The Legend of the Elves
"Elves are known to be tiny, dwarf-like
creatures, either male or female, with
pointed ears. They are youthful but immortal
and have magical powers that can control
what you see and experience. Their abodes
are said to be underground, in forests,
or in springs and wells, but no one really
knows about it because they keep their
location a secret! It is also believed
that on the 6th of January the elves light
up their torches and come down from their
secret village in the mountain to play in a
hidden field to celebrate the last day of Christmas."

 "Centuries ago, in the pagan times,
Scandinavian people believed that elves
are house gnomes who guarded their homes
against evil. If you were good, the elves
were good to you, but if you were bad,
the mischievous elves would play tricks
on you. Although these gnomes mostly were
benevolent, they could quickly turn nasty
when not properly treated, so it is told."

"Folks believed that if they left a bowl of
porridge on the doorstep at night, the elves
would be happy and not subject them to their
ornery antics. Throughout the centuries, they
were either loved or loathed. Some people even
believed them to be trolls and cannibals.
The perception of gnomes largely depended on
whether a person was naughty, or nice."

"By the mid-1800's the true purpose of the
elves was revealed by the Scandinavians.
Elves - already a tradition associated with
story telling and magic, assumed a new
significance in the mid-1800's and their
true intention began to be held as nothing
else but to help Father Christmas (Santa Claus)."

The Holiday Spot.com "Fairies are somewhat mischievous, but are the
true friends and helpers of Father Christmas.
It is during this period when the elves began
to be referred to as the "Christmas elves", or
simply "elves", and not "house gnomes" anymore.
Artists such as Hansen and Nystrm completed the
picture of elves for us. It is now began to be
held that the elves help Santa design and make
the wonderful toys and gifts he brings to children.
They were said to have other duties as well."

"Some elves take care of Santa's reindeer
and keep his sleigh in good condition, ready
to fly through the skies on Christmas Eve.
Others help Santa keep his naughty and nice
list in order, and some elves guard the secret
location of Santa's village."

"Elves make sudden appearances in the days
before Christmas, to keep an eye on all children
and see which of them are behaving well and
obeying their parents. They are believed to be
Santa's secret agents and report their findings
back to him. Children who are unkind and misbehave
have their names added to the naughty list and may
wake up Christmas morning to find their stockings
filled with lumps of coal or bundles of twigs!"

"The elves could be helpful now.
Their mischievousness, however, was still
evident in the variety of stories told about
them. Tales suggested that how you were treated
by the elves depended on whether the person was
thought to be naughty or nice! Particularly in
America, the diminutive, green with pointy ears
type are depicted as Santa's helpers making toys
in his workshop at the North Pole."

"At one stage it was thought that the elves
live in Father Christmas' (Santa's) village
in North Pole. However, in 1925 it was discovered
that there are no reindeer in the North Pole
but there are lots in Lapland, Finland.
Since reindeers draw the sleigh of Santa Claus,
he must be living in an area, where there are
a large number of these animals available.
Since then, it is believed that there is a
secret village with a secret passage, somewhere
in Lapland, where Santa, his wife and his team
of elves live."

"Some people say that Santa employs six elves,
while others think that he has nine elf assistants.
Others think that there are as many as 13 elves
living with Santa to help him. Elves are the
children of Gryla and Leppaludi and are very
clever. They help Santa to design toys and
process requests of children that are sent to
them through snail mail or emails. The popular
Western names of the Christmas elves helping
Santa Claus are: 1. Alabaster Snowball
(Administrator of the Naughty & Nice list).
2. Bushy Evergreen
(Inventor of the magic toy-making machine).
3. Pepper Minstix
(Guardian of the secret of where
Father Christmas's village is located).
4. Shinny Upatree
(The oldest friend of Santa and the
cofounder of the secret village in Lapland).
5. Sugarplum Mary
(Head of the Sweat Treats, she is also known
as Mary Christmas. She is an assistant to
Mrs Claus and helps her in the kitchen).
6. Wunorse Openslae
(Designer of Father Christmas's sleigh
and responsible for its maintenance.
He also looks after the reindeers
and it is believed that his reindeers
reach speeds faster than Christmas tree lights)."

"According to some legends and post-Christian
folklore especially in Europe, elves are mischievous
pranksters who make special appearances during
the lead up to Christmas. For example "Albtraum"
is a German word for nightmare which also means
"elf dream". Earlier the word meant "elf pressure"
as it was believed that nightmares are a result
of an elf sitting on the dreamer's head!
Today, elves associated with Christmas are symbols
to remind children to be good and not naughty!"

leaving toys and gifts for every child
is known worldwide."

The Many Faces of Santa
"St. Nicholas is not only assisted by elves
who work at a toy workshop at the North Pole,
But St. Nicholas is an elf himself !
In the Famous Poem written by Clement Clark Moore,
"The Night Before Christmas," - The poem clearly
calls Santa a "right jolly old elf." "Like St. Brighid, Saint Nicholas was an
absorbed pagan deity. Our modern version of
this personage is an amalagation of many old
personifications of a very old elf. Yes, elf.
In ancient times, it was believed that an elf
came and delivered gifts to those who left
him porridge. Ahh...see the connection between
the milk and cookie offerings left by generations
of children? Indeed, the popular figure of
Santa Claus actually owes more to the god Odin
than he does the Christian saint called Nicholas."
-Santa Claus, the Yule Elf, and Odin
by Kimberly Moore.
"He dresses in red, a colour symbolic of the
Teutonic Alfs, or elves. He has one eye with
which he can give knowledge with a single wink.
He has a long white beard and hails from the
ancient lands of the frozen north. The the
twelve days of Yule are special to him.
Nick is one of his many names. Do you see
the similiarity?
-Santa Claus, the Yule Elf, and Odin
by Kimberly Moore.
"It doesn't matter if you are comparing him
to Santa Claus, Father Christmas, whom ever.
Look hard enough and you will see the pagan
deity behind. As for how the Yule elf got
mixed up in popular culture with this figure,
it may be that it was easier to personify this
as a single being. The Yule elf was not a single
elf."
-Santa Claus, the Yule Elf, and Odin
by Kimberly Moore.
"This time of year was in many ways
for the Germanic peoples what Samhain
was to the Celtics, a time when magic
went out into the world, freeing the dead
to walk and elves, trolls, gnomes, et cetera
were free to roam."
-Santa Claus, the Yule Elf, and Odin
by Kimberly Moore.
"Swedish children wait eagerly for
a gnome (ELF) whose sleigh is drawn
by goats, With his red suit and cap,
and a bulging sack on his back, he looks
much like the American Santa Claus."
-(Barth, Edna.
Holly, Reindeer, and Colored Lights,
The Story of the Christmas Symbols.
New York: Clarion Books, 1971, p. 49)
Old St. Nick
"(Saint Nick) or "Ole Nick" is listed among
the fallen angels or devils in the Dictionary
of Fallen Angels. December 25 is actually
"the feast in honor of the birth of the son
of the Babylonian queen of heaven, later called
Saturnaha by the heathen Romans."
(Gail Riplinger, New Age Versions, p. 52)
"Old Nick: "A well-known British name
of the Devil. It seems probable that this
name is derived from the Dutch Nikken,
which means the devil..."
- (Encyclopedia of Occultism
and Parapsychology, p.650)
"Devil: Besides the name Satan,
he is also called Beelzebub, Lucifer
and in popular or rustic speech by many
familiar terms such as Old Nick."
-(Oxford English Dictionary
Vol III D-E)
"Ho, ho, ho! the devil, the devil!
A-comes, a-comes, a-comes upon me..."
-(Dodsley, Robert.

"In these plays, the devil’s common
entry line, known as the "devil’s bluster,"
was "Ho! Ho! Ho!"
(Siefker, Phyllis.
Santa Claus, Last of the Wild Men:
The Origins and Evolution of Saint Nicholas.
Jefferson: McFarland & Company, Inc., 1997, p. 69) "Nick or Old Nick is a well-known
appellation of the Devil. The name appears to
have been derived from the Dutch Nikken,
the devil, which again comes from the
nglo-Saxon nac-an, to slay--for as Wachter
says the devil was "a murderer from the beginning."

THE EVILS OF FANTASY
"Fantasy plays an important role in any
religious curriculum, for the subjective mind
is less discriminating about the quality of
its food than it is about the taste. Thus,
fantasy is utilized as a magic weapon in Satanism.
The Satanist maintains a storehouse of avowed
fantasy gathered from all cultures and from
all ages."
-(Anton Szandor LaVey,
The Satanic Rituals, p. 15, 27)
Elves Associated with Evil
"Elf - If a person wants their help,
he must apply to their chief, the devil
himself [Santa?]. The idea that these spirits
are demonic in origin is in accordance
with the Bible."
-"Goblins and Elves"
(Dr.Kurt Koch, Occult ABC, p. 82, 83)
Definition of "ELF"
"Folklore a tiny, often prankish being
in human form, exercising magic powers
and haunting woods and hills; a sprite.
'Synonyms'- brownie, sprite, leprechaun,
gnome, troll, fairie, fairy."
-Webster's Dictionary The Elves -
Santa's Little Helpers Elves - "A host of supernatural beings
and spirits who exist between earth and heaven.
Fairies or Elves are fallen angels. When God
cast Lucifer from heaven, the angels who were
loyal to Lucifer plunged down with him."
(Rosemary Ellen Guiley,
The Encyclopedia of Witches
and Witchcraft, p. 115)
"elves are "disembodied spirits",
used in "magic and sorcery" and are
"the principal agents in seances."
-(H.P. Blavatsky,
Isis Unveiled, Vol I, p. 262)
 "Elves and Trolls -the word "troll" comes
from the Old Norse word for demon and is
defined by some sources as a 'devil':
a person of great wickedness or maliciousness,
and Of course, Santa has his elves, too."
-(Cathy Burns, Masonic and Occult
Symbols Illustrated, p. 67)
"Elf: 'A small, often mischievous creature
considered to have magical powers.' Although
some of these creatures may appear cute on
the surface, all of them are nonetheless
demonic entities that have their origin
in the occult world."
-(Cathy Burns, Masonic and Occult
Symbols Illustrated, p. 77) "These elves often appear to children
and even play with them. The moment that
an adult comes on the scene, the elves disappear.
If a person wants their help, he must apply to
their chief, the devil himself [Santa?].
The idea that these spirits are demonic in
origin is in accordance with the Bible."

"In the Germanic tradition, elves are
generally evil. Creatures such as trolls,
gnomes, and elves are sanitized references
to demons. It was accepted by most Medieval
theologians that faeries and elves were tied
to the devil."
-Elf and Faerie : The development of Elves
by Peter van Heusden "In Germanic mythology, it is the
fertility god Freyr who is linked
with the elves, and they live with
him in his hall, Alfheim. The Germanic
elves have a lot in common with the
Celtic faeries."
-Elf and Faerie : The development of Elves
by Peter van Heusden "A multitude of mysterious and supernatural
beings had descended into Christianity from
pagan antiquity, and were still coming into
it from Germany, Scandinavia, and Ireland as
trolls, elves, giants, fairies, goblins, and
gnomes."
-The Story of Civilization
The Age of Faith "Nearly everybody believed in some magical
means of turning the power of supernatural
beings to a desired end. John of Salisbury
tells of magic used by a deacon, a priest,
and an archbishop. Some Carmelite monks at
Bologna taught that there was no harm in
seeking knowledge from devils; and therefore
professional sorcerers offered their expert
charms in invoking the aid of demons for
paying customers."

"Dr. Stephen Langdon, one of the great
archaeologists and Assyriologists of this
century, said: "In my opinion, the history
of man's most ancient religion reveals a
rapid tendency from pure monotheism to
extreme polytheism and its focus on evil
spirits. In its most absolute sense, it is
the account of the fall of Man"
