In German-Scandinavian mythology - the heavenly palace in Asgard for those who fell in battle, a paradise for valiant warriors. Valhalla is ruled by Odin. He selects half of the soldiers who died in battle, and the Valkyries deliver them to the palace. The other half of the fallen are sent to Folkwang ("Human Field") to the goddess Freya.
According to legend, Valhalla is a gigantic hall with a roof of gilded shields propped up with spears. This hall has 540 doors and through each 800 warriors will come out at the call of the god Heimdall for the final battle of Ragnarok. The warriors in Valhalla are called Einheria. Every day in the morning they put on armor and fight to the death, and then they rise up and sit down at a common table to feast. They eat the meat of Sehrimnir's boar, which is slaughtered every day and every day he is resurrected. Einheria drink honey, which milked the goat Heidrun, standing in Valhalla and chewing on the leaves of the World Tree Yggdrasil. And at night beautiful maidens come and please the warriors until morning.
In order to supplant pagan cultures, Christianity and the baptists of northern Europe identified Valhalla with hell. Ases were identified with demons, Einherii (heroes) - with great sinners, the principle of endless bloody slaughter and a daily feast after resurrection from the dead (and the regrowth of severed limbs) - identified with the infinity of hellish torments.

В детстве читала очень интересную книгу "Скандинавские сказания", потом читала ее детям. http://www.livelib.ru/book/1000523548, для общего представления о мифах Cкандинавии , которые сейчас становятся все более популярны в кинемотографе , советую прочесть. Она действительно написана легко и интересно.
