Along with his fellow students Bogi and Magnus, he heard talk of an old farmer who had insisted on being buried with his favorite cow and with a mysterious book that no one knew the contents of. Intrigued, one night they went to the cemetery to wake up the farmer’s soul, however they didn’t know which tomb was his, and so set about chanting spells, waking up all the souls in the hallowed ground until the church was filled with draugr, but without finding the man they were looking for. They carried on until they had filled the church for the third time, and finally the farmer appeared, alongside his cow and his book. There is another legend concerning two young men who asked Eirikur to be his pupils. The priest took them to a cemetery one night, and there he used a spell to invoke a draugr. As soon as the ground beneath the tombstone began to move, the first aspiring student burst out laughing, while the second began to scream with fright. Eirik stopped and spoke to the second young man: “Go back home, my boy, and be thankful that you still have fear and revulsion for these things, as it is right to. As for your companion, on the other hand, it will be my pleasure to have him as a student”. Thordis Markudottir, Stokkseyrar-Dísa, Draugr: Eirikur, who was a priest was the only one to have the courage to warn her: “While you are alive, you will have great luck thanks to your powers,” he told her, “but when you die, you will end up in hell! “Are you really sure, priest?” she asked him; “Come, dance with me!” she openly challenged him. There was a magical duel between the pair, and the texts tell us that, upon the death of Stokkseyrar-Dísa, men were afraid that she could turn into a draugr and return to pursue them even from beyond the grave.
