The troll is a universally known character and a common image in Euro/Scandinavian mythology. The troll has made numerous appearances in popular culture, occupying the central role in movies like Troll, Troll 2, and Troll 3. What really puzzles me is this: when nothing even approaching a scientific study has been performed to verify or disprove the existence of trolls, why are people so quick to deny their existence? I'll grant you this: nothing has been done to prove that trolls exist. However, it's at least conceivable that trolls exist, as we can imagine a world in which trolls live yet remain hidden from human scrutiny. Why not adopt a more serious, reasonable, and informed stance on the possibility of the troll existing?
