Der Legende nach war ein Deichgraf bei gefährlichem Eisgang in einem Dammbruch tödlich verunglückt und warnte seitdem als gespenstische Reiterfigur die Menschen der Region vor drohenden Gefahren. Der mystische Deichgraf wurde zur Inspiration für das Schicksal von Storms Protagonisten Hauke Haien in seinem Kampf gegen die Naturgewalten. Ein norddeutscher Klassiker - gelesen von Gert Westphal.
