Comment
A creature from Swedish folklore, very similar to the kelpie.
He appears as a friendly white horse, luring children to climb up on his back. If more children want to ride he just gets longer and longer. When they are all on his back he runs into the lake to drown them. He is basically the same creature as Näcken.
