It's hard to remember exactly who told me but I think it was a kid who was a few years older! The stories from Northern Europe are sometimes a special kind of dark. As a kid you respect and fear the forest because of all the stories. As an adult you kind of feel nostalgic when it comes to the folklore so you may downplay how frightening it actually is to children with a vivid imagination
