Horga Dance

RPG system: LARP
Participants: 8-20 players

By

✏️Rosalind Göthberg
✏️Eva Wei

Description

“The Fiddler pulled the fiddle from its case and lifted the bow towards the dawning Sunday sun as the people of Horga got excited and forgot about God and the whole world…”

The Horga legend is a traditional Swedish folktale and a song about how the devil, disguised as a fiddler, got all the youth in the Horga village to dance themselves to death. This is a story about possession, virtue and sin, following your deepest desires and facing what you’ve done while being under the devil’s spell.

“…hold back your bow, you fiddler, before we dance away our life and soul and bones! But he will not stop his dance until we all have fallen down dead.”

Played at

Immersion LARP Festival (2025)
