What was Hel the goddess of?

Hel isn’t a horned villain—she’s the keeper of the threshold between life and what comes after. In this video, we peel back the distortions to meet the quiet queen of the Norse dead, on her own terms. Explore more legends in the Norse Myths: ⚔️    • Norse Myths: From Creation to Ragnarök   and the 🐉    • Beasts, Legends & Monsters – Mythical Crea...   Hel’s story isn’t fire and brimstone—it’s frost, silence, and balance. We trace her origins from “the grave” as a place, through Snorri’s reshaping, to Baldr’s fateful petition, Naglfar’s ominous launch, and her modern reinvention. Along the way, we compare original texts with archaeology and scholarship to separate myth from… later myths. 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 ⏳ CHAPTERS: 00:00 - The Warrior’s Last Guest 01:09 - Who Wrote Hel’s Story? 02:28 - Before She Had a Face 06:06 - She Was the Place - what Hel/“Helheim” meant 08:55 - From Guide to “Hell” 12:01 - Baldr’s Plea and Thökk’s Refusal 15:00 - Ragnarok Without Her 16:55 - Hel Today: Villain, Presence, or Guide? 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 📚 SOURCES & CREDITS: • Snorri Sturluson, Prose Edda (Brodeur trans.), “Gylfaginning” — primary account of Hel, Eljúðnir, Baldr’s return-condition. https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Pr... • Gylfaginning on Ragnarök & Naglfar (Brodeur trans., Sacred Texts). https://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/pre/... • Éljúðnir (Hel’s hall): etymology & features summary. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89l... • Hel (mythological being): overview, early “Hel as place,” bracteate interpretations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hel_%28... • Etymology of “hell”/Hel (Germanic haljō, “concealed place”). https://www.etymonline.com/word/hell • Naglfar attestations & context. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naglfar • H.
