Mythical Creatures: Troll (Finland)

The Nordic Troll is a legendary creature deeply rooted in Finnish and Scandinavian folklore, with origins tracing back to 9th-century Nordic mythology. These fearsome beings are described as massive, slow-witted giants standing around nine feet tall, often wielding a club or boulder as a weapon. Known for their brute strength rather than intelligence, trolls are said to inhabit dense forests, mountains, and remote wilderness areas, lurking in the shadows under the moonlight. This vintage-style artwork captures the eerie presence of a troll in Finland's rugged landscape, featuring a crescent moon and deep green valleys.
