Cover art for The Wicker Man lyrics by Iron Maiden

The Wicker Man is a man made of wicker. The British Druids used to put men and women in there as a sacrifice before the Romans arrived. They made a Christopher Lee film about a man who finds out a cult still practice this, and is eventually sacrificed himself.

The song is about that whole thing, i think. Not too sure to be honest with ya...
