Haugbúi

इसे यह भी कहते हैं: haugbui, mound-dweller, howe-dweller, hogboon
लोककथा और मिथकमृतमुश्किल से हिलता हैमध्य युग

The haugbúi is the stay-at-home variant of the Norse walking dead: a corpse that lives on inside its burial mound and guards what was buried with it. It is dangerous only to those who enter, which makes it the standard opponent of treasure-seeking saga heroes such as Grettir and Hrómundr. Scholars treat it as a sub-type of the draugr, and the two terms are often used loosely for the same beings. Its literary afterlife runs through Tolkien's barrow-wights into modern fantasy.12
