Draugr

別名: draugur, draug, dreygur, drög, aptrgangr, afturganga
伝承と神話アンデッドさまざま中世

The draugr is the corporeal revenant of Old Norse literature: a dead man who leaves, or defends, his grave in his own bloated, discoloured body. The Icelandic sagas show it killing shepherds and livestock, emptying whole districts and passing its condition on to its victims. Because ordinary weapons often fail, heroes have to wrestle it down, behead it and burn it to ash. With its physical decay, contagion and need for total destruction of the body, it is the closest medieval European ancestor of the modern zombie.12

その他
The sagas give no single mechanism: malicious, greedy or ill-natured people simply refuse to stay dead, and some victims of a haunting rise in their turn.
なり方
A hard, avaricious or malevolent person dies and walks again; a corpse found sitting upright is a warning sign, and people killed by a draugr may rise too.

Most stay close to their burial mounds, but some range across farmsteads at night; they can also sink into the earth or pass through rock.
