How to play

Several girls stand in the forest. On one of them, a tail shows for a moment under her dress. Tap her when you see it; tapping the others is a mistake. Spot the huldra in 5 rounds, with at most 3 mistakes. Each round has a time limit.

The story behind it

In Norwegian folklore, the huldra looks like a pretty young woman, but has a cow’s tail and, in many accounts, a back hollow like a tree trunk. The game is made up. Read the story in Huldra: the beautiful forest woman who hides a cow’s tail.
