- Was imprisoned after stabbing Øystein "Euronymous" Aarseth from the band "Mayhem" to death back in 1993. Vikernes claimed that he killed Aarseth in an act of self-defense because the latter was planning to murder him. He was released from prison in 2009.
- Fascinated with the fictional realm of Middle-earth created by J. R. R. Tolkien, from a very young age. His stage name (Count Grishnackh) is taken from that of a minor character in The Two Towers.

- (regarding his book Vargsmål) It is about Norwegians, Norwegian culture and Norway. But it is also a defense statement for me. The Book is meant to enlighten people, make them more enlightened about their history and race, and make them more enlightened about what is happening to our "civilization".
