Huginn and Muninn – pair of ravens associated with the Norse god Odin whose names mean Thought and Memory; Huldufólk (Icelandic/Faroese) – secret mound/rock dwelling elves; Hulder (Scandinavian) – forest spirit; Huli jing – nine-tailed fox spirit; Huma – regenerative fire bird; Humbaba – lion-faced giant
