	Orkneyjar - The Huldrefolk - A lost link to the Finfolk?
		Huldrefolk were generally thought of a farmers, their menfolk having superior farms and livestock than their human neighbours.
		People took great care not to trespass on land belonging to the huldrefolk or to build their houses on any place where they were believed to live.
		Although the huldrefolk generally lived on farms and in Norway's forests, there were also a number of huldre islands which were invisible, but which sometimes rose from the sea.

	Wight - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		From the same root stems the name for a class of beings in Scandinavian folklore called vättar, vætter, vetter or vittror (all plural) who represent a later development of the dwarves (duergar) and dark elves (dökkálfar) in Norse mythology.
		In Norway, they were in many places known as huldrefolk, although commonly "huldre" refers to a quite different being.
		Moreover, the huldrefolk sometimes kidnapped infants and replaced them with their own ugly huldre children (see: changeling).

	Elf - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Scandinavian folklore, which is a later blend of Norse mythology and elements of Christian mythology, an elf is called elver in Danish, alv in Norwegian, and alv or älva in Swedish (the first is masculine, the second feminine).
		The Norwegian expressions seldom appear in genuine folklore, and when they do, they are always used synonymous to huldrefolk or vetter, a category of earth-dwelling beings generally held to be more related to Norse dwarves than elves which is comparable to the Icelandic huldufólk (hidden people).
		In Denmark and Sweden, the elves appear as beings distinct from the vetter, even though the border between them is diffuse.

		Apparently that was always the challenge for HuldreFolk, and last night's reunion concert after (more than 15 years?) was a most interesting and successful experiment.
		HuldreFolk operated loosely as a performing group in the mid-80s when bandura player, Victor Mishalow was still resident in Sydney (he now lives in Canada).
		Collectively HuldreFolk ("the hidden folk") took us on a journey which included Yuri's references to his own chilling childhood experiences in Latvia and the Soviet, through a beautiful Hemphill original about Gallipoli from the viewpoint of a young Turkish soldier, and peppered with parody including 'I still call Mongolia home'.

	The Merry Nisse by Brad Steiger
		I have heard many an ill-informed salesperson refer to the benignly grinning troll dolls as Scandinavian elves or nisse.
		To be fair, however, among more contemporary and less traditional Danes there did develop a tendency to confuse the identity of the huldrefolk (elves often involved in changeling tales) with trolls, and to envision them as brownie-like beings.
		Though it is difficult to imagine how any entities involved in baby-napping could ever be considered cute and adorable.

		Hidden people (huldrefolk) and witches also had to be dealt with before a good batch of butter could be churned.
		In the ancient days, as most butter was made in the mountain dairy pastures, the farmers had to bow to these hidden folk who owned the pastures and leave them greetings.
		The smart dairymaid always let the first drops of milk fall to the ground as presents to the huldrefolk.
