An aggressive giant pig from the folklore of Southern Sweden. She has huge fangs, her eyes are burning, and sparks fly from under her hooves. He grunts very loudly. On her back she has a sharp bristle, which forms something resembling a saw blade.

Glusun can be found in the cemetery, but often in other places. Its appearance is described in different ways. It can be black, red, or headless, and can be accompanied by seven or twelve piglets.

The oldest mention dates back to 1587, where he is a harbinger of death.

Glusun is happy to attack someone who performs an annual fortune-telling ritual in order to get information about the future (it was believed that if you walk around on Christmas night, keeping silent and performing a number of certain actions, you can see visions that predicted the events of the next year).
