Patupaiarehe, pakepakeha, spities, fairies, goblins and huldregubben. Those are just some of the names for the mythical little people found in stories around the world. And one scary myth is of them stealing bodies. Bodysnatchers. That's the name of a new art installation at the The Golden Bay Museum, Te Waka Huia o Mohua in Takaka. It concerns the disappearance of the bodies of Scandinavian flax traders who drowned in the Bay way back in 1825. Artist Toy Murchie tells Mark Amery the whole spooky story.
