Religous Beliefs: In the early 8th century and late 9th century Christianity came to Friesland as the Frisians were dominated by the Franks. Most Frisians are still Protestant and some are Christians. Some Frisian beliefs were modified into Christianity, new Christian belief consists of folktales and superstitions consisting of supernatural beings like ghosts, spooks, and the devil. Here's a list of some superstitions.
The bellowing of a cow at any hour was considered as an announcement of death
- as well as the howling of a dog
The milky way to be the path by which departed souls enter heaven
Before death giving a cow to the poor the soul of the dead would be aided by a cow across the fearful Gjallar bridge
All human beings have there own star after death where they could become a god oneself
