Arne Garborg describes land-draugar coming fresh from the graveyards, and the term draug is even used of vampires.
( In Norway " vampires " is translated as " Bloodsucker-draugar ".
) The notion of mountain-habiting draug is present in the poetic works of Henrik Ibsen ( Peer Gynt ), and Aasmund Olavsson Vinje.
The Nynorsk translation of The Lord of the Rings used the term for both ring-wraiths and the dead men of Dunharrow.
