Interesting, I've never heard of a Ulfhednar.
Author Bernard Cornwell does a series called the Saxton Tales. (The Last Kingdom tv show on Netflix is based off this series.) The ulfhednar made an appearance in the 11th book titled War of the Wolf.
Wouldn't want to fight one of them on a battlefield... o_o
If you like historical fiction, I highly recommend his books. He tries to stay true to the time periods he writes about. Very good writer.
