Chrášťany · STORY FROM THE ATLAS

From Krolmus's notes

At about eleven at night a White Lady's ghost walks from Dušníky towards Chrášťany. She also appears near Bílá Hora, walking from Pískovna to the Vojtěška spring, where she disappears. At Na Horkách, a horned devil appears in the form of a hare. A terrible noise can be heard there after sunset. Witches' effigies are burned here on Walpurgis Night. Near the village lies the so-called miraculous Světice spring, where a White Lady also appeared according to legend.
