The White Lady of Hohensalzburg Fortress

For today's countdown to Halloween post, a bit of a ghost story, in fact an account of true haunting, Salzburg. To be more specific, the Hohensalzburg Fortress.Of course a place like this needed to be haunted by a ghost or two. You can read more about the White Lady here. This is of course an image of her, as sadly we did not see her when we went there. Maybe because it was daytime? When I learned about the White Lady of Hohensalzburg Fortress, I knew I had one blog post for the countdown. White Ladies are a fairly common type of ghosts in old places, they are both elegant and eerie. Maybe you have one White Lady haunting a historical landmark near you?

There is indeed a white lady who is supposed to haunt the wood next to my local village church. My brother discovered the story last year in a book from 1890....but the story must be quite a bit older than that because the name of the wood is..Lady Wood!
