Ghost story

The woman on the balcony at Vihterpalu manor

Naine Vihterpalu mõisa rõdul

Vihterpalu, the Ramm family's manor on the Vihterpalu river, is one of those houses where people expect a ghost, and its caretaker told visitors he had not been disappointed. He said he had once seen a woman standing on the balcony gazing towards the river, that windows opened by themselves and that the echo of footsteps was the most ordinary of the house's noises. Once, he said, guests in a bedroom smelt fresh earth in the night and felt someone walking over them as they lay. The restored house and its park stand by the river today.

Eesti keeles

Vihterpalu, Rammide suguvõsa mõis Vihterpalu jõe ääres, on üks neist majadest, kus kummitust lausa oodatakse, ja mõisa valitseja rääkis külalistele, et ta pole pidanud pettuma. Tema sõnul nägi ta kord rõdul seisvat naist, kes vaatas jõe poole, aknad tulid salapäraselt ise lahti ning sammude kõmin oli maja helidest kõige tavalisem. Kord olevat ühes magamistoas öösel tunda olnud mulla lõhna ja magajad tundnud, kuidas keegi justkui üle nende kõndis. Restaureeritud peahoone ja park asuvad tänagi jõe kaldal.
