312-Norwegian Folklore: Let's Dance

A Norwegian tale about why you should pay your employees a living wage (or at least not beat them and try to have them executed), or else you could end up in a never-ending dance party.

The creature is why you should avoid home improvement projects like the plague...because you could be literally plagued with wood and earth imps.
