The Deacon of Myrká is Iceland's best-known tale of the returning dead. A drowned clergyman rides out of his grave on Christmas Eve to collect the woman he had promised to bring to the feast, and tries to drag her into the grave with him. It is a local form of the international 'dead bridegroom' story, but the deacon is a solid corpse with a smashed skull. The tale remains a fixture of Icelandic art and literature.1
