It's my present to you, because I really appreciate that you're a frequent reader of my website. This ebook is all about haunted places in The Netherlands, my homeland. The Dutch are known for being down to earth: superstition is not something we talk about. But, The Netherlands has a rich and turbulent past and the ghosts will not stay silent. "THE DUTCH MAY NOT SPEAK ABOUT ABOUT GHOSTS VERY OFTEN..." In this ebook, we'll take a look at some of our bigger cities, legends, castles, and other places of interest. Unfortunately, we are not able to travel because of Covid-19, but this ebook takes you on a journey anyway. "...THAT DOESN'T MEAN THE GHOSTS WILL KEEP SILENT" I really hope you'll enjoy the ride. And, of course, I hope you will continue following me for more stories and ebooks in the future! Love, Sonja, your paranormal storyteller THE LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS 2 HAUNTED AMSTERDAM Amsterdam can be a pretty scary place. The Dutch capital is one of the major tourist attractions in the country. But do the visitors have any idea what happened on the soil beneath their feet? THE DAM One of the most haunted places in Amsterdam is the Dam itself. Normally, this square is crowded with tourists and pigeons, but this used to be the place where many were executed during the Spanish Inquisition. During this sacred tribunal many Jews were persecuted, tortured and burned to death. It's truly a horrible part of European history. Nishanga via Getty Images "MANY HAVE MET THEIR END HERE" People who were accused of witchcraft were executed here, as well. Many were burned. Some people claim to have seen the apparitions on The Dam, even during the day. From a later period, lackeys have been seen, working around the royal palace. Don't they know they're dead already? Aliaksei Skreidzeleu via Canva THE LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS 3 THE ANNE FRANK HOUSE The next haunted location in Amsterdam is the house where perhaps the most famous girl in the world lived in hiding for almost two years: Anne Frank. Anne was only 13 years old when she and her family were forced to find refuge in this house on the Westmarkt 20. It was the year 1942. dennisvdw via Getty Images Anne and her family stayed in what is now known as "het Achterhuis": a small cluster of rooms, hidden behind a bookcase. The people who gave the family shelter were Miep Gies, Bep Voskuijl, Johannes Kleiman and Victor Kugler. They provided food, clothes and school supplies for the children. Even the famous diary Anne cherished so dearly. Sadly, the family was betrayed. "THE FRANK FAMILY WAS BETRAYED..." The Frank Family was arrested on 4 Augustus 1944. The man responsible for this was most persumably a man by the name of Tonny Ahlers. Mother Edith, sister Margot and Anne were taken to Bergen- Belsen, where they sadly passed away from illness in 1945. Father Otto was sent to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Photo Collection Anne Frank House He survived an published Anne's most important possession, her diary. Miep Gies kept it safely, hoping the girl would return. Westermarkt 20 is a museum today, but people claim it's haunted. People feel as if they are being watched and strange sounds are heard, like footsteps and falling marbles down the staircase. Visitors can get overwhelmed by emotions and there are many coldspots. THE LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS 4 SPOOKSTEEG Amsterdam's Red Light District has two haunted locations. The first location is an alley called "Spooksteeg" or ghost-alley. In the 18th century, long before it was a district of pleasure, a man lived here with his two daughters, Helena and Dina. Dina fell in love with a seafarer. The two decided to get married, but sister Helena wasn't happy: she was jealous of her sister. rognar via Getty Images She also had fallen in love with the seafarer. Helena was so jealous that she pushed her sister into the cellar in a fit of rage. Dina fell down the stairs, broke her neck and died instantly. "JEALOUSY IS A MONSTER: IT KILLS!" Of course, the seafarer was heartbroken, but he found comfort in Helena's arms. Eventually they even got married. When the seafarer lay on his deathbed, Helena decided to confess her crime. She asked for his forgiveness, but he was furious and cursed her soul. Helena's spirit (often referred to as the Ghost of Zeedijk) is often seen here. BLOEDSTRAAT Bloedstraat or Bloodstreet is called this way because the blood of the executed literally ran down the street. Especially during the so-called Blood- Board (1567-1576). This special court was called in life by the Duke of Alfa. Bas Verhoeven via Getty Images The purpose of the Blood-Board was to find, question and execute the men who participated in the Iconoclasm of 1566-1567. The executed men are still here. People have seen shadow figures in the night. THE LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS 5 HET SPINHUIS In a part of the former Saint Ursula monastery, on the Oudezijds Achterburgwal, you will find the so-called Spinhuis. This detention center for women and girls was established in 1597. The goal was to get these women back on track again by making them spin and sew all day, every day. There are more "Spinhuizen" in the Netherlands like in Arnhem, Zwolle and Gouda. But, this one, in Amsterdam, is haunted. "A FORBIDDEN LOVE STORY..." Brbbl via wikipedia CC BY-SA 2.0 According to the legend, one of the priests who worked at the Spinhuis fell in love with one of "... WITH NO the imprisoned girls. Of course, this was against all the rules. HAPPY ENDING" When the love affair was discovered, the two were separated. The priest was sent away. He went mad when he heard he could never see her again and he took his own life right outside the house. The girl remained at the Spinhuis for the rest of her days. The ghost of the priest is sometimes seen on the porch. THE LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS 6 HAUNTED THE HAGUE The Hague is considered the royal city of The Netherlands and also the Dutch parliament resides here. The city, which actually is not a city because it doesn't have city rights, is also a city of law and justice. And that certainly leaves a mark. HET BUITENHOF Tourists all make a visit to Het Buitenhof, which houses the Dutch Parliament. This is located in the center of The Hague. It was constructed somewhere in the 13th century, although the buildings as we know it today, were built in the 17th century. It faces De Gevangenpoort, the old prison of the Hague. DigiClicks via Getty Images Het Buitenhof is located next to De Hofvijfer, a pond where locals used to dump their waste and washed their animals. Keep this in mind, you'll need this knowledge later. People think the adjoined "THE HAGUE IS Binnenhof (the courtyard) was built at the same time as Het KNOWN FOR ITS Buitenhof, but in fact, Het LAW AND JUSTICE. " Binnenhof was built much earlier. All buildings in the center of The Hague are connected one way or another. Perhaps even more literally than you'd think! THE LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS 7 UNDERGROUND NETWORK Recently, a collapsed tunnel network was discovered underneath Het Binnenhof. Unfortunately, it's too damaged and thus dangerous to visit. The tunnel started right under the house of parliament, leading from Het Binnenhof to De Gevangenpoort and even to an old inn named 't Goude Hooft. This underground network was De Ridderzaal "Knights Hall" - Michael Fousert via unsplash most likely used in the transportation of criminals. "MAKE IT SHORT, MAKE IT SHORT..." Het Binnenhof with its stately Knights Hall, was used to execute people who were guilty of high treason. Johan van Oldenbarnevelt, was one of the famous Dutch people who lost his head here. The 71- year old Johan was the victim of a dirty political game by Prince Maurits. The night before his execution, the grand pensionary asked his loyal servant Jan Francken to Entrance to Het Binnenhof - Hubert via commons.wikimedia stay by his side. The old man had been terrified about facing his destiny. When he was executed on the morning of May 13, 1619, he pleaded to "make it short, make it short". Unknown is if he said the words to the executioner or to the loyal Jan Francken. Jan stayed with him till the very end. THE LITTLE HOUSE OF HORRORS 8 DE GEVANGENPOORT One of the oldest buildings in The Hague is the old prison, called De Gevangenpoort. It was built in 1370 and was turned into a prison for heavy criminals in 1420. It remained a prison until 1828 and it was turned into a museum in 1882. Certain riots caused an increase of prisoners, but they thought of AM Minnaard Fotografie via gevangenpoort.nl a solution to house them. When the cells were too crowded (meaning there were more than 15 (!) people inside, some prisoners were relocated. One of these locations was the local inn by the name of 't Goude Hooft.

  • “What Is That?” Off in the Dark, a Frightening, Glowing Shape Sailed Across the Ocean Like a Ghost
    The moon shined down on the Windcatcher as the great clipper ship sailed through the cold waters of the southern Pacific Ocean. The year was 1849, and the Windcatcher was carrying passengers and cargo from San Francisco to New York City. The Windcatcher was one of the fastest ships on the seas. She was now sailing south, near Chile in South America. She would soon enter the dangerous waters near Cape Horn. Then she would sail into the Atlantic Ocean and move north to New York City. Suddenly, one of the sailors yelled to the crew. “Look!” he cried. “What is that?” Off in the dark, a frightening, glowing shape sailed across the ocean like a ghost. The captain and some of his men moved to the front of the ship to look. As soon as the captain saw the strange sight, he knew what it was. “The Flying Dutchman,” he said softly. The captain looked worried and lost in his thoughts. “What is the Flying Dutchman?” asked one of the sailors. 2 3 Pirates often captured the ships when the crew resisted, they Facts about Pirates and stole the cargo without were sometimes killed or left violence.

Introduction The Flying Dutchman is a mythic figure who is condemned to roam the world, never resting, never bringing his ship to port, until Judgement Day. Cursed by past crimes, he is forbidden to land and sails from sea to sea, seeking a peace which forever eludes him. The Dutchman created his own destiny. His acts caused his curse. He is ruled by Fate, not man-made law, or custom, or usage. But today, thanks to man's laws and man's ideas of what should be, there are many like the Dutchman who can find no port, no place to land.

  • Pandora-Eve-Ava: Albert Lewin's Making of a “Secret
    PANDORA-EVE-AVA: ALBERT LEWIN’S MAKING OF A “SECRET GODDESS” Almut-Barbara Renger Introduction The myth of the primordial woman, the artificially fabricated Pandora, first related in the early Greek poetry of Hesiod, has proven extremely influential in the European history of culture, ideas, literature, and art from antiquity to the present day. Not only did the mythical figure itself undergo numerous refunctionalizations, but, in a striking manner, partic- ular elements of the narrative in the Theogony (Theogonia) and in Works and Days (Opera et dies) – for example, the jar, which would later be con- ceived as a box – also took on a life of their own and found their place in ever new cultural contexts. Having been drawn out from the “plot” (in the Aristotelian sense of μῦθος), these elements formed separate strands of reception that at times interfered with each other and at other times diverged. In the twentieth century such myth-elements also developed a distinc- tive dynamic of their own in film. Albert Lewin’s Pandora and the Flying Dutchman (1951) offers a particularly original conception of the Pandora myth by interweaving its elements with the legend of the Flying Dutch- man and plotting it into a story that takes place around 1930.1 It is the story of a young American woman, Pandora Reynolds, “bold and beautiful, desired by every man who met her” – so goes the original trailer of 1951, which opens with some introductory remarks about glamour by Hedda Hopper.2 Lewin’s intermingling of the Pandora myth and the Dutch legend in a love story of the 1950s is in many ways bold and original.

(Pindar) Water. There's too much of it, or too little. It's too salty, or too sweet. It wells up from the ground, carves itself a way through the land, and then it's called a river or a stream. It descends from the heavens in a variety of forms - as dew or hail, to mention just the extremes. And then, of course, there is the all-encompassing water which we call the sea, and which reminds us of the beginning of all things. The English once labelled the Netherlands across the North Sea ‘this indigested vomit of the sea’. But the Dutch went to work on that vomit, systematically and stubbornly: ‘... their tireless hands manufactured this land, / drained it and trained it and planed it and planned’ (James Brockway). As God's subcontractors they gradually became experts in living apart together. Look carefully at the first photo. The water has struck again. We're talking 1926. Gelderland. The small, stocky woman visiting the stricken province is Queen Wilhelmina. Without turning a hair she allows herself to be carried over the waters.

  • C:\Myfiles\Genealogy & Family\Family Books\WW2 Timeline
    A World War II Timeline A Perspective from within The Netherlands Compiled by Jo Kruithof - December 2004 01 12 April 1945 Canadian troops liberate the town of Steenwijk, where I was staying with my family at the time I was six years old then. A World War II Timeline a Perspective from within The Netherlands INTRODUCTION This document is based entirely on information and pictures found on the Internet. It is a brief illustrated timeline of the events of World War 2, as seen from within the Netherlands. When I first came across a basic timeline on the (Dutch) web site http://hetillegaleparool.nl, it occurred to me that, if I ever got around to writing up my life’s story, this would paint a good picture of the background against which I lived my first six years. However, before it would be any use to my descendants, I would either have to translate it, or find an alternative in the English language. Any writings presenting the unique view of the war by Dutch people living in the Netherlands is much more likely to be in Dutch than in English (and a quick scan of the Net supported this notion), so I decided on the translation option. In the process of checking out a few facts, events and names, I came across large amounts of other material, but I have only used those bits and pieces that helped to flesh out my timeline into a record that can be read and understood by those who weren’t there or who haven’t heard the stories from parents or older relatives.

It lacks the supplement, describing the flora and fauna, so often appended to voyages; but it has the connecting links of detailed narrative, the solemn spirit of inquiry into strange lands, the factual records of latitude and coasts and prevailing winds, and (most of all) the maps. I have no quarrel with the present-day emphasis upon the philosophical background of Gulliver's Travels; that is a charac teristic contribution of the scholars of our generation.
