The Apparition at Vítek’s Courtyard

Behind the old-town church in the Prague suburb once stood Vítek’s, or Veit’s, courtyard. Only scant remains survive. At night the ghost of a lady dressed in black appeared here. Later she appeared to a farmhand dressed half in black and half in white, and no one saw her here again.
