    "The story is a version of a trans-cultural and probably one of the oldest myths that is known worldwide. Evil creatures, who live somewhere under rocks and in dark forests come out to bait people during night-time.They can't handle daylight which would burn them down or turn them to stone. I crossed this with the summer solstice, a phenomen very important to the old cultures in Northern countries. In Finland the sun is practicly up all night during that night in late June."
