Netflix recently released a Norwegian thriller called Troll (2022). In a way it's like a follow-up to one of my favorite films, Trullhunter (2010). In my full video youtu.be/YxcVvEQuky4 video I will attempt to find and explain all the real-world folklore , mythology , legends and other sources in this film as well as explain the ending, the true meaning and origin of the troll itself. I have a theory that you may have missed.

Coraline is one of my favourite stories by Neil Gaiman. While it is an original story, it has some striking similarities to real world mythology, folklore and culture. This video will attempt to explore the potential real-world sources behind Coraline, both the book and 2009 film adaptation, as a way of understanding Gaiman's story better.
