Abandoned Iceland #19: Stories Of The North

Catherine Magnúsdóttir takes us troll hunting in Skagafjörður. There, she hears some spooky stories of wives that have disappeared over the years and finds a hobby-sorcerer. She also visits Siglufjörður, where the TV show ‘Trapped’ was filmed and the location for the dark series from Iceland’s most well-known crime writer Ragnar Jónasson.

Note: This video was filmed before the recommended restrictions dissuading travelling to other parts of Iceland from Reykjavík.

Note: Due to the effect the Coronavirus is having on tourism in Iceland, it’s become increasingly difficult for the Grapevine to survive. If you enjoy our content and want to help the Grapevine’s journalists do things like eat and pay rent, please consider joining our High Five Club.
