Valhalla was, indeed, the hall where Odin received the souls of the warriors who perished in valiant battle. Importantly, Odin ("The Furious") had another hall, Valaskjalf, which contained his throne (Hiloskjalf or "High Seat") from which he surveyed and contemplated the universe. As well, half of the honorably slain in battle were chosen by Freya ("Lady), the goddess of war, to go with her to Folkvangr, translated as "the field of the host" or "field of the army" among other renditions. Please note that accounts of these mythologies are not invariant which can as well be said of the orthography of some of the Norse names which are given here without diacritical marks.
