Editing Draugr (section)

=== Haugbúi (mound-dweller){{anchor|Haugbúi}} ===
The ''haugbúi'', meaning "mound-dweller" or "[[:wikt:how#Etymology 2|howe]]-dweller" (composite of {{langx|non|haugr}}, "[[tumulus|mound]]", cognate to English "how, howe, height", and ''búi'', "dweller", from ''búa'', "reside"), the dead body living within its tomb, is a variation of the ''draugr''. The notable difference between the two was that the haugbui cannot leave its grave site and only attacks those who trespass upon their territory.<ref name="Curran-pp81-93"/>

Beings in British folklore such as [[Lincolnshire dialect|Lincolnshire]] "[[shag-boy]]s" and [[Scots language|Scots]] "[[hogboons]]" derive their names from ''haugbui''.<ref name="shag-boy">{{cite web |title=shag-boy |url=https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/shag-boy |website=Wiktionary |access-date=12 January 2023 |language=en |date=29 September 2019}}</ref>

A modern rendering is also [[barrow-wight]], popularized by [[J. R. R. Tolkien]] in his novels, however, initially used for the draugr in [[Eiríkur Magnússon]]'s and [[William Morris]]' 1869 translation of ''[[Grettis saga]]'', long before Tolkien employed the term;{{Refn|Burns<ref name=burns/> citing Gilliver et al.
