🌿🌑"Bäckahästen or bækhesten (translated as the brook horse) is a mythological horse in Scandinavian folklore. It was often described as a majestic white horse that would appear near rivers, particularly during foggy weather. Anyone who climbed onto its back would not be able to get off again. The horse would then jump into the river, drowning the rider." ...Scandinavian folklore is the best! 🌑🌿 #illustration #art #instaart #drawing #ink #legend #folklore #backahasten #brookhorse #river #horse #foggy #spirit #sketchbook #inking #scandinavia #sweden #norway #mythology

Finally I finished the brook horse I made for Escaron! ^^ She wrote a book and this is a character from her book. Here it is coming out from the actual book. To be used as a bookstand. This is Escarons version of the brook horse (bäckahäst): An ancient and vicious water spirit that dwells on the bottom of a deep forest lake and has control over all water. Out of age the body has begun to dissolve and become one with the lake - its true apperane that of a rotting corpse. Though most often it hides this and instead take the shape of a beautiful white horse or a man that enthrall its victims and lure them into its domains and an awaiting watery grave.
