Jorund is a handmade collectible Samhain Harbinger ghost figurine created by The Nordic Ghost Merchants in Denmark, inspired by autumn folklore, old seasonal traditions, and the travelling spirits recorded throughout Merchant accounts.

The Samhain Harbingers are travelling spirits of the turning season.

They arrive at the threshold between autumn and winter, when the evenings draw in, lanterns are lit earlier, and the old year begins to loosen its hold. 

They are not omens of misfortune.
They are witnesses to change, quiet reminders that seasons turn, darkness passes, and you have weathered every hard thing that came before them. 

They stand watch at the edge of the year, keeping their own counsel, carrying with them the hush of late autumn and the strange comfort of familiar shadows.

Jorund is most often recorded on narrow field roads and beside old stone boundaries after the first hard winds of autumn.

Merchant accounts describe him appearing shortly before dusk, when fallen leaves begin moving across the ground without anyone quite noticing the wind that set them going.

He rarely remains for long. By the time the road has gone quiet again, Jorund is usually gone with it.

Some older records simply note:

“The season has begun to travel.”

Jorund the ghost figurine measures 8 cm in height.
