@datarama Fascinating. I could listen hours to such stories. 馃槉
We also have these tiny creatures on the continent, with different names. If you leave them gifts, they are helpful, but if you forget them or try to clean them out, they can become very vengeful. We had rituals for the spring cleaning that they don't become angry.
I'm sure @juergen_hubert knows a lot of names for our dust bunnies aka nisse/tomte or Heinzelm盲nnchen/petits lutins!?
