Benýšek's Ghost

Tábor hill rises beyond Všemina. Three administrative districts once met here, hence the name Hranice, or Boundary. A headless man's ghost appears, carrying his red-eyed head under his arm. He was called Benýšek. At other times he appeared as a boy or a hare with three legs. He is supposedly the spirit of a priest executed here.
