to get permission from a living man to use his skin after his death. After he has been buried, you must dig up his body and flay the skin of the corpse in one piece from the waist down. As soon as you step into the pants, they will stick to your own skin. A coin must be stolen from a poor widow and placed in the scrotum along with the magical sign, nábrókarstafur, written on a piece of paper. Consequently, the coin will draw money into the scrotum so that it will never be empty, as long as the original coin is not removed. To ensure salvation, the owner has to convince someone else to take ownership of the pants and step into each leg as soon as he gets out of it. The necropants will thus keep the money-gathering nature for generations. Pictures: A replica of a pair of nábrók at The Museum of Icelandic Sorcery & Witchcraft.

Valborg, also known as Walpurgis Night, is a holiday celebrated throughout Europe, taking place on the eve of May Day. Today the evening is one of camaraderie, festivities, and time spent gathered around large bonfires drinking with friends and strangers alike, until the bonfires die down and the night is capped off with pub-runs. But the origins of the holiday are much darker. The day gets its name from St. Walpurga, a mid-late 8th century Anglo-Saxon missionary to the Frankish empire who preached to the pagan Germanic tribes of the area. St. Walpurga was highly venerated after her death, especially in the Medieval Period. During this time, Europeans began lighting large bonfires to scare away the evil witches who supposedly gathered power during that night. This was in connection with St. Walpurga’s reputation for warding off witchlike pagans (pagans were often equated with witches at the time). This eventually led to a violent explosion of anti-witch sentiment throughout Europe. Sweden in particular has a sinister history of witch-hunts which culminated during the 16th and 17th centuries. The starkest example of the witch mania in Sweden are the horrendous Torsåker witch trials. The neighboring parish’s Lutheran minister, Laurentius Christophori Hornæus, was summoned to the area to investigate accusations of witchcraft amongst the populace. When Hornæus arrived in Torsåker, he held sermons in which the attendees were singled out by two boys at the door of the church who would identify the so-called witches by invisible marks on their foreheads. Through this dubious method, 65 women and 6 men were accused of witchcraft. The townsfolk then, using pikes to surround the accused, led the 71 people into the forest, where they were beheaded and burned at the stake. Their cries and pleas for mercy fell upon deaf ears— after the executions, the townsfolk walked away emotionlessly, as testified by Britta Rufina, an eyewitness to the massacre. Text: Austin Main.

The classic runic formula associated with the god Thor is known as "Thor’s Hammer" or Mjölnir. The sequence, Thurisaz - Teiwaz - Thurisaz, combines two powerful runes linked to Thor and one connected to Tyr, amplifying Thor's strength twofold. Tyr’s rune, Teiwaz, awakens inner truth, while Thor’s rune, Thurisaz, safeguards it. Together, this formula serves as a formidable shield—not only against external threats like magical attacks or witchcraft but also against inner challenges and conflicts. It provides comprehensive protection, balancing inner clarity with outer defense. Watch more: https://youtu.be/AYonev_Y004?si=dn1Bp1gqcsz3CzGd
