Gluggagægir - Yule lad

December 21

Gluggagægir (Window-Peeper) is the tenth Yule Lad who comes to town on the night before the 21st of December and departs for home on the 3rd of January. Window-Peeper was known for being probably the creepiest one, he would peek inside people’s windows to see if there was anything to steal.

The next to arrive is Gáttaþefur (Doorway-Sniffer).
