Before he became King of Norway, Harald Hardrada was a wounded prince forced into exile after the Battle of Stiklestad. He crossed frozen forests, served in Kievan Rus, fought with the legendary Varangian Guard in Constantinople, and spent years earning the wisdom, wealth and experience that would one day bring him home.
THE LAST VIKING KING tells that journey—not as a history lesson, but as an epic cinematic tale inspired by the remarkable life of one of history's greatest Viking leaders. Built on historical events with artistic storytelling, it follows the long road from defeat to destiny.
Sometimes the greatest victories begin with losing everything.
⚔️ Turn up the volume and travel back to the Viking Age.

🌑 THE VICARAGE AT BLACK THORN 🌑
Inspired by a real historic vicarage in northern Sweden, a place that continues to attract visitors because of its haunting atmosphere and the many reported unexplained experiences surrounding it.
The Vicarage at Black Thorn is a dark cinematic melodic power metal journey where the house itself becomes the storyteller. Cold winds, whispered prayers, distant thunder, ghostly voices and a relentless recurring motif — "Black Thorn Still Calls" — lead you through abandoned rooms where every wall remembers, every silence hides a secret, and every step draws you deeper into the darkness.
This is a fictional musical interpretation inspired by a real place, its history, and the legends that continue to fascinate those who dare to visit.
🎧 Turn off the lights. Turn up the volume. Listen carefully... Black Thorn still calls.
